About the connector

LogPoint enables organizations to convert data into actionable intelligence, improving their cybersecurity posture and creating immediate business value.

This document provides information about the LogPoint connector, which facilitates automated interactions, with your LogPoint server using FortiSOAR™ playbooks. Add the LogPoint connector, as a step in FortiSOAR™ playbooks and perform automated operations for collecting, analyzing, and monitoring your machine data.

Version information

Connector Version: 1.0.0

Compatibility with FortiSOAR™ versions: 4.12.1-253

Authored By: Fortinet

Certified: Yes

Installing the connector

All connectors provided by FortiSOAR™ are delivered using a FortiSOAR™ repository. Therefore, you must set up your FortiSOAR™ repository and use the yum command to install connectors:

yum install cyops-connector-logpoint

For the detailed procedure to install a connector, click here

Prerequisites to configuring the connector

  • You must have the URL of LogPoint server to which you will connect and perform automated operations and credentials (username-secret key pair) to access that server.
  • To access the FortiSOAR™ UI, ensure that port 443 is open through the firewall for the FortiSOAR™ instance.

Configuring the connector

Parameter Description
Time Range Time range based on which you want to search the LogPoint system. You can choose either a Relative time such as Last 1 hour, Last x.. etc, from the options provided, or click Calendar Period to specify a calendar period, such as This Month, or click Custom to specify a custom time range.
  • If you click Lastx..., then in the Count field, enter the count for the selected time range type, and from the Type drop-down list, select the type of the time range. You can select from Minutes, Hours, Days, Months, Years. For example, if you have specified 30 in the count field and selected the type as Minutes, this means that the LogPoint system will be searched for the last 30 minutes.

Query Parameter Parameter of the query based on which you want to search the LogPoint system.
You can choose some predefined query parameters, such as Time Zone, User, etc, or you can select Custom to define your own query in the Query field.
If you choose a predefined query parameter then you must specify the query associated with the parameter selected. For example, if you choose Time Zone, then you must specify the time zone for which you want to extract logs from the LogPoint system, or if you choose User, then you must specify the user for whom you want to extract logs from the LogPoint system.
