[How to] send auditd logs to SIEM?

edited Mar 9, 2022 10:20PM in Linux Operating System (MOSC) 6 commentsAnswered

Had a server halt due to the following config:

grep admin /etc/audit/auditd.conf

admin_space_left = 50

admin_space_left_action = HALT

Not ideal, luckily it wasn't production.

Changing the value to rotate, increasing the size of the log and the number of logs but I'd much rather ship the auditd logs to our siem. We dont have an agent to install for log shipping, it's just an aggregator.

Google tells me I have to send to rsyslog first and that make searching /var/log/messages impossible as we have numerous auditd logs required by our infosec team.

Suggestions?

Howdy, Stranger!
