Integrating Invicti Enterprise with Splunk

This document is for:

Invicti Enterprise On-Demand, Invicti Enterprise On-Premises

Splunk is a Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) software that is used to read and store machine-generated data.

Splunk aims to collect data like operating system logs, antivirus events, etc in a single central location to generate graphs, reports, and alerts. Integrating with Splunk helps you to increase information security so that you can collect identified issues or vulnerabilities.

This article explains how to integrate Splunk with Invicti Enterprise.

There are four stages:

There are two add-ons for Splunk. Download the add-on based on your Splunk configuration.

How to install the add-on for Splunk Enterprise

First, locate the Invicti Enterprise add-on in Splunkbase: https://splunkbase.splunk.com/app/4825/.
Follow these instructions to install the add-on: About installing Splunk add-ons.
Once the Invicti Enterprise add-on is installed, it should be configured to collect issues from the Invicti Enterprise API (see How to Configure Add-on Settings). The add-on can collect data from both On-demand and On-premise editions of Invicti Enterprise.

How to install the add-on for Splunk Cloud

First, locate the Invicti Enterprise add-on For Splunk Cloud in Splunkbase: https://splunkbase.splunk.com/app/5511/.
Follow these instructions to install the add-on: Install an add-on in Splunk Cloud.
