We had a user log in remotely either with ESXI, with a VM, with Remote Desktop or with the command prompt using SSH. Our Splunk server is on a domain and we are trying to determine who logged in and made the changes. I have searched the forum and cannot find a definite answer in the community. I'm fairly new to Splunk with writing queries and all so appreciate any help and/or advice anyone can give. Thanks,
Assuming it's linux, run this command on the host:
last
you can also search
/var/log/secure
for "sshd"
Additionally, the Splunk App for Unix extracts data from /var/log/secure and other such system level logs so you can consume that data in Splunk.
