Ingest Check Point Firewall Data into Cloud SIEM

To ingest Check Point Firewall data into Cloud SIEM:

  1. Configure a Syslog source on a collector. When you configure the source, do the following:
    1. Click the +Add Field link, and add a field whose name is _siemForward and value is true. This will ensure all logs for this source are forwarded to Cloud SIEM.
    2. Add another field named _parser with value /Parsers/System/Check Point/Check Point Firewall Syslog. This ensures that the Check Point Firewall logs are parsed and normalized into structured records in Cloud SIEM.
  2. Configure Check Point Firewall to send log messages to the Sumo Logic platform. Sumo Logic supports the default Syslog format from Check Point’s Log Exporter. For more information on Syslog forwarding, see Log Exporter - Check Point Log Export in the Check Point documentation.
  3. To verify that your logs are successfully making it into Cloud SIEM:
    1. Classic UI. In the top menu select Configuration, and then under Incoming Data select Log Mappings.
      New UI. In the top menu select Configuration, and then under Cloud SIEM Integrations select Log Mappings. You can also click the Go To... menu at the top of the screen and select Log Mappings.
    2. On the Log Mappings tab search for "checkpoint" and check the Records columns.
    3. For a more granular look at the incoming records, you can also search the Sumo Logic platform for Check Point Firewall security records:
      _index=sec_record* and metadata_product = "checkpoint"
