About the connector

ArcSight Enterprise Security Manager (ESM) is a threat detection, analysis, triage, and compliance management SIEM platform.

This document provides information about the HP ArcSight connector, which facilitates automated interactions, with an ArcSight ESM server using FortiSOAR™ playbooks. Add the HP ArcSight connector as a step in FortiSOAR™ playbooks and perform automated operations, such as annotating events, running a report based on a report ID, and uploading an ArcSight report file as an attachment in FortiSOAR™.

Version information

Connector Version: 2.2.0

FortiSOAR™ Version Tested on: 5.1.0-464

HP ArcSight Version Tested on: 6.11

Authored By: Fortinet

Certified: Yes

Release Notes for version 2.2.0

Following enhancements have been made to the HP ArcSight Connector in version 2.2.0:

  • Updated the configuration schema in the >ArcSight > Fetch data ingestion playbook to include a tooltip and placeholder content for the Event IDs parameter present on the Fetch Data screen in the FortiSOAR™ Data Ingestion Wizard. For information about data ingestion, see the "Data Ingestion" chapter in the FortiSOAR™ product documentation.
  • Rename the input parameter "Event ID" to "Event IDs" in the "Get Event Details" action and included support for retrieving details of multiple events based on the event IDs you have specified. You can enter multiple event IDs in the CSV or list format.
  • Renamed the action "Upload Report" to "Download Report".
  • Updated the script that pulls events from ArcSight. Updates include adding error handling in the script, etc.
  • Fixed bugs such as adding a default .html file extension to the report downloaded using the "Download Report" action.

Installing the connector

From FortiSOAR™ 5.0.0 onwards, use the Connector Store to install the connector. For the detailed procedure to install a connector, click here.
You can also use the yum command to install connectors. Connectors provided by FortiSOAR™ are delivered using a FortiSOAR™ repository. Therefore, you must set up your FortiSOAR™ repository and run the yum command as a root user to install connectors:

yum install cyops-connector-arcsight

Prerequisites to configuring the connector

  • You must have the IP Address or FQDN of ArcSight ESM server and credentials to access the server.
  • To access the FortiSOAR™ UI, ensure that port 443 is open through the firewall for the FortiSOAR™ instance.

Configuring the connector

For the procedure to configure a connector, click here.

Configuration parameters

In FortiSOAR™, on the Connectors page, click the HP ArcSight connector row (if you are in the Grid view on the Connectors page) and in the Configurations tab enter the required configuration details:

Parameter Description
Server URL IP Address or FQDN of the ArcSight ESM server to which you will connect and perform automated operations.
ESM Port REST API port of the ArcSight ESM server.
Defaults to 8443.
Username Username to access the ArcSight ESM server.
Password Password to access the ArcSight ESM server.
Verify SSL Specifies whether the SSL certificate for the server is to be verified or not.
By default, this option is set as True.
Do Not Fail Connector Function On API Error? If you select this option, i.e., set this option as True, then connector operation will not fail even when the ArcSight REST API returns a failure.
Enable Pull ArcSight Events Service If you select this option, i.e., set this option as True (default), then ArcSight events will be pulled.
If you select this option, then you must specify the following parameters:
  • Active List ID: Resource ID of the Active List for which you want to retrieve events from ArcSight ESM.
  • Playbook Trigger: The string used to trigger the playbook.
    Note: The playbook authentication method should be set as HMAC.
  • Reader Port: Port used for communication between FortiSOAR™ and the ArcSight Active List Reader. 10012 is the default port number. You can specify any unused port number if the default port is unavailable. You can also use a similar port number for multiple ArcSight connector configurations as the ArcSight Active List Reader process is capable of communicating with multiple ArcSight servers.
  • Poll Interval: Poll Interval, in seconds, that determines how frequently the ArcSight Active List Reader polls the active list for event IDs.
    Note: 300 seconds is the default poll interval.

