Splunk

The Files.com integration with Splunk Enterprise and Splunk Cloud utilizes Splunk's HTTP Event Collector to directly transfer Files.com logs into your Splunk environment, keeping your data current for real-time analysis. This integration allows you to configure the transfer of various log types to Splunk, enhancing your capability to monitor, analyze, and respond to events with greater precision and efficiency.

These logs are sent in JSON format via HTTP, ensuring compatibility with Splunk's data ingestion pipeline. Whether you are using Splunk Enterprise on-premise or leveraging Splunk Cloud, Files.com enables secure, reliable log forwarding to help organizations monitor, detect, and respond to security events effectively.

Getting Started with Splunk Integration

Files.com uses Splunk's HTTP Event Collector (HEC) to send audit logs and actions to a Splunk deployment via HTTP or HTTPS protocols, utilizing token-based authentication. By generating a token, you can configure Files.com to transmit logs to HEC in the JSON format, eliminating the need for a Splunk forwarder.

Refer to Splunk's documentation on setting up and using the HTTP Event Collector in Splunk Web for more details.
