Description
Related #993
Rules and data may be represented in different formats. For example, a rule can be written referencing CloudTrail fields, but the incoming data could be OCSF-normalized CloudTrail logs. To bridge this gap, the SRE will support a concept of translating field names between formats.
Sub-Tasks
- Create model for translations
- Create translation reader to read translations from a file
- Wire translations into rule parsing process
