SIEM

The same agent that inventories your machines collects their logs, and a single small agent can receive the logs of your firewalls and switches. Thousands of detection rules run on every event as it arrives, and every event stays searchable for as long as you choose.

At a glance

  • One agent for logs, inventory and protection on Windows, Linux and macOS
  • 5,000+ detection rules mapped to MITRE ATT&CK, ready on day one
  • Network devices by syslog, without a separate collector server
  • Retention you choose from a week to years, searchable the whole time
  • Alerts by e-mail, Slack, Microsoft Teams, webhook or syslog

Collect, detect, investigate

A traditional SIEM project starts with collectors, parsers and months of rule writing before the first useful alert. Vorpcel starts from the agent you install for vulnerability management and ships the detection already written.

01

Collect

Turn on log collection per machine. The agent sends system and security logs, programs started and changes to important files, over an encrypted connection.

02

Detect

Every event is put in one format and checked against the detection rules as it arrives. A match becomes an alert with its severity and the attacker technique it suggests.

03

Investigate

From the alert, open the events around it on the same machine or search across every machine and period, with a query language made for security questions.

What flows in

Windows

Security, system, application, PowerShell and Defender logs, plus every program started

Linux and macOS

System journal, authentication, sudo and audit logs, and every program started

Your own log files

Any application log you point the agent to, per group of machines

Containers

Containers created, started, stopped and commands run inside them

Network devices

Firewalls, switches and appliances, by syslog to an agent you choose

File integrity

Changes to the files and registry keys that matter, with who made them

What is included

One event format

A failed logon looks the same whether it came from Windows, Linux or a VPN appliance: the same fields for who, from where and what happened. One search finds it everywhere.

  • Fields named by what they mean, such as user, source address and process, not by the product that produced them
  • The original message kept next to the normalized fields, for evidence and for anything the format does not cover

Detection you can tune

More than 5,000 detection rules from the security community and our own team, mapped to MITRE ATT&CK and ready on day one. Every environment is different, so every rule can be adjusted without being copied or rewritten.

  • Turn off Switch off any rule for your account; its past alerts stay.
  • Change the level Make a rule critical or low for your environment, without editing it.
  • Add exceptions Silence a rule for a machine, account, address or path, with the reason kept.
  • Write your own Upload rules in the common open YAML format; they are checked and live within seconds.

Correlations

Brute force, password spraying and other patterns that only appear across many events.

  • Many failed logons against one account, or one failed logon against many accounts
  • A successful logon right after a series of failures from the same address

Threat intelligence built in

Connections and name lookups from your machines are compared with public lists of addresses and domains used by malware and attackers. A match raises an alert that names the list and the destination.

  • Network connections and DNS lookups recorded on Windows, with the program that made them
  • Program fingerprints compared with known malware at launch

Search every event

Investigations need the raw history, not only the alerts. Every event can be searched by any field, over any period you keep, and the result exported for a report or another tool.

  • Filters written as object and attribute, such as the user, the process or the source address
  • The events before and after an alert on the same machine, opened from the alert

Kept as long as you need, sent where you work

Retention you choose

Events stay searchable for the period in your contract, from a week to years, and older events move to low-cost storage instead of being deleted.

Alerts where your team is

Each alert channel chooses its events and minimum severity. Webhooks are signed, so your systems can trust them.

Questions

Do we need a separate server to collect logs?

No. Machines send their own logs through the agent. For devices that cannot run an agent, such as firewalls, you choose one machine with the agent to receive their syslog and forward it.

How is the price calculated?

By the number of machines with log collection turned on. There is no charge per gigabyte, so a busy day does not change your bill.

Can we use the SIEM without vulnerability management?

Yes. Each product is turned on per machine. The agent is the same, so adding the other later needs no new installation.

Is the data separated from other customers?

Yes. Every event is stored and searched with the account it belongs to, and the agent sends it over an encrypted connection with its own credential.
