AWS CloudTrail
Connecting AWS CloudTrail logs to your Panther Console
Panther supports ingesting Amazon Web Services (AWS) CloudTrail logs via AWS S3 or CloudWatch Logs.
Walkthrough video showing how to onboard AWS CloudTrail logs to Panther
To pull CloudTrail logs into Panther, you will need to set up a Data Transport using either S3 or CloudWatch Logs.
- 1.In the lefthand navigation bar of your Panther Console, click Configure > Log Sources.
- 2.Click Create New.
- 3.Search "AWS" to see the list of available log sources.
- 4.Select AWS CloudTrail.
- 5.Click the AWS S3 Bucket or CloudWatch Logs transport method to begin setup. Follow Panther’s documentation for configuring S3 or using CloudWatch Logs for data transport.
The latency between an event occurring in AWS and the event being sent to CloudTrail can be up to 15 minutes, but we commonly see data coming in at an average of 3.5 minutes. For more information, see AWS's documentation on how CloudTrail works.
AWSCloudTrail represents the content of a CloudTrail S3 object. For more information, see AWS's documentation on CloudTrail log events.
