XQL query for browsers installed or in usage on host + Host_name.

[ori_stolero]

Hi,

I need to find which browsers the users using for daily tasks.
I'm looking for a XQL query for browsers installed or browsers in usage by the user + hostname,
The date that the app installed and the version is not so important as long as i get the browser name or vendor like chrome, Firefox etc.
I can provide browsers list to search for or any other way to find it.

I tried a few query but once I check the result it didn't was accrued.

B.Regards,
Ori

Hi @ori_stolero ,

Can you share what you have tried already ?

I was thinking something along these lines:

dataset = xdr_data
| filter lowercase(action_file_path) in ('c:\program files\google\chrome\application\chrome.exe', 
                                         'c:\program files\mozilla firefox\firefox.exe', 
                                         'c:\program files (x86)\microsoft\edge\application\msedge.exe',
                                         'c:\program files\internet explorer\iexplore.exe',
                                         'c:\program files\opera\launcher.exe',
                                         'c:\program files\safari\safari.exe')
| fields agent_hostname, action_file_path, action_file_name, action_local_ip, action_remote_ip

This query filters the xdr_data dataset for specific paths where browser executables are typically located. The lowercase function ensures the path comparison is case-insensitive. You can add or modify paths according to the actual installation directories used in your environment.

The "fields agent_hostname, action_file_path, action_file_name, action_local_ip, action_remote_ip" specifies the fields to include in the output, such as the hostname, file path, file name, and local/remote IP addresses involved in the action.

Hope this helps,

-Kim.

Hey,

Thank you for your reply,
The Issue is that if the application installed too long (for Ex a year ago) the query don't find it,
i tried to run this query for last month,

dataset = xdr_data
| filter lowercase(action_file_path) in ("C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Vivaldi\Application\Vivaldi.exe")
| fields agent_hostname, action_file_path, action_file_name, action_local_ip, action_remote_ip

But it didn't give any results.
Any Idea will be appreciated?

I query that I tried is this one;
