GCP Logs
Connecting GCP logs to your Panther Console
Overview
Panther supports ingesting Google Cloud Platform (GCP) logs via common Data Transport options.
How to onboard GCP logs to Panther
Prerequisite
Set a default Data Access audit logging configuration for your Google Cloud services:
In your GCP console, navigate to the IAM & Admin service. In the navigation bar, click Audit Logs.
Click Set Default Configuration.
In the Log Types tab, check the boxes for the following types: Admin Read, Data Read, and Data Write.
Click Save.
Step 1: Create a Google Cloud source in Panther
In the left-hand navigation bar of your Panther Console, click Configure > Log Sources.
Click Create New.
Search for "GCP" then click the Google Cloud tile.
In the slide-out panel, in the Transport Mechanism dropdown in the upper right corner, select Google Cloud Pub/Sub.
It is possible to use any of the Data Transport options, but is recommended to use Pub/Sub in conjunction with a log sink, which you will configure in the next step.
Follow the Panther documentation for configuring your selected Data Transport.
If you selected Pub/Sub, follow the Pub/Sub Source instructions.
Step 2: Configure GCP to push logs to the Data Transport source
See GCP's documentation for instructions on how to forward logs to your selected Data Transport source.
If you are using Pub/Sub or Google Cloud Storage as your Data Transport, configure a log sink.

Supported log types
GCP.AuditLog
The GCP.AuditLog schema supports ingesting all four types of Google Cloud audit logs:
For more information, see the GCP Documentation on Cloud Audit Logs.

Cloud Audit Logs maintains audit logs for each Google Cloud project, folder, and organization: Admin Activity, Data Access, System Event, and Policy Denied.
Google Cloud services write audit log entries to these logs to help you answer the questions of "who did what, where, and when?" within your Google Cloud resources.

External HTTP(S) Load Balancing distributes HTTP and HTTPS traffic to backends hosted on a variety of Google Cloud platforms (such as Compute Engine, Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE), Cloud Storage, and so on), as well as external backends connected over the internet or via hybrid connectivity. HTTP(S) load balancing logs provide information for monitoring and debugging web traffic.
