Kaspersky Security Center Integration

Hi,

I would like to know whether FortiSIEM supports Kaspersky Security Center Syslog collection. I haven't seen anything related to Kaspersky in External Systems Configuration Guide (FortiSIEM Documentation) but configured the syslog forwarding as mentioned in Kaspersky online help (https://help.kaspersky.com/KSC/11/en-US/151333.htm) since there was a parser,


But when I look into the parser it is referring to CEF or it is looking for 2 Keywords,


Moreover, in the Kaspersky Security Center it only shows these CEF Formats and Syslog format which I have configured with.

What would be the correct format to choose?

Regards,
Isuru

    Hi Isuru

    FortiSIEM does not contain a parser for the syslog format as of now, only CEF is supported. I don't know what the difference between ArcSight CEF and Splunk CEF is.
    Be aware that Kaspersky CEF log export requires an advanced license from Kaspersky (cf. https://media.kaspersky.com/en/business-security/kaspersky-endpoint-security-for-business-datasheet.pdf). With the select license, Kaspersky will only send out in default "Syslog" format, i.e. non-CEF, and FortiSIEM won't be able to parse it.

    Hi Isru,

    You should be able to send Kaspersky CEF format syslog to FortiSIEM.

    The default parser should work, however, this is a slightly modified version and parsing some more fields. Clone the existing parser, paste this new one in. Then make sure you Apply it.

    Let me know how you get on.

    Thanks
