Prerequisites
To create API keys, you must have the account admin role or otherwise have write permissions for API keys in the Lacework Console.
Step-by-Step Configuration Procedure
Instructions on the 3rd Party Solution
Create Lacework Credentials
Create a service user
In the lacework console:
-
Go to
Settings
-
In the settings, go to
Access Control
>Users
>Account level
and click+ Add New
-
To create a service user:
- Select
Service user
as user type - Give the user a name and an optional description
-
Click
Next
-
Select
Read-Only User
as user group -
Click
Save
- Select
Create API keys
In the Lacework console:
-
In the
Settings
, go toConfiguration
>API keys
>Service User API Keys
and click+ Add New
-
To create an API Key:
- Give the key a name and an optional description.
-
Click
Save
.
Download the generated API key file and open it in an editor to view and use the key ID and generated secret in your API requests. You can create up to 20 API keys.
Instruction on Sekoia
Create an intake
Go to the intake page and create a new intake from the Lacework Cloud Security
format.
Pull events
To start to pull events, you have to:
- Go to the Playbook page.
- Click on
+ PLAYBOOK
and chooseCreate a playbook from scratch
. - Give it a name and a description and click on
Next
. - In
Choose a trigger
, selectFetch new logs from Lacework
. - On the right sidebar, in "Using which account ?", select
+ Add new account
. - Write a
name
and set up the account configuration with the account, the keyId and the secret of your API Key. - In the
Trigger Configuration
section, click onCreate new configuration
. - Write a
name
, choose afrequency
- Default is60
-, paste theintake_key
associated to yourLacework Cloud Security
intake and click onSave
. - On the top right corner, start the Playbook. You should see monitoring messages in the
Trigger logs
section. - Check on the Events page that the Lacework logs are being received.
Raw Events Samples
In this section, you will find examples of raw logs as generated natively by the source. These examples are provided to help integrators understand the data format before ingestion into Sekoia.io. It is crucial for setting up the correct parsing stages and ensuring that all relevant information is captured.

Detection section
The following section provides information for those who wish to learn more about the detection capabilities enabled by collecting this intake. It includes details about the built-in rule catalog, event categories, and ECS fields extracted from raw events. This is essential for users aiming to create custom detection rules, perform hunting activities, or pivot in the events page.
Related Built-in Rules
The following Sekoia.io built-in rules match the intake Lacework Cloud Security. This documentation is updated automatically and is based solely on the fields used by the intake which are checked against our rules. This means that some rules will be listed but might not be relevant with the intake.
SEKOIA.IO x Lacework Cloud Security on ATT&CK Navigator
Account Added To A Security Enabled Group
Detection in order to investigate who has added a specific Domain User in Domain Admins or Group Policy Creator Owners (Security event 4728)
- Effort: master
Account Removed From A Security Enabled Group
Detection in order to investigate who has removed a specific Domain User in Domain Admins or Group Policy Creator Owners (Security event 4729)
- Effort: master
Computer Account Deleted
Detects computer account deletion.
- Effort: master
Cryptomining
Detection of domain names potentially related to cryptomining activities.
- Effort: master
Domain Trust Created Or Removed
A trust was created or removed to a domain. An attacker could perform that in order to do lateral movement easily between domains or shutdown the ability of two domains to communicate.
- Effort: advanced
Dynamic DNS Contacted
Detect communication with dynamic dns domain. This kind of domain is often used by attackers. This rule can trigger false positive in non-controlled environment because dynamic dns is not always malicious.
- Effort: master
Exfiltration Domain
Detects traffic toward a domain flagged as a possible exfiltration vector.
- Effort: master
Lacework Cloud Security Critical Severity Alert
Detects when a critical alert severity is raised by Lacework. This severity level might indicates a suspicious change in configuration or policy violation.
- Effort: master
Lacework Cloud Security High Severity Alert
Detects when a high alert severity is raised by Lacework. This severity level might indicates a suspicious change in configuration or policy violation.
- Effort: master
Lacework Cloud Security Low Severity Alert
Detects when a low alert severity is raised by Lacework. This severity level might indicates a change in configuration that could be malicious or not.
- Effort: master
Lacework Cloud Security Medium Severity Alert
Detects when a medium alert severity is raised by Lacework. This severity level might indicates a suspicious activity such as new source from user connection.
- Effort: master
Password Change On Directory Service Restore Mode (DSRM) Account
The Directory Service Restore Mode (DSRM) account is a local administrator account on Domain Controllers. Attackers may change the password to gain persistence.
- Effort: intermediate
Possible Replay Attack
This event can be a sign of Kerberos replay attack or, among other things, network device configuration or routing problems.
- Effort: intermediate
RSA SecurID Failed Authentification
Detects many failed attempts to authenticate followed by a successfull login for a super admin account.
- Effort: advanced
Remote Access Tool Domain
Detects traffic toward a domain flagged as a Remote Administration Tool (RAT).
- Effort: master
SEKOIA.IO Intelligence Feed
Detect threats based on indicators of compromise (IOCs) collected by SEKOIA's Threat and Detection Research team.
- Effort: elementary
Sekoia.io EICAR Detection
Detects observables in Sekoia.io CTI tagged as EICAR, which are fake samples meant to test detection.
- Effort: master
TOR Usage Generic Rule
Detects TOR usage globally, whether the IP is a destination or source. TOR is short for The Onion Router, and it gets its name from how it works. TOR intercepts the network traffic from one or more apps on user’s computer, usually the user web browser, and shuffles it through a number of randomly-chosen computers before passing it on to its destination. This disguises user location, and makes it harder for servers to pick him/her out on repeat visits, or to tie together separate visits to different sites, this making tracking and surveillance more difficult. Before a network packet starts its journey, user’s computer chooses a random list of relays and repeatedly encrypts the data in multiple layers, like an onion. Each relay knows only enough to strip off the outermost layer of encryption, before passing what’s left on to the next relay in the list.
- Effort: master
User Account Created
Detects user creation on windows servers, which shouldn't happen in an Active Directory environment. Apply this on your windows server logs and not on your DC logs. One default account defaultuser0
is excluded as only used during Windows set-up. This detection use Security Event ID 4720.
- Effort: master
User Account Deleted
Detects local user deletion
- Effort: master
Event Categories
The following table lists the data source offered by this integration.
Data Source | Description |
---|---|
AWS CloudTrail logs |
Lacework leverages Amazon Web Services to process the data collected by the platform |
File monitoring |
The Lacework agent periodically scans system directories on a monitored system and generates hashes of the files located within directories |
Process monitoring |
The Lacework agent collects metadata information about the processes running on the system. |
Network intrusion detection system |
The Lacework agent collects metadata information about the network connections to and from the system. |
In details, the following table denotes the type of events produced by this integration.

Transformed Events Samples after Ingestion
This section demonstrates how the raw logs will be transformed by our parsers. It shows the extracted fields that will be available for use in the built-in detection rules and hunting activities in the events page. Understanding these transformations is essential for analysts to create effective detection mechanisms with custom detection rules and to leverage the full potential of the collected data.
