How can I forward "windows security events" to a third party Syslog server without indexing it to the Splunk.

Hi jawahir007,

Take a look at the docs https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/7.2.4/Forwarding/Routeandfilterdatad#Replicate_a_subset... and leave out the routeAll in props.conf. Do this configuration on a heavy weight forwarder or an indexer, restart and new events will be sent to your third party system.

Hope this helps ...

cheers, MuS
