Configure

On SEKOIA.IO

To create the intake key to be used when setting up HarfangLab, please select manual mode.

On Harfang Lab

First your need to navigate to Personal Settings, and in the Api token get your token or generate a new one.

Pre-requisite

HarfangLab must setup OpenSSL to the server for protocol TCP/SSL to be available.

Steps

In SEKOIA.IO

Create a new HarfangLab intake on SEKOIA.IO and select the manual mode.

• Host: intake.sekoia.io
• Port: 10514
• App name: in the syslog header (cf illustration below), please use RFC5424 format
• Source host: name of your choice
• Structured data: [SEKOIA@53288 intake_key="YOUR_INTAKE_KEY"]
• Protocol: TCP/TLS

• RFC: RFC5424

• Syslog header and fields

In HarfangLab

1. Go to Personal Settings > API Key and get your token or generate a new one.

2. Navigate to Administration > Configuration, and switch to the Connectors tab.

3. In the Syslog connector panel, select the logs you want to export:

   • Process
   • Network
   • Event log
   • Remote thread
   • InjectedThread
   • Security Event

4. Configure the Syslog information with the following details and by replacing YOUR_INTAKE_KEY with the Intake key previously generated in SEKOIA.IO:

   • Host: intake.sekoia.io
   • Port: 10514
   • App name: name of your choice - NO SPACES
   • Source host: name of your choice NO SPACES
   • Structured data: [SEKOIA@53288 intake_key="YOUR_INTAKE_KEY"]
   • Protocol: TCP/SSL
   • RFC : RFC5424

   Warning

   Don't insert spaces in App name or Source host. These fields are part of the Syslog header and spaces will break the format.

5. Finally select the Protocol option: TCP/SSL, leave the other options to default.

In the above field Structured data, please replace YOUR_INTAKE_KEY variable with your intake key generated in SEKOIA.IO.
