VendorNozomi Networks Inc
AuthorCrowdStrike
Version1.2.0
Minimum LogScale Version1.142.0

Improve your awareness of anomalous traffic from devices in your network by ingesting Nozomi Networks logs into LogScale.

This package provides a parser for Nozomi IDS events in JSON format.

Breaking Changes

This update includes parser changes, which means that data ingested after upgrade will not be backwards compatible with logs ingested with the previous version.

Updating to version 1.0.0 or newer will therefore result in issues with existing queries in for example dashboards or alerts created prior to this version.

See CrowdStrike Parsing Standard (CPS) 1.0 for more details on the new parser schema.

Follow the CPS Migration to update your queries to use the fields and tags that are available in data parsed with version 1.0.0.

Configurations and Sending The Logs to LogScale

See Nozomi Syslog Specification manual for information on how to send Nozomi's logs to Falcon Log Collector.

Installing the Nozomi IDS Package in LogScale

Find the repository where you want to send the logs, or create a new one.

  1. Navigate to your repository in the LogScale interface, click Settings and then Packages on the left.

  2. Click Marketplace and install the LogScale package for Nozomi (i.e. nozomi/ids).

  3. When the package has finished installing, click Ingest tokens on the left (still under the Settings, see Ingest Tokens).

  4. In the right panel, click + Add Token to create a new token. Give the token an appropriate name (e.g. the name of the server the token is ingesting logs for), and leave the parser unassigned.

    You can also assign the parser to the LogScale Collector Configuration as described in the documentation Sources & Examples nozomi-ids parser to it.

    Before leaving this page, view the ingest token and copy it to your clipboard — to save it temporarily elsewhere.

    Now that you have a repository set up in LogScale along with an ingest token you're ready to send logs to LogScale.

  5. Next, configure the Falcon LogScale Collector to ship the logs from your syslog server into LogScale. Follow LogScale Collector Install Falcon Log Collector and Configure Falcon Log Collector. LogScale Collector documentation also provides an example of how you can configure your syslog datasource, see Sources & Examples.

Configuring Nozomi to Send Logs

To configure Nozomi to properly send logs to LogScale:

  1. Using your Nozomi credentials, log in to the Guardian console.

  2. Select Administration→Data Integration.

  3. Click +Add on the right side of the screen.

  4. Select the Common Event Format (CEF) option from the drop down.

  5. Enter the appropriate host information. For example: 

    tcp://$LOG_COLLECTOR_URL:514

  6. Select Enable Sending Alerts and/or Enable Sending Audit Logs and/or Enable Sending Health Logs.

  7. Click New Endpoint. Make sure that the port configured in syslog matches the port in the LogScale Collector Configuration.

Verify Data is Arriving in LogScale

Once you have completed the above steps the CTD data should be arriving in your LogScale repository.

You can verify this by doing a simple search for #Vendor = "nozomi" | #event.module = "ids" to see the CTD events.
