Bro-Sysmon

How to Zeek Sysmon logs.

Overview

Bro-Sysmon enables Bro to receive Windows Event Logs. This provide a method to associate Network Monitoring and Host Monitoring. The work was spurred by the need to associate JA3 and HASSH fingerprints with the application on the host. The example below shows the hostname, Process ID, connection information, JA3 fingerprints, Application Path, and binary hashes.

How it works

Sysmon-Broker.py uses the Broker Python Bindings to establish peering with Bro. Bro subsribes to the /sysmon message bus. Windows event logs are received in JSON format by Symon-Broker.py. The script parses the JSON object and builds an event which is sent to the /sysmon message bus. Bro receives the events and makes them available to "script land". The provided Bro scripts will generate log files prepended with "sysmon_". Custom scrips can be added to handle the events like mapping JA3 fingerprints to client applications.

Getting Started

  • Install Sysmon on Windows host, tune config as you like.
  • Install WinLogBeat on Windows host and configure to forward to Logstash on a Linux box.
  • Install Logstash, Broker and Bro on the Linux host.
  • Configure Logstash on the Linux host as beats listener and write logs out to file.
    Example Logstash config:
		input {
			beats {
			  port => 9000
			}
		}
		output {
			file {
			  path => "/home/logstash/bro-sysmon/WindowsSysmon.json"
			}
		}
  • copy the sysmon folder to $bropath/share/bro/site/
  • modify local.bro to include sysmon directory @load sysmon
  • start Bro as you see fit, start in foreground until you're happy with it.
  • tail -f /home/logstash/WindowsEventLogs.json | python sysmon-Broker.py &

Output

Bro-Sysmon events will now be available to Bro Scripts.

event sysmonProcNetConn(computerName: string, proto: string, 
			srcip: string, srcprt: string, dstip: string, dstprt: string, 
			processId: string, procImage: string) {
		print fmt("Host %s spawned ProcessID %s, %s", computerName, processId, procImage);
		}
Output: Host blocky-PC spawned ProcessID 3968, C:\Users\blocky\Desktop\putty.exe

Bro-Sysmon logs will be written to file.
