Stormshield SNS

Overview

Stormshield Network Security firewalls provides comprehensive security and high performance network protection. In addition, they offer a high degree of scalability to support the evolution of IT and OT networks

In this documentation we will explain how to collect and send Stormshield Network Security logs to Sekoia.io.

Benefit from SEKOIA.IO built-in rules and upgrade Stormshield SNS with the following detection capabilities out-of-the-box.

SEKOIA.IO x Stormshield SNS on ATT&CK Navigator

SEKOIA.IO Intelligence Feed

Detect threats based on indicators of compromise (IOCs) collected by SEKOIA's Threat and Detection Research team.

Configure

Sending logs to syslog server

You need to set some parameters to send your logs via Syslog. It is necessary to create a profile using the specific tab named "Syslog" within your Stormshield interface.

Note that you can configure up to 4 different profiles.

You need to specify the following information:

  • Name
  • Comments
  • Syslog server
  • Protocol
  • Certification authority
  • Server certificate
  • Client certificate
  • Format

You can find more information using this documentation provided by Stormshield.

Generate the intake_key

You have to go on your Sekoia.io instance to generate an "intake key". Everything you need to do for this part of the configuration is described here.

Finally, to push logs, you have to configure some filters and rewrite rules in Syslog that will add the proper “intake key” considering your logs.
