The HYCU virtual appliance must be configured to send log data to at least two central log servers for the purpose of forwarding alerts to the administrators and the information system security officer (ISSO).

An XCCDF Rule

Description

The aggregation of log data kept on a syslog server can be used to detect attacks and trigger an alert to the appropriate security personnel. The stored log data can used to detect weaknesses in security that enable the network IA team to find and address these weaknesses before breaches can occur. Reviewing these logs, whether before or after a security breach, is important in showing whether someone is an internal employee or an outside threat.

A Manual Procedure

Setting up webhook-based notifications in HYCU allows users to receive alerts and updates about all activities related to the HYCU environment, including job status, errors, and warnings. This ensures users stay informed about the status of the events and can take appropriate actions if needed.

Use HYCU Webhooks to send HYCU events from the HYCU VM to a central logging server (e.g., Splunk, SolarWinds). Configure the webhooks notifications by navigating to Events >> Notifications >> Webhooks and adding a new Webhook. Use the "Category" and "Status" fields to filter type of events sent out based on organizational requirements.
