Symon

Hello Sirs,

I would like to know the most useful Splunk App that can be suitable for Linux Auditd events. I have Linux devices such as Mangement Servers, DNS, HTTP Servers, Firewall, etc. These logs carried by both Syslog Forwarder and Heavy forwarders. 


Please suggest how to monitor the audit logs by which Splunk App?

Thanks a bunch.

To effectively monitor Linux Auditd events in Splunk, you can use the Splunk Add-on for Linux.

This add-on allows you to collect and analyze audit logs from your Linux devices. Here’s how you can set it up:

Configure AuditD to Send Data to the Splunk Add-on for Linux:
