Cortex XDR - Solutions for log collection without an official integration

L1 Bithead

Has anyone found a good approach for collecting logs from an API when there isn't an official Cortex XDR integration?  For example, Automox has released a Splunk and DataDog app, but the custom collection in Cortex XDR isn't a good fit.  We use the Broker VM for syslog, but most SaaS apps don't support syslog of course.

What are people using to get "unsupported" logs into Cortex (without upgrading to XSIAM)?

Hi @mgreer, thanks for reaching us using the Live Community.

 

XDR can't connect to an unsupported API to retrieve the events. You can create a HTTP Custom collector and send the logs to the tenant using the API and saving them in the configured dataset.

More info here: https://docs-cortex.paloaltonetworks.com/r/Cortex-XDR/Cortex-XDR-Pro-Administrator-Guide/Set-up-an-H...

 

Keep in mind that this will only store the events and no stitching or correlation with the alerts will be done. If you want to correlate events you can do it manually.
