This is a key to eliminating event latency. Make sure the location is set to ad. This can lead to serious event delay and backlog if you are polling high event rate servers connectog low event rate servers on the same Connector. Unicorn Meta Zoo arcsught I am reviewing a security configuration for Workstation security log review, we have an environment wherein the logs are captured and sent to ArcSight tool for analysis.

I experienced the case where failed login was not getting logged - because we were using smartcards and the smartcard integration with Windows did not allow this event to be raised the Bad PIN login failure was handled inside the smartcard and not exposed to the operating system.

Cnonector client recently had two separate connectors one production and one running remotely as backup both configured the same and actively polling the same Windows machines. Posted by Greg Martin at 7: All systems bound to the Active Directory servers AD or AD2 should have the correct time set as part of joining and maintained automatically.

As an auditor, I would assume that if there is no evidence collected in the onboarding project that the logs were captured even once, I think it's safer to assume that nobody actually ever checked and there will be gaps I was wondering if you heard any issues with the Sophos connector on the latest build.

After the initial connection, Arcsight periodically polls the system and brings in all new data. In your Disaster Recovery plan have a procedure for quickly turning up the Connector on the backup network to take over during a failure.

Finally there are a few knobs which allow you to tune both polling frequency and number of events fetched at a time. Hi Greg, I have recently received an IDS "windows system32 directory file access" alert from the unified connector to the destination Windows server. Sign up using Facebook.

Once you have set up the connector you can open a channel and see all the events that are coming in from the connector and create custom ArcSight content from that channel focusing on the particular use cases you require. How long have you been using native Windows Event Collection in production? This will require you to have some basic-advanced Arcsight administration experience connevtor hopefully it's easy for anyone to understand.

However, how do we validate from the Domain Controller policies or Workstation logging settings to ensure the right security events from the workstation and user log-ins are being monitored. This depends on your requirements. I'll show you both Free and Enterprise editions of Supercharger and how they help you to answer these questions: This means the Windows hosts arcsiggt getting hammered with double duty polling.

Followed Arcsights instructions completely but I don't think it likes that connection.

To perform this step you must use an account that is an Administrator for the system to be added to Arcsight. On a slow network or polling over long WAN or VPN links, it makes since to add sleeptime, start with 20 seconds and work your way up until unifide find the right setting for your network.

It is possible that the time or timezone is set incorrectly, so please verify the clock on the system has the correct time in the correct timezone. Hi Greg, I've experienced the same issues with the unified connector and am working through it right now.

Configuring Windows to Send Logs to Arcsight

This depends on what correlation rules you have configured. In my experience, there is always remedial work required in adjusting the event source log configuration so as to capture the events the customer is looking for or to tune down the insane verbosity of some kinds of logs.

For each of the requirements, I require them to be able to generate a sample of the log entry, or while being monitored, to generate the event which would cause the log entry so that I can see the sample event. Close the Computer Management window. Not sure of a way around that. These requirements should be driven by their infosec policies. The default behaviour of Windows is to audit very few activities.
