FortiSIEM TrendMicro syslog Parser

[george_omondi]

Hi Guys,

So initially we were ingesting TrendMicro logs via the API but we were not getting anything meaningful so we switched to syslog and now we are getting somewhere. The problem is when we were using the API, the logs were being parsed well but when we switched to syslog then now nothing is being parsed it defaults to GenericCEFParser. below is a sample of the syslog we are getting. Any pointers will be appreciated

Hi George, the Vision One integration and events pulled via the API are in a different format from the CEF events, there currently is no parser for the CEF format.

If you can elaborate on the issue with the API integration, we can see what improvements we can make. Would a remote session be quicker? If so, please message me directly, and we will have a look.

Thanks for the feedback.

Hello,

Thank you for your timely response. Actually the limitation we were getting from the API integration is not from FortiSIEM but rather from TrendMicro. The free API connection only gives limited data that's not of any use to us and if we are to get more robust logs we are required to pay for the API which at the moment is not an option for us. We thought if we could get the logs via syslog would be much better. Seems we will have to re-strategize

Can you private message me a broader sample of logs that you have exported out of your FSM in CSV format, I'll review them.

Is this what you configured in Vision One? https://docs.trendmicro.com/en-us/documentation/article/trend-vision-one-__syslog-forwarding-2

[george_omondi]

yes that's what i configured. Sure let me send you a the csv
