Overview

Welcome to the DB CyberTech Splunk documentation site. This site aims to document not only the details of the Splunk integrations but also some details about the DB CyberTech syslog output. You'll find documentation divided into two main parts as well as detailing some common elements as well. The first piece is the Splunk Add-on, this piece of code will help to get the DB CyberTech syslog messages into a format Splunk will better understand. This is early in the processing chain so it helps to install this first. Second, the main user interface with DB CyberTech data stored in Splunk, the App. This will enable a "single pane of glass" look into the DB CyberTech data.

About the Add-on

The DB CyberTech DB-Security appliance uses syslog to provide event reporting to a central Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) system and to report general system health information. Syslog output is encoded in the Common Event Format (CEF), which allows easy integration into a number of common security information and event management (SIEM), and log-analysis tools. The DB CyberTech Splunk Add-on manages the early grooming of DB CyberTech syslog messages into formats the Splunk Core more intuitively understands. This includes segmenting sourcetypes, parsing CEF headers, and creating the key/value pairs which power the Splunk App.

About the DB CyberTech Splunk App

DB CyberTech Splunk App is an add-on for Splunk that installs custom dashboards to monitor the important events that these logs generates. These includes Service/Client/User Discovery, Application Security Events, Insider Threat Events, and Vital Health Counters.

For better performance and early sourcetyping, the DB CyberTech Add-on for Splunk is required for installing DB CyberTech Splunk App.
