To ensure the sending of the security logs, perform the following steps:
- Logon to TMCM server with admin privileges
- Navigate to ...\Trend Micro\Control Manager and search for Logforwarder.exe.
- Run the Logforwarder.exe application as an administrator.
- Configure the following information in the Logforwarder Tool:
- Host: IP address of IBM Qradar
- Protocol: UDP
- Port: 514
- Facility: Local0
- Severity: Notice
For the Log Forwarding Settings section, select the preferred options:
- Frequency: denotes the time interval when the tool will send the selected logs
- Format: CEF or CM (Default value is CEF and more readable)
- Logs to forward: multiple logs can be selected, but the tool will send by the order that is listed (e.g. if both C&C Callback and DLP logs are selected, the tool will send the C&C Callback logs first, before sending the DLP logs).
- Click Start, and then click Yes on the Log Forwarder pop-up window.
- Logon to IBM QRadar console, then go to Admin > Log Sources.
- Create a new Log Source
- Configure the Setting of TMCM in Log Source page:
- Log Source Name: TMCM server
- Log Source Description: describes the info of the TMCM Logs
- Protocol Configuration: Syslog
- Log Source Identifier: IP Address of the TMCM server
Protocol Configuration for Logforwarder is SYSLOG. If Syslog is not available in Protocol Configuration, inform customer to coordinate it to IBM Team. - Click Save.
After completing the configuration on both TMCM and IBM QRadar, confirm if the logs are sent without issues. Do the steps below:
- Enable TMCM_Logforwarder.log in TMCM server. Refer to this KB article: Enabling debug for Logforwarder.exe in Control Manager (TMCM) / Apex Central
- Run TCPDUMP in IBM QRadar Appliance. You can check this article from IBM: Verifying that QRadar receives syslog events
