Entity lookup
An Entity Lookup (or search) is the starting point for an investigation if you have very little information to work with.
|
You can start an Entity Search by entering an IP address or domain in the Search field in the navigation menu at the top of the portal. |
To perform an entity lookup:
-
Go to Investigations > Entity Lookup.
-
Enter an IP address or a domain name in the search field. Separate Multiple IP addresses and domain names by spaces.
- Click the date picker to select the time range. The default is Last Seven Days. The maximum is 90 days.
If you are pivoting to the Entity Lookup from a page with a time range of more than the last 90 days, the date range picker will display a yellow border around the date field and default to the Last Seven Days.
- Click Search. The following results are returned.
Network Intelligence Network traffic by service, by device, and source addresses interacting with the entity
Entity Intelligence WHOIS, IP History, Registrar History, Passive DNS Security Intelligence Associated VirusTotal Detections, VirusTotal Detections Over Time, Detections, and Observations, 
You can view the Entity Panel by clicking the IP address at the top-left of the page next to Entity information for <IP address>.
- (Optional) If multiple IP addresses or domain names are looked up, right-click on a result and select Entity Lookup to view the intelligence panes.
- (Optional) Click Investigate to launch the new investigation.
To perform a bulk entity export:
-
In the search field, enter IP addresses or a domain names separated by spaces.

Click Search.

Passive DNS links on the entity panel function like normal links. Clicking the link replaces the entity panel with the panel for the clicked on element.
