Symantec Endpoint Security

Use Cloud Platform Connections, a cloud-based security feature in Symantec Endpoint Security to discover and protect instances of public cloud platforms, and their workloads.

Symantec Endpoint Security

Symantec Endpoint Security (SES) is a Broadcom solution that safeguards endpoints from malware, ransomware, and advanced cyber threats using AI, behavioral analysis, and EDR to deliver intelligent, real-time protection.

This pack includes

  • Rest API alert integration.
  • Modeling Rules for alert logs.

Configure Symantec Endpoint Security on Cortex XSIAM

  1. Navigate to Settings > Configurations > Data Collection > Automations & Feed Integrations.

  2. Search for Symantec Endpoint Security.

  3. Click Add instance to create and configure a new integration instance.

    Parameter Required
    Server URL True
    OAuth credential True
    Stream ID True
    Channel ID True
    Fetch interval in seconds True
    Use system proxy settings False
    Trust any certificate (not secure) False
  4. Click Test to validate the URLs, token, and connection.

To generate a token for the Token parameter

  1. Log in to the Symantec Endpoint Security console.
  2. Click Integration > Client Applications.
  3. Choose Add Client Application.
  4. Choose a name for the application, then click Add. The client application details screen will appear.
  5. Click and select Client Secret.
  6. Click the ellipsis and select Client Secret.
  7. Click the copy icon next to OAuth Credentials.

For more information on obtaining OAuth Credentials, refer to this documentation or watch this video.

Note:

  • No need to generate the bearer token, the integration uses the provided OAuth Credentials to generate one.
  • The test_module test checks only the validity of the OAuth credential parameter and does not validate the Channel ID and Stream ID parameters.
  • Fetching events that occurred at a specific time may be delayed due to delays in event ingestion on Symantec's side.

symantec-ses-reset-integration-context


Reset Integration context. By default, resetting the integration context only resets the next_fetch field in the integration context.

Note:
By default, resetting the integration context only resets the next_fetch field in the integration context,
This means that the next fetch call will be performed without the next parameter, but events will still be filtered, preventing duplicate events from being ingested.

When using the delete_all=true argument, the entire integration_context is deleted. This means that the API call will be performed without the next parameter, and duplicate events may be ingested into the system.

Base Command

symantec-ses-reset-integration-context

Input

Argument Name Description Required
delete_all Whether delete all integration context, default, false. Possible values are: true, false. Optional

Context Output

There is no context output for this command.

Troubleshooting

In cases where the integration has been disabled for an extended period, it is recommended to run the command symantec-ses-reset-integration-context without the delete_all argument. This will ensure that the next parameter stored in the integration_context is cleared,
This means that the fetch process will run without the next parameter and retrieve all available events from the stream. However, events will still be filtered based on the last retrieved event timestamp.
