QRadar 3.2.0

Description

Integration with IBM QRadar supports CDC users by providing the extraction of logs and observables from the QRadar platform. This enables CDC users to make informed decisions regarding incident response.

IBM QRadar Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) helps Security teams accurately detect and prioritize threats across the enterprise. By consolidating log events and network flow data from thousands of devices, endpoints, and applications distributed throughout your network, QRadar correlates this information and aggregates related events into single alerts, to accelerate incident analysis and remediation.

IBM QRadar has provided CyberProof with a REST API, which is integrated with the CDC. The CDC receives new offenses as alerts from the QRadar offense service.

All the read information is passed on to the CDC in the form of an alert, with information stored as raw information and observables.

Customer Configuration

1. Navigate to 'Admin' pane -> 'Authorized Services'.
2. Click on 'Add Authorized Service'.
3. Enter a meaningful service name; e.g., CDC_API,
   User Role: Admin,
   Security Profile: Admin
4. Expiry date – Check the 'No Expiry' tab.
   Note: If an expiry date will be set for this API token, please make sure to document the date and create a new API token and send it to a CyberProof representative prior to the old key expiration date, as this can cause the API to expire and will break the QRadar - CDC integration.
5. Click 'Create Service'.
6. Highlight the new Authorized Services we've just created and copy the token from the top row.
7. Provide the QRadar instance URL/IP, Port and API Token in a secure way with the CDC deployment team, for further configuration of the pack.
