McAfee Web Gateway / Skyhigh Secure Web Gateway
Overview
Skyhigh Secure Web Gateway (SWG) (previously McAfee Web Gateway (MWG)) is a web gateway offering malware detection, threat prevention and reputation filtering.
- Vendor: Skyhigh Security
- Supported environment: On prem
- Version compatibility: 12.2.10
- Detection based on: Telemetry
- Supported application or feature: Anti-virus, Web proxy, Web logs
Configure
In this guide, you will configure a rule set to forward events to syslog and add a new forwarding in the rsyslog server provided with MWG.
Prerequisites
An internal syslog concentrator is required to collect and forward events to Sekoia.io.
Configure a Rule Set
Prior to the configuration, download the “Rule Set” configuration SEKOIAIO_SKYHIGH_swg.xml.
In your SWG console:
- Select
Policysection then theRule setstab. From the menu, selectLog Handler. - Right-click on the
DefaultLog Handler in the tree then selectAdd > Rule Set from Library.... - Once the
Add from Rule Set librarywindow opened, under theRule Set Librarytree, click on theImport from file...button and importSEKOIAIO_mwg.xmlfile. - Select the
Rule SetSekoia.ioand ensure the ruleforward logsis enabled.
Configure Rsyslog
To forward your logs to your log concentrator, in our MWG console:
- Select
Configurationsection then theFile Editortab. - In the tree, select
rsyslog.conf. - Add the following line:
Replace the
if $programname == 'mwg' and $syslogfacility-text == 'daemon' and $syslogseverity-text == 'info' then @@<log concentrator ip>:<port><log concentrator ip>placeholder with the ip address of our log concentrator and<port>by the listening port on the Syslog Forwarding for the Skyhigh raw events.
Note
The double at characters without spaces (@@) indicates that syslog messages are transferred to a host using the TCP protocol. To use the UDP protocol, use single at character (@).
Forward logs to Sekoia.io
Please consult the Syslog Forwarding documentation to forward these logs to Sekoia.io.
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.

Suspicious PROCEXP152.sys File Created In Tmp
Detects the creation of the PROCEXP152.sys file in the application-data local temporary folder. This driver is used by Sysinternals Process Explorer but also by KDU (https://github.com/hfiref0x/KDU) or Ghost-In-The-Logs (https://github.com/bats3c/Ghost-In-The-Logs), which uses KDU. Note - Clever attackers may easily bypass this detection by just renaming the driver filename. Therefore just Medium-level and don't rely on it.

Suspicious TOR Gateway
Detects suspicious TOR gateways. Gateways are often used by the victim to pay and decrypt the encrypted files without installing TOR. 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.

Suspicious URI Used In A Lazarus Campaign
Detects suspicious requests to a specific URI, usually on an .asp page. The website is often compromised.
- Effort: intermediate
Suspicious Windows DNS Queries
Detects a suspicious Windows command-line process making a DNS query via known abuse text paste web services. This is based on Microsoft Windows Sysmon events (Event ID 22).

System Info Discovery
System info discovery, attempt to detects basic command use to fingerprint a host.
- 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.

Telegram Bot API Request
Detects suspicious DNS queries to api.telegram.org used by Telegram Bots of any kind
- Effort: advanced
TrevorC2 HTTP Communication
Detects TrevorC2 HTTP communication based on the HTTP request URI and the user-agent.
- Effort: elementary
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
WCE wceaux.dll Creation
Detects wceaux.dll creation while Windows Credentials Editor (WCE) is executed.
- Effort: intermediate
ZIP LNK Infection Chain
Detection of an ZIP download followed by a child-process of explorer, followed by multiple Windows processes.This is widely used as an infection chain mechanism.
- Effort: advanced

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.
