1 - Supported Integrations

Samurai Integrations facilitate the ingestion of data sources from a wide range of third party vendors. Our Integrations are updated regularly as new and emerging technologies are released.

Each Integration typically requires a configuration guide outlining steps you must follow to integrate your data source to the Samurai platform.

For details such as transport methods and logs collected please refer to each supporting vendor configuration guide by clicking the link in the table or browsing directly to Product Integration Guides.

All supported integrations are categorized according to our Detection Categorization. For further information refer to the following article: Telemetry Data Source Categorization.

Hide Integration

Hiding an integration will remove it from the integrations displayed and also from the Telemetry Monitoring view. Additionally if the integration is supported and the Samurai platform ingests no events, you will not receive an email notification.

Only integrations of type Log can be hidden. Some reasons why you may want to hide an integration include:

• You may want to hide all of your unsupported/generic log source integrations, the Samurai platform does monitor unsupported integrations for your convenience however does not notify you if events are not seen in 24 hours.
• You do not want to recieve any notifications if there is an issue with telemetry ingestion to the Samurai platform.

To hide an integration:

1. Click Telemetry and select Integrations from the main menu
2. Find the relevant Log integration
3. Click on (more options) within the integrations table and select Hide integration
4. A Hide Log Integration window will be displayed, click Confirm

To view any hidden integrations:

1. Click Telemetry and select Integrations from the main menu
2. Click (more options) at the top right of the window select Hidden log integrations
3. A Hidden Log Integrations window will be displayed

Unhide Integration

1. Click Telemetry and select Integrations from the main menu
2. Click (more options) at the top right of the window select Hidden log integrations
3. A Hidden Log Integrations window will be displayed
4. Find the relevant hidden integration
5. Click on (more options) within the integrations table and select Unhide integration

Delete Integration

If you wish to delete an integration associated with a specific Collector:

1. From your Samurai MDR portal Telemetry and select Collectors from the main menu
2. Select the relevant collector from your list
3. You will now see all integrations associated with the collector
4. Select your integrations
5. On the right hand side of the relevant integration, click on (more options) and select Delete Integration
6. The following warning will appear: ‘Warning: This is a destructive action and cannot be reversed.’. To ensure you intended to delete the integration you will need to type in the highlighted ‘Integration’s Hostname’ and select Delete Integration

You can also delete from the Integrations menu item:

1. Click Telemetry and select Integrations from the main menu
2. Find and select your integrated product
3. On the right hand side of the relevant integration, click on (more options) and select Delete Integration

3 - Generic Log Sources

While we make an effort to support a wide variety of Integrations and different types of log sources, it is possible that there may be a log source that you would like to ingest into the Samurai platform which we are not able to parse and analyze. This is especially true for events generated via syslog log sources.

The fact that we are not able to use a log source for detections doesn’t mean that it won’t still be useful to ingest into the Samurai platform. We will ingest any event data, provided via syslog (sent to a Samurai local collector), into our data lake and you will still be able to analyze that event data using Advanced Query. This allows you to include events from generic log sources when you are performing queries.

If a log source, ingested via syslog, does not match one of our supported integrations, we will ingest the log events, which will still contain, amongst others, the following fields:

• timestamp: the time at which the log message was ingested
• collector: the id of the collector which ingested the event
• host: the source host from which the event was received
• raw: the complete raw log message

You can then proceed to query these events using Advanced Query. For example, the following KQL query finds all the attempts to connect to a host using invalid user ids and then counts the attempts by source IPv4 or IPv6 address:

events | where host == "10.1.1.1" and i(raw contains "Invalid" or raw contains "failed") and raw !contains "connect" | project timestamp, user = extract("user ([a-zA-Z0-9\\-]+) from ", 1, raw), ipaddr = extract(".+ ([0-9a-f]+[\\:\\.][0-9a-f\\.\\:]+) ", 1, raw) | summarize num_attempts = count() by ipaddr| order by num_attempts

The output is ordered by the number of attempts from each IP address, producing a table like the following:
