Monitoring Splunk

Monitor SCCM Log & correlate to file system changes

Hi,

Currently we monitor some systems with the filesystem change. Almost all the time, any triggers to this are from our updates pushed by the SCCM server. I'd like to start monitoring the systems for when patches are applied by SCCM and correlate that with the filesystem changes via some searches to quickly rule these out as malicious behavior.

How can I monitor SCCM applying updates?

Thanks.

Kevin

Does anyone monitor SCCM logs with Splunk? I know you can do the windows update.log file but what about SCCM? Have I stumped everyone?
