Description

Very useful for hunting can be the number of flowbits present in a protocol log or alert.
Details: https://www.stamus-networks.com/blog/suricata-threat-hunting-fundamentals.

The suggestion is to have a simple key/value added to the JSON logs indicating number of flowbits present.
This can also be achieved via SIEM aggregations but if present in the logs it enables for more detection formulas and mechanisms.

Would probably make sense to add for xbits, etc.

Elastic does have the value_count agg though.
