Add event.kind: alert to Parsed Data for Mimecast Integration

Description

Currently, the Mimecast integration does not include event.kind: alert in the parsed data mapped to ECS. As a result, alerts are not visible in Kibana since event.kind: alert is a required field for External Alerts. While event.module is correctly mapped, event.kind: alert is missing.

At the moment, the only values assigned to event.kind are:

  • event
  • enrichment
  • pipeline_error

Impact

  • Alerts are not visible in Kibana under External Alerts.
  • Users cannot effectively use Kibana’s detection and alerting workflows for Mimecast-generated alerts.
  • Breaks consistency with ECS mapping for third-party alerts.

Proposed Solution

  • Ensure event.kind: alert is correctly assigned to relevant Mimecast alert events.
  • Validate that all alert events from Mimecast include both event.kind and event.module.
  • Update documentation if necessary to reflect this requirement.

Acceptance Criteria

  • event.kind: alert is correctly mapped for all relevant Mimecast alerts.
  • Alerts are visible in Kibana under External Alerts.
  • Integration tests verify the presence of event.kind: alert.
