Collect Deep Instinct EDR logs
This document explains how to ingest Deep Instinct EDR logs to Google Security Operations using Bindplane. The parser extracts fields from Deep Instinct EDR LEEF formatted logs. It uses grok to parse the log message, kv to separate key-value pairs, and then maps these values to the UDM, handling various data transformations and conditional logic for specific fields along the way. It also sets default metadata values for the event source and type.
Before you begin
Make sure you have the following prerequisites:
- Google SecOps instance
- Windows 2016 or later or a Linux host with
systemd
- If running behind a proxy, ensure firewall ports are open
- Privileged access to the Deep Instinct Management Console
Get Google SecOps ingestion authentication file
- Sign in to the Google SecOps console.
- Go to SIEM Settings > Collection Agents.
- Download the Ingestion Authentication File. Save the file securely on the system where Bindplane will be installed.
Get Google SecOps customer ID
- Sign in to the Google SecOps console.
- Go to SIEM Settings > Profile.
- Copy and save the Customer IDfrom the Organization Detailssection.
Install the Bindplane agent
Install the Bindplane agent on your Windows or Linux operating system according to the following instructions.
Windows installation
- Open the Command Promptor PowerShellas an administrator.
-
Run the following command:
msiexec / i "https://github.com/observIQ/bindplane-agent/releases/latest/download/observiq-otel-collector.msi" / quiet
Linux installation
- Open a terminal with root or sudo privileges.
-
Run the following command:
sudo sh -c " $( curl -fsSlL https://github.com/observiq/bindplane-agent/releases/latest/download/install_unix.sh ) " install_unix.sh
Additional installation resources
For additional installation options, consult the installation guide .
Configure the Bindplane agent to ingest Syslog and send to Google SecOps
- Access the configuration file:
- Locate the
config.yaml
file. Typically, it's in the/etc/bindplane-agent/
directory on Linux or in the installation directory on Windows. - Open the file using a text editor (for example,
nano
,vi
, or Notepad).
- Locate the
- Edit the
config.yaml
file as follows:yaml receivers: udplog: # Replace the port and IP address as required listen_address: "0.0.0.0:514" exporters: chronicle/chronicle_w_labels: compression: gzip # Adjust the path to the credentials file you downloaded in Step 1 creds_file_path: '/path/to/ingestion-authentication-file.json' # Replace with your actual customer ID from Step 2 customer_id: <customer_id> endpoint: malachiteingestion-pa.googleapis.com # Add optional ingestion labels for better organization log_type: 'DEEP_INSTINCT_EDR' raw_log_field: body ingestion_labels: service: pipelines: logs/source0__chronicle_w_labels-0: receivers: - udplog exporters: - chronicle/chronicle_w_labels
- Replace the port and IP address as required in your infrastructure.
- Replace
<customer_id>
with the actual customer ID. - Update
/path/to/ingestion-authentication-file.json
to the path where the authentication file was saved in the Get Google SecOps ingestion authentication file section.
- Replace
Restart the Bindplane agent to apply the changes
-
To restart the Bindplane agent in Linux, run the following command:
sudo systemctl restart bindplane-agent
-
To restart the Bindplane agent in Windows, you can either use the Servicesconsole or enter the following command:
net stop BindPlaneAgent && net start BindPlaneAgent
Configure Syslog for Deep Instinct EDR
- Sign in to the Deep Instinct Management Console.
- Go to Settings > Integrations.
- Click the + Addbutton.
- Provide the following configuration details:
- Name: Enter a descriptive name (for example,
Google SecOps Bindplane
). - Host: Enter the Bindplane Agent IP address.
- Port: Enter the Bindplane Agent port number.
- Protocol: Select UDPor TCP, depending on your actual Bindplane Agent configuration.
- Format: Select LEEF.
- Timezone: Select the UTC timezone for consistency across systems.
- Go to the Eventssection and select all.
- Name: Enter a descriptive name (for example,
- Click the Save.
