One Identity SPS Session logs

Overview

One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Sessions (SPS) is a core module of the One Identity Safeguard suite that focuses on securing, monitoring, and auditing privileged access to critical systems. It acts as a transparent gateway between administrators and target systems, enabling organizations to control who accesses sensitive resources, record all activity, and detect suspicious behavior in real time.

Warning

Important note - This format is currently in beta. We highly value your feedback to improve its performance.

  • Vendor: One Identity
  • Supported environment: On prem
  • Version compatibility: 7.4 and later
  • Detection based on: Telemetry
  • Supported application or feature: Authentication logs

Configure

This setup guide will show you how to forward your One Identity SPS logs to Sekoia.io.

Prerequisites

  • Have an internal log concentrator (e.g., Sekoia.io forwarder, Rsyslog, Syslog-NG, etc.) to receive the logs from One Identity SPS and forward them to Sekoia.io.

Create the intake

Go to the intake page and create a new intake from the format One Identity SPS.

Configure One Identity SPS to forward logs

  1. Log in to the One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Sessions console.
  2. Go to Basic Settings > Management.

Step 1

  1. Click the Universal SIEM Forwarding panel to expand it.

Step 2

  1. Select the Enable checkbox.

Step 3

  1. Click + to add a new SIEM destination.

Step 4

  1. Name the destination (e.g., Sekoia.io).
  2. In the Address field, enter the IP address or hostname of your internal log concentrator.
  3. In the Port field, enter the port number for the intake.
  4. Select CEF as the Format.
  5. Click Commit to apply the changes.

Step 5

Raw Events Samples

In this section, you will find examples of raw logs as generated natively by the source. These examples are provided to help integrators understand the data format before ingestion into Sekoia.io. It is crucial for setting up the correct parsing stages and ensuring that all relevant information is captured.

Detection section

The following section provides information for those who wish to learn more about the detection capabilities enabled by collecting this intake. It includes details about the built-in rule catalog, event categories, and ECS fields extracted from raw events. This is essential for users aiming to create custom detection rules, perform hunting activities, or pivot in the events page.

No related built-in rules was found. This message is automatically generated.

Event Categories

The following table lists the data source offered by this integration.

Data Source Description
Application logs One identity audit log provides logs about activity done on the application
Authentication logs One identity audit log provides logs about authentication

Transformed Events Samples after Ingestion

This section demonstrates how the raw logs will be transformed by our parsers. It shows the extracted fields that will be available for use in the built-in detection rules and hunting activities in the events page. Understanding these transformations is essential for analysts to create effective detection mechanisms with custom detection rules and to leverage the full potential of the collected data.
