Remember display settings of tables in portal

The Lastline portal now remembers a number of display options that a user can select for key tables in the interface. This includes:

  • Which columns are shown or hidden
  • Relative width of columns
  • Sort order
  • Number of rows to display per page

The settings are stored in the browser's local storage, so that they persist across user sessions. A user can reset a table to its default display options by selecting the "Reset table" option in the hamburger menu of the table.

Domain resolution information in infected host view

The host view that shows all activity on a specified host in the protected network has been extended to include information on DNS resolutions performed by the host in question.

Endpoint events view in portal

A new endpoint events view displays information on events detected on the endpoint. Currently, this is limited to verification of IoCs (Indicators of Compromise) obtained through the integration with Tanium IoC Detect, or pushed to the Lastline API.

E-mail analysis improvements

  • Improved logging on sensor about email delivery and destination address rejection.
  • Improved logging on sensor about attachment filetype.
  • Better handling of some non-RFC emails in MTA mode.

URL analysis improvements

Reports for URL analyses now include strings that have been observed during an analysis. They are listed in the "Memory contents" section of the report.
