Log Forwarding to Crowdstrike SIEM

Is there anyway to forward logs to Crowdstrike SIEM by using API

Hello @Naga_Chaturvedi

thanks for posting.

Based on Crowdstrike documentation: paloalto-next-gen-firewall the recommended way is to install Log Scale Connector. Log Scale Connector listens for incoming Syslog traffic from Panorama, then Palo Alto Networks Data Connector will send logs to Crowdstrike Next-Gen SIEM.

Alternatively, I can think of to set up in Panorama HTTP log forwarding profile: forward-logs-to-an-https-destination and HTTP Event Connector on Crowdstrike side: hec-http-event-connector-guide.

Kind Regards

Pavel

Quick question, where do you install the Log Scale Connector on a separate server that will collect the logs from PAN?

[Naga_Chaturvedi]

There are two options either to use existing Log Scale Connector or can build a seperate Log Scale Connector which integrate with CS SIEM. 

Both will work

I did check within CrowdStrike and we don't have any Log Scale Connector build. That means I have to download Log Scale Connector from CrowdStrike on my Log server and install it then configure it. That logs sever will communicate with palo alto to forward logs to CrowdStrike.
