Impact
Impact consists of techniques that adversaries use to disrupt availability or compromise integrity by manipulating business and operational processes. Techniques used for impact can include destroying or tampering with data. In some cases, business processes can look fine, but may have been altered to benefit the adversaries’ goals. These techniques might be used by adversaries to follow through on their end goal or to provide cover for a confidentiality breach.

Service Stop
Adversaries may stop or disable services on a system to render those services unavailable to legitimate users. Stopping critical services can inhibit or stop response to an incident or aid in the adversary's overall objectives to cause damage to the environment. Adversaries may accomplish this by disabling individual services of high importance to an organization, such as MSExchangeIS, which will make Exchange content inaccessible.

Correlation
Identify the root cause and solve the issue
If the following pattern or patterns match an ingested event within the given time window in seconds, trigger an incident.
600 seconds
If the following defined pattern/s occur within a 600 second time window.
Down
This is the named definition of the event query, this is important if multiple subpatterns are defined to distinguish them.
This is the query logic that matches incoming events
eventType = "Cisco-Meraki-deviceGoesDownTrap"
This defines how matching events are aggregated, only events with the same matching attribute values are grouped into one unique incident ID
reptDevIpAddr, hostMACAddr, hostName
This is most typically a numerical constraint that defines when the rule should trigger an incident
COUNT (*) >= 1
This section defines which fields in matching raw events should be mapped to the incident attributes in the resulting incident.
The available raw event attributes to map are limited to the group by attributes and the aggregate event constraint fields for each subpattern
hostIpAddr = Down.reptDevIpAddr,
hostName = Down.hostName,
hostMACAddr = Down.hostMACAddr
