Carbon Black Cloud: What are the differences between the searchable timestamps in the console?

Environment

Carbon Black Cloud Console: All Versions

Question

Why is there a difference between backend_timestamp, created_timestamp, device_timestamp and event_timestamp?

Answer

event_timestamp
  • Timestamp reported by the sensor when the event occurred
device_timestamp
  • Sensor-reported timestamp of the batch of events in which this record was submitted to the Carbon Black Cloud console
backend_timestamp
  • Timestamp in which Carbon Black Cloud processed and enabled the data for searching; occurs after ingress_time; may differ from device_timestamp by a few minutes due to asynchronous processing
created_timestamp
  • Timestamp that is created every time the process analysis page is loaded and is used internally for CBC systems and not relevant to customers
