Getting Started with Investigate

Investigate provides search functionality through Smart Search and Pattern Search. Use Smart Search to search directly for a certain domain, IP, AS, file hash, or email address. An Investigate Pattern Search enables you to flexibly search for a domain using regular expression (RegEx) pattern search. An Investigate search generates multiple, graphical views of security scores and threat indicators.

To get started with Investigate, log into Umbrella at https://investigate.umbrella.com with your Umbrella Investigate account credentials. For information about managing your accounts, see Manage the Investigate Only User Role.

Smart Search Best Practices

To generate search results, enter a fully-qualified domain name, URL, IP address, hash, or email address in the Smart Search search bar. If you enter a malformed or incomplete destination, Umbrella Investigate raises an error and returns an example of the correct syntax to use in order to complete a successful search.
