Bitdefender

Bitdefender is an antivirus software. This integration allows you to send Bitdefender logs to your Logz.io SIEM account.

Before you begin, you'll need:

Generate Bitdefender GravityZone API key​

  • Log in to your Bitdefender GravityZone Control Center.
  • Click the username in the upper-right corner and select My Account.
  • Go to API keys and click + Add (top left).
  • Enable Event Push Service API and REST API.
  • Click Save.

Copy the Bitdefender GravityZone API Access URL​

Open Control Center API and copy the Access URL. Keep it handy for the following steps.

It is needed to replace the placeholder <<ACCESS_URL>> below.

Copy Bitdefender API ACCESS URL

Encode the API Key in Base64​

Open a MAC or linux terminal. Run the echo command with the new API Key created in the previous section.

echo -n "[<API_KEY]>": | base64

Sample response (shortened for simplicity): AeFgjU5N0Eg4rRMwFGG=AeFgjU5N0Eg4rRMwFGG=

Copy the encoded API Kay. Keep it handy for the next step. It is needed to replace the placeholder <<ENCODED_API_KEY_BASE_64>> below.

Configure event push settings​

Use a CURL command to configure Bitdefender event push settings.

Edit the placeholders before running the command:

curl -k -X POST
<<ACCESS_URL>>/v1.0/jsonrpc/push
-H 'authorization: Basic <<ENCODED_API_KEY_BASE_64>>'
-H 'cache-control: no-cache'
-H 'content-type: application/json'
-d '{"params": {"status": 1,"serviceType": "cef","serviceSettings": {"url": "https://<<LISTENER-HOST>>:8071?token=<<LOG-SHIPPING-TOKEN>>&type=bitdefender_grzone","requireValidSslCertificate": false,"authorization": "Basic <<ENCODED_API_KEY_BASE_64>>"},"subscribeToEventTypes": {"adcloud":true,"antiexploit":true,"aph":true,"av":true,"avc":true,"dp":true,"endpoint-moved-in":true,"endpoint-moved-out":true,"exchange-malware":true,"exchange-user-credentials":true,"fw":true,"hd":true,"hwid-change":true,"install":true,"modules":true,"network-monitor":true,"network-sandboxing":true,"new-incident":true,"registration":true,"supa-update-status":true,"sva":true,"sva-load":true,"task-status":true,"troubleshooting-activity":true,"uc":true,"uninstall":true}},"jsonrpc": "2.0","method": "setPushEventSettings","id": "1"}'

Replace the placeholders to match your specifics. (They are indicated by the double angle brackets << >>):

  • Replace <<LOG-SHIPPING-TOKEN>> with the token of the account you want to ship to.

  • Replace <<LISTENER-HOST>> with the host for your region. For example, listener.logz.io if your account is hosted on AWS US East, or listener-nl.logz.io if hosted on Azure West Europe.

  • <<ACCESS_URL>>: Replace with the Access URL copied in a previous step.
  • <<ENCODED_API_KEY_BASE_64>>: Replace with the encoded key returned in the previous step. (Do NOT delete the term basic. It belongs there.)

Expected returned value​

The returned value should look like this:

{"id":"1","jsonrpc":"2.0","result":true}
