What should be done after installing the necessary add-ons for normalizing data in Enterprise Security?

To ensure that the add-ons properly normalize data in Splunk Enterprise Security, it is essential to configure them according to their specific README or documentation after installation. These documents typically contain critical information about how the add-ons should be set up, including configuration settings, mandatory fields, and additional dependencies that may be required for optimal functioning.

By following the guidelines provided in the documentation, you can ensure that the add-ons interact correctly with the data sources and Splunk’s indexing processes. This step is crucial because each add-on may have unique requirements that facilitate the transformation and enrichment of event data, leading to accurate and meaningful detections and alerts in the Enterprise Security environment.

This configuration step is a necessary part of the implementation workflow to achieve effective data normalization and thus prepare the environment for comprehensive analysis and security monitoring.
