thumbnail icon

The Sumo Logic app for LastPass enables security analysts to monitor critical LastPass activities, providing visibility into both user and admin actions that are vital for maintaining account security. The app offers dashboards that track key events such as user logins, password resets, and multi-factor authentication (MFA) changes, helping to detect unusual patterns or potential threats.

Analysts can monitor user activities like sharing keys, provisioning, de-provisioning, and policy changes, while also monitoring account creation and deletion trends. In addition, geo-location insights highlight the origins of risky activities and failed login attempts, assisting in identifying suspicious behavior across different regions. With real-time visualizations of event trends, analysts can quickly detect spikes in activity, allowing for proactive responses to potential security incidents.

Set up collection​

To set up the LastPass Source for the LastPass app, follow the instructions provided. These instructions will guide you through the process of creating a source using the LastPass Source category, which you will need to use when installing the app. By following these steps, you can ensure that your LastPass app is properly integrated and configured to collect and analyze your LastPass data.

Installing the LastPass app​​

To install the app, do the following:

  1. Select App Catalog.
  2. In the 🔎 Search Apps field, run a search for your desired app, then select it.
  3. Click Install App.
    note

    Sometimes this button says Add Integration.

  4. Click Next in the Setup Data section.
  5. In the Configure section of your respective app, complete the following fields.
    1. Key. Select either of these options for the data source.
      • Choose Source Category and select a source category from the list for Default Value.
      • Choose Custom, and enter a custom metadata field. Insert its value in Default Value.
  6. Click Next. You will be redirected to the Preview & Done section.

Post-installation

Once your app is installed, it will appear in your Installed Apps folder, and dashboard panels will start to fill automatically.

Each panel slowly fills with data matching the time range query and received since the panel was created. Results will not immediately be available, but will update with full graphs and charts over time.

Viewing LastPass dashboards​​​

All dashboards have a set of filters that you can apply to the entire dashboard. Use these filters to drill down and examine the data to a granular level.

  • You can change the time range for a dashboard or panel by selecting a predefined interval from a drop-down list, choosing a recently used time range, or specifying custom dates and times. Learn more.
  • You can use template variables to drill down and examine the data on a granular level. For more information, see Filtering Dashboards with Template Variables.
  • Most Next-Gen apps allow you to provide the scope at the installation time and are comprised of a key (_sourceCategory by default) and a default value for this key. Based on your input, the app dashboards will be parameterized with a dashboard variable, allowing you to change the dataset queried by all panels. This eliminates the need to create multiple copies of the same dashboard with different queries.

Activity and Risk Monitoring​

The LastPass - Activity and Risk Monitoring dashboard provides a detailed view of user actions and event trends, helping security analysts track critical activity. It displays total event counts, new account creations, and top users and actions, allowing for quick identification of frequent behaviors. The event timeline highlights spikes in activity that may indicate potential risks. Additionally, the geo-location maps of events and risky actions offer insights into the geographic distribution of LastPass activities, helping analysts identify regional anomalies or suspicious login patterns. This dashboard is designed to support proactive threat detection and response.

Security Overview​

The LastPass - Security Overview provides a detailed view of key authentication events to help security analysts monitor user activity and detect potential threats. It tracks logins to the admin console, encryption key rotations, and SAML login events, offering insight into critical security operations. The dashboard also highlights recent master password changes, MFA modifications, and both successful and failed authentication attempts. By focusing on these events, analysts can quickly identify suspicious behavior, such as unusual login patterns or password resets, and take action to secure the LastPass environment.

It tracks admin actions such as user provisioning, de-provisioning, and role changes, alongside critical policy modifications and group updates. Additionally, it highlights user actions such as data imports, exports, and shared folder activities. By analyzing trends in these events, security analysts can quickly identify potential risks, such as unauthorized access or sensitive data deletions, ensuring enhanced protection for the LastPass environment.
