Snare Server version 7.1 Coming Soon

by

Version 7.1 is to be released in February 2016, with the following new features:

  • The Snare Server collection and reflection service has been significantly updated. The Snare Server can now perform format conversion, apply filters to events on a per-destination basis, and can also search/replace event contents on the fly. The core of the collection services and the reflector has been rewritten in C++ for speed. Sample use-cases include:
    • Sending events that are marked only with a particular criticality to a specific destination.
    • Sending Windows events to a destination SIEM server, and unix events to a syslog server.
    • Changing syslog RFC 5424 events to RFC 3164 format, to accommodate a SIEM server that can only handle the older format.
    • Switching events from using a TAB delimiter, to comma.
    • Redirecting all events that include a particular username, to a separate SIEM server for analysis.
    • Forwarding any firewall logs that include a particular IP address range, to another system for deep analysis.
  • Update and Removal of “Trusted CA root Certificates” is available from the Configuration Wizard.
  • Snare Server now supports LDAP/SSL, LDAP/TLS and SASL/TLS authentication.
  • A SNMP trap server can be configured in the Snare Server wizard. A new feature has been added to the Real Time Alerts function in the objectives that so a SNMP Trap will be sent to the server as defined in the wizard when there is a match for the Real Time objective.
  • A new “Auto-Remove Data” objective under “System -> Data Backup” is now available. This objective allows the Administrator to create tasks with a range of selection criteria, that are designed to automatically remove data from the Snare Server archive. Selection criteria include: By agent, by date, and by log type. Regular expressions, and date-delta options are available. Each Auto-Remove task has a specific schedule that determines when it executes.
  • TLS Server certificates associated with the TLS collection service should now use the fully qualified hostname of the server on which they are installed. A freshly installed system will use the fully qualified certificate format.
  • Six new Oracle Objectives have been added to the Snare Server, including:
    • Start-up and Shut-down of the Oracle application
    • Database Global Activity
    • Admin DBA Activity
    • Oracle Security
    • Oracle Startup / Shutdown
    • Password Changes
    • User Activity
  • Seven New Microsoft DNS server logs Objectives with Malware domain detection have been added in the Application Audit/Windows Log Data menu tree:
    • DNS Log
    • DNS over TCP empty
    • DNS over UDP
    • DNS search IP
    • DNS Server Failures
    • Malware Domains
    • Non Existent Domains
