    Custom event properties to be added

    The following custom event properties are added when the app is installed:

    • urls
    • feed
    • geo
    • hash
    • files
    • first_seen
    • last_seen
    • mask
    • popularity
    • threat
    • whois
    • URL
    • SHA1 Hash
    • SHA256 Hash
    • MD5 Hash
    • ip
    • records_count

    You will use these properties to enable the indexes of the added custom event properties and to specify the log source type.

    If you use Kaspersky CyberTrace App for QRadar, you can remove the fields added to QRadar when retrieving custom event properties. These fields duplicate the fields used in Kaspersky CyberTrace App for QRadar. If instead you remove the fields added during the Kaspersky CyberTrace App for QRadar installation, the application may not work correctly.

  7. Click Install again.

    Kaspersky Threat Feed App appears in the Extensions Management form after it is installed.

  8. Refresh the browser window before you use the app.

    After Kaspersky CyberTrace App for QRadar is installed, its name will appear as a tab—Kaspersky Data Feeds—in QRadar Console.

  10. In the Configuration required form:
    1. In the QRadar authentication token field, specify an authentication token to access QRadar REST API.

      You can specify an existing token or create a new token.

      If the specified token expires, the Configuration required form will appear again the next time you select Kaspersky Data Feeds. In this case, you must specify a new token.

    2. In the Kaspersky CyberTrace Service connection string field, specify the IP address and port that Kaspersky CyberTrace Service listens on for incoming events.

      You cannot specify the 127.0.0.1 IP address, even if Kaspersky Threat Feed App is installed on the QRadar computer. Instead, specify the external IP address of the QRadar computer.

    3. In the Kaspersky CyberTrace Service log source name field, specify the log source name of Kaspersky CyberTrace Service as it is registered in QRadar.

      This name is displayed in the Name column of the window that opens after Admin > Log Sources is selected in QRadar Console. For example, KL_Threat_Feed_Service_v2.

      For more information about specifying log sources, see the section about configuring Kaspersky CyberTrace App for QRadar.