Important: To run the Enable Pull ArcSight Events Service, you must Import the CyOPs_Package.arb in ArcSight. Steps to import the CyOPs_Package.arb in ArcSight, is mentioned in the "Importing the CyOPs_Package.arb package in ArcSight" section.
Also, ensure that the playbook whose trigger you have specified in the Playbook Trigger parameter is in the Active state. This ensures that you experience seamless event reading from ArcSight ESM.

Importing the CyOPs_Package.arb package in ArcSight

  1. Locate the CyOPs_Package.arb package that is present in the ArcSight connector folder (/opt/cyops-integrations/integrations/connectors/arcsight_2_0_0/CyOPs_Package.arb). The .arb file is also attached with this document and can be downloaded for use.
  2. To import the CyOPs_Package.arb package in ArcSight, navigate to the Packages tab in ArcSight as shown in the following image:
  3. Click Import and select the CyOPs_Package.arb package.
    The CyOPs_Package.arb package contains two items: Active List (CyOPs_Event_collector) and Rule (CyOPs Active List Rule).
    Once the CyOPs_Package.arb package is imported successfully, the CyOPs Active List Rules will appear in ArcSight as follows:
    Once the CyOPs_Package.arb package is imported successfully, the CyOPs_Event_collector will appear in ArcSight as follows:

Troubleshooting

For troubleshooting, any issues with the Pull ArcSight Events Service, see the /var/log/cyops/cyops-integrations/arcsight/arcsight_reader.log log file.

Connection refusal while requesting to run the wrapper

This generally occurs in the case of self-signed SSL certificates. If you are using self-signed certificates for testing or staging, keep in mind this problem will not occur in production, and you might need to switch the certificates on or off.

Resolution:

Ensure that the SSL certificates are trusted or that SSL checking is turned off in the wrapper script. This is not advised for production instances.

Playbook fails after the ingestion is triggered

There are many reasons for a playbook failure, for example, if a required field is null in the target module record, or there are problems with the Playbook Appliance keys.

Resolution:

Investigate the reason for failure using the Running Playbooks tab in the Playbook Administration page. Review the step in which the failure is being generated and the result of the step, which should contain the trace of the error. Once you have identified the error and if you cannot troubleshoot the error, contact CyberSponse support for further assistance.https://arrow.readthedocs.io/en/latest/

About the connector

ArcSight Enterprise Security Manager (ESM) is a threat detection, analysis, triage, and compliance management SIEM platform.

This document provides information about the HP ArcSight connector, which facilitates automated interactions, with an ArcSight ESM server using FortiSOAR™ playbooks. Add the HP ArcSight connector as a step in FortiSOAR™ playbooks and perform automated operations, such as annotating events, running a report based on a report ID, and uploading an ArcSight report file as an attachment in FortiSOAR™.

Version information

Connector Version: 2.2.0

FortiSOAR™ Version Tested on: 5.1.0-464

HP ArcSight Version Tested on: 6.11

Authored By: Fortinet

Certified: Yes

Release Notes for version 2.2.0

Following enhancements have been made to the HP ArcSight Connector in version 2.2.0:

Installing the connector

From FortiSOAR™ 5.0.0 onwards, use the Connector Store to install the connector. For the detailed procedure to install a connector, click here.
You can also use the yum command to install connectors. Connectors provided by FortiSOAR™ are delivered using a FortiSOAR™ repository. Therefore, you must set up your FortiSOAR™ repository and run the yum command as a root user to install connectors:

yum install cyops-connector-arcsight

Prerequisites to configuring the connector

Configuring the connector

For the procedure to configure a connector, click here.

