Carbon Black Configuration

Syslog

The following guide should be used to install the python Carbon Black Cloud Syslog Connector on your FortiSIEM collector.

https://developer.carbonblack.com/reference/carbon-black-cloud/integrations/syslog-connector/

Note: You may need your Carbon Black account to view the Unix instructions.

An install guide with a sample configuration file is available here:

https://pypi.org/project/cbc-syslog/

Notes:

  • If you haven't done so already, create a symbolic link to pip for easier execution.

    Example: ln -sf /usr/bin/pip<#.#> /usr/bin/pip

  • From the GitHub Installation instructions "Install python package", make sure to include the period.

    pip install .

FortiSIEM processes events from this device via syslog. Configure the device to send syslog to FortiSIEM on port 514. CEF formatted logs are also supported.
