Info

SIEM (SECURITY INFORMATION AND EVENT MANAGEMENT)

Specifies the type of Syslog Server or SIEM that events are to be sent to. PROTOCOL This must match what you have configured on your Syslog server.

Info

PROTOCOL

This must match what you have configured on your Syslog server. The choices are UDP or TCP. UDP is generally not recommended as it does not guarantee message delivery. TCP is the default and we encourage customers to use it.

Info

TLS/SSL

Only available if the Protocol specified is TCP. TLS/SSL ensures the Syslog message is encrypted in transit from CylancePROTECT to the Syslog server. We encourage customers to checkmark this option. Be sure your Syslog server is configured to listen for TLS/SSL messages.

Info

IP/DOMAIN

Specifies the IP address or fully-qualified domain name of the Syslog server that the customer has setup. Consult with your internal network experts to ensure firewall and domain settings are properly configured.

Info

PORT

Enter Port 14015 log relay will listen for messages.

Info

SEVERITY

Specifies the severity of the messages should appear on the Syslog server. This is a subjective field, and you may set it to whatever level you like. The value of severity does not change the messages that are forwarded to syslog.

Info

FACILITY

Specifies what type of application is logging the message. The default is Internal (aka Syslog). This is used to categorize the messages when they are received by the Syslog server.

Click on Test Connection to test the IP/DOMAIN, PORT, AND PROTOCOL settings. If you entered valid values, after a couple of moments, you should see a success confirmation popup:
