The two states of Correlation engine are
Enable
Disable .
When the Correlation Engine is enabled, it processes active correlation Rules. When in a disabled
state, all its in-memory data is preserved and no new correlation events are generated. Disabling the
Correlation Engine does not affect other parts of the Sentinel system.
Correlation rules are stored in the Sentinel database. When you activate the Correlation Engine in
Sentinel Control Center, it requests the deployment information and rules from the database.
Changes to a rule are not reflected in the Correlation Engine until one of the following things
happens:
