 # Add entities to threat intelligence in Microsoft Sentinel
 
 During an investigation, you examine entities and their context as an important part of understanding the scope and nature of an incident. When you discover an entity as a malicious domain name, URL, file, or IP address in the incident, it should be labeled and tracked as an indicator of compromise (IOC) in your threat intelligence.
 
-For example, you discover an IP address performing port scans across your network, or functioning as a command and control node, sending and/or receiving transmissions from large numbers of nodes in your network.

-Microsoft Sentinel allows you to flag these types of entities right from within your incident investigation, and add it to your threat intelligence. You are able to view the added indicators both in **Logs** and **Threat Intelligence**, and use them across your Microsoft Sentinel workspace.

 ## Add an entity to your threat intelligence
 
-The new [incident details page](investigate-incidents.md) gives you another way to add entities to threat intelligence, in addition to the investigation graph. Both ways are shown below.

You can use it to add entities to your threat intelligence indicator lists, making them available across your workspace.
