AWS Security Hub

About the Device

AWS Security Hub provides you with a comprehensive view of your security state in AWS and helps you check your environment against security industry standards and best practices.

Security Hub collects security data from across AWS accounts, services, and supported third-party partner products and helps you analyze your security trends and identify the highest priority security issues.

AWS Security Hub reduces the effort of collecting and prioritizing security findings across accounts, from AWS services, and AWS partner tools. The service ingests data using a standard findings format called ASFF.

Device Configuration

Prerequisite:

We support two methods to ingest logs into Chronicle from AWS Security Hub. The Lambda+S3+SQS method is preferred, while the Data Firehose method is secondary.

Based on our observations, Firehose generally incurs higher costs.

Device Configuration

Method 1: Lambda+S3+SQS

Please follow below steps to forward security hub findings to Cloudwatch log group:

  1. Navigate to Amazon EventBridge, Click Rules and click create rule.

    1. Choose Custom pattern (JSON editor)

    2. Copy the following example pattern and paste it into the Event pattern text area. Be sure to replace the existing brackets.

{ "source": ["aws.securityhub"], "detail-type": ["Security Hub Findings - Custom Action", "Security Hub Findings – Imported"] }

 

  1. On the target screen, select AWS Service as target type. Select target as CloudWatch log group.

    1. Select the Log Group.

  1. On the review and create screen, review your configured event pattern, target and click Create rule.

If you have enabled security hub, findings will be forwarded to the provided CloudWatch log group.

 As Adaptive MxDR support logging through SQS, we have to export logs from cloudwatch to S3 and attach SQS to S3 bucket. Please follow below page to automate continuous export of logs from cloudwatch loggroup to S3 bucket using lambda.

 Once logs are available in the S3 bucket, please configure SQS, please follow below step:

  1. Follow the guide provided above for log export from Cloudwatch log group to S3 bucket.

  2. Create SQS and attach it with S3. Please refer:

Method 2: Amazon Data Firehose