Configuration parameters

In FortiSOAR™, on the Connectors page, click the HP ArcSight connector row (if you are in the Grid view on the Connectors page) and in the Configurations tab enter the required configuration details:

Parameter Description
Server URL IP Address or FQDN of the ArcSight ESM server to which you will connect and perform automated operations.
ESM Port REST API port of the ArcSight ESM server.
Defaults to 8443.
Username Username to access the ArcSight ESM server.
Password Password to access the ArcSight ESM server.
Verify SSL Specifies whether the SSL certificate for the server is to be verified or not.
By default, this option is set as True.
Do Not Fail Connector Function On API Error? If you select this option, i.e., set this option as True, then connector operation will not fail even when the ArcSight REST API returns a failure.
Enable Pull ArcSight Events Service If you select this option, i.e., set this option as True (default), then ArcSight events will be pulled.
If you select this option, then you must specify the following parameters:
  • Active List ID: Resource ID of the Active List for which you want to retrieve events from ArcSight ESM.
  • Playbook Trigger: The string used to trigger the playbook.
    Note: The playbook authentication method should be set as HMAC.
  • Reader Port: Port used for communication between FortiSOAR™ and the ArcSight Active List Reader. 10012 is the default port number. You can specify any unused port number if the default port is unavailable. You can also use a similar port number for multiple ArcSight connector configurations as the ArcSight Active List Reader process is capable of communicating with multiple ArcSight servers.
  • Poll Interval: Poll Interval, in seconds, that determines how frequently the ArcSight Active List Reader polls the active list for event IDs.
    Note: 300 seconds is the default poll interval.

Important: To run the Enable Pull ArcSight Events Service, you must Import the CyOPs_Package.arb in ArcSight. Steps to import the CyOPs_Package.arb in ArcSight, is mentioned in the "Importing the CyOPs_Package.arb package in ArcSight" section.
Also, ensure that the playbook whose trigger you have specified in the Playbook Trigger parameter is in the Active state. This ensures that you experience seamless event reading from ArcSight ESM.

Importing the CyOPs_Package.arb package in ArcSight

  1. Locate the CyOPs_Package.arb package that is present in the ArcSight connector folder (/opt/cyops-integrations/integrations/connectors/arcsight_2_0_0/CyOPs_Package.arb). The .arb file is also attached with this document and can be downloaded for use.
  2. To import the CyOPs_Package.arb package in ArcSight, navigate to the Packages tab in ArcSight as shown in the following image:
  3. Click Import and select the CyOPs_Package.arb package.
    The CyOPs_Package.arb package contains two items: Active List (CyOPs_Event_collector) and Rule (CyOPs Active List Rule).
    Once the CyOPs_Package.arb package is imported successfully, the CyOPs Active List Rules will appear in ArcSight as follows:
    Once the CyOPs_Package.arb package is imported successfully, the CyOPs_Event_collector will appear in ArcSight as follows:

Included playbooks

The Sample - HP ArcSight - 2.2.0 playbook collection comes bundled with the HP ArcSight connector. This playbook contains steps using which you can perform all supported actions. You can see the bundled playbooks in the Automation > Playbooks section in FortiSOAR™ after importing the HP ArcSight connector.

Note: If you are planning to use any of the sample playbooks in your environment, ensure that you clone those playbooks and move them to a different collection since the sample playbook collection gets deleted during the connector upgrade and delete.

Troubleshooting

For troubleshooting, any issues with the Pull ArcSight Events Service, see the /var/log/cyops/cyops-integrations/arcsight/arcsight_reader.log log file.

Connection refusal while requesting to run the wrapper

This generally occurs in the case of self-signed SSL certificates. If you are using self-signed certificates for testing or staging, keep in mind this problem will not occur in production, and you might need to switch the certificates on or off.

Resolution:

Ensure that the SSL certificates are trusted or that SSL checking is turned off in the wrapper script. This is not advised for production instances.

Playbook fails after the ingestion is triggered

There are many reasons for a playbook failure, for example, if a required field is null in the target module record, or there are problems with the Playbook Appliance keys.

Resolution:

Investigate the reason for failure using the Running Playbooks tab in the Playbook Administration page. Review the step in which the failure is being generated and the result of the step, which should contain the trace of the error. Once you have identified the error and if you cannot troubleshoot the error, contact CyberSponse support for further assistance.https://arrow.readthedocs.io/en/latest/
