Syslog

As you perform various actions in your Cybereason platform, the platform’s updates the syslog to provide an audit trail of the users that took various actions, as well as details about the action. As a result, you can send the information in the syslog to other platforms to use in your various other security workflows and management systems, or use the information for auditing and compliance.

You can use the logging feature for a variety of purposes:

  • Workflow management: Track the process from MalOp creation to remediation.

  • Team member monitoring: If an employee is no longer with the company, review their action history and make sure you removed their access abilities.

  • Investigation: If a MalOp status is incorrectly changed to Not Relevant, investigate the user action log to see who made the change.

  • Alerts: Set up alerts in your SIEM to track MalOps or suspicious user behavior, such as machine isolation from a user who should not be isolating machines, or to ensure you set up permissions correctly.

  • Compliance checking: If certain actions require supervision, send logs of certain actions to the appropriate reviewer.

Review what information you can use in the syslog. There is no automatic integration for consumption of the syslog messages. However, once you understand what details the syslog contains, you can build your own custom system to consume the data from the syslog.

In addition, you can customize the syslog stream (for example, if you would like to forward the syslog messages to your own syslog server) with the help of Technical Support.
