Event Stream (eStream)

AuthActivity AuditEvent

edr.crowdstrike.falconstreaming.auth_activity

estream

The endpoints are dynamically generated by following this (simplified) approach:

Once an authentication token has been obtained, a request to {base_url}/sensors/entities/datafeed/v2 is performed to obtain the “Data Feeds”.
1. Check the {base_url} in the config parameters details for further information.
Each Data Feed will contain a URL and a session token. A request to each of these URLs (along with their corresponding token) will return a streaming response in which every non-empty line represents a different event.
1. Every Data Feed will also contain a “refresh stream” URL, which is accessed every less than 30 minutes.
2. All the Data Feeds are processed in parallel. The amount of available Data Feeds depend on the CrowdStrike account’s configuration.

The Streaming API provides several types of events.

Info
Some of them are documented in https://developer.crowdstrike.com/crowdstrike/docs/streaming-api-events .

Vendor setup

In order to configure the Devo | CrowdStrike API Resources collector, you need to create an API client that will be used to authenticate API requests.

After getting your Crowdstrike CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud credentials, log into the CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud dashboard.
Click the three dots in the left menu bar.
Click API Clients and Keys. This will open a page to create an API client.
Click Add API Client at the top right corner. Enter a CLIENT NAME and DESCRIPTION.
Then, enable the API scopes for your new API client. Click the required Read permissions for each scope and click ADD to create the client.
Finally, copy the Client ID and Client Secret shown on the next screen. You will need these values to configure the collector.

...

<any_directory> └── devo-collectors/ └── devo-collector-crowdstrikeapi/ ├── certs/ │ ├── chain.crt

To enable the collector for a customer:

In the Collector Server GUI, access the domain in which you want this instance to be created
Click Add Collector and find the one you wish to add.
In the Version field, select the latest value.
In the Collector Name field, set the value you prefer (this name must be unique inside the same Collector Server domain).
In the sending method select Direct Send. Direct Send configuration is optional for collectors that create Table events, but mandatory for those that create Lookups.
In the Parameters section, establish the Collector Parameters as follows below:

Maximum value: current date

This parameter allows you to clear the persistence of the collector and restart the download pipeline. Updating this value will produce the loss of all persisted data and current pipelines.

Where:

<partition_id_value>: The partition ID (0, 1, 2…) that will use this initial offset.
<partition_offset_value>: The initial offset. This offset will not be included in the ingestion (it will start from the next offset).

the CrowdStrike Events Stream has partitions, each one streaming its own events and hence managing its own event offset. When querying for events, you can specify an initial offset to start receiving events from. This parameter allows you to define initial offsets for the initial run of this service or when the state is being reset.

6633513ffcaebde1316c017510e249b81e321e28e2e660c6441649a300be6832

Use the following command to add the Docker image to the system:

Code Block
gunzip -c collector-crowdstrike-docker-image-<version>.tgz \| docker load

Once the Docker image is imported, it will show the real name of the Docker image (including version info). Replace "<version>" with a proper value.

The Docker image can be deployed on the following services:

Docker
Docker Compose

Docker

Code Block

docker run \
--name collector-crowdstrikeapi\
--volume $PWD/certs:/devo-collector/certs \
--volume $PWD/config:/devo-collector/config \
--volume $PWD/state:/devo-collector/state \
--env CONFIG_FILE=config-crowdstrikeapi.yaml \
--rm -it docker.devo.internal/collector/crowdstrikeapi:<version>

Note
Replace `<version>` with the required value.

Docker Compose

The following Docker Compose file can be used to execute the Docker container. It must be created in the <any_directory>/devo-collectors/crowdstrikeapi/ directory.

Code Block

version: '3'
services:
  collector-crowdstrikeapi
    image: docker.devo.internal/collector/crowdstrikeapi:${IMAGE_VERSION:-latest}

      - ./config:/devo-collector/config
      - ./state:/devo-collector/state
    environment:
      - CONFIG_FILE=${CONFIG_FILE:-config-crowdstrikeapi.yaml}

To run the container using docker-compose, execute the following command from the <any_directory>/devo-collectors/crowdstrikeapi/ directory:

Code Block
IMAGE_VERSION=<version> docker-compose up -d

Note
Replace `<version>` with the required value.

collector-crowdstrike_api_resources_if-docker-image-1.9.1	`2e1d52a349bf579291556a27027421cc50a1bf399a707d4e42673ec3d6a9dcdc`

Use the following command to add the Docker image to the system:

Code Block
gunzip -c collector-crowdstrike-docker-image-<version>.tgz \| docker load

Once the Docker image is imported, it will show the real name of the Docker image (including version info). Replace "<version>" with a proper value.

The Docker image can be deployed on the following services:

Docker
Docker Compose

Docker

Execute the following command on the root directory <any_directory>/devo-collectors/crowdstrikeapi/

Code Block

docker run \
--name collector-crowdstrikeapi\
--volume $PWD/certs:/devo-collector/certs \
--volume $PWD/config:/devo-collector/config \
--volume $PWD/state:/devo-collector/state \
--env CONFIG_FILE=config-crowdstrikeapi.yaml \
--rm -it docker.devo.internal/collector/crowdstrikeapi:<version>

Note
Replace `<version>` with the required value.

Docker Compose

The following Docker Compose file can be used to execute the Docker container. It must be created in the <any_directory>/devo-collectors/crowdstrikeapi/ directory.

Code Block

version: '3'
services:
  collector-crowdstrikeapi
    image: docker.devo.internal/collector/crowdstrikeapi:${IMAGE_VERSION:-latest}
    volumes:
      - ./certs:/devo-collector/certs
      - ./config:/devo-collector/config
      - ./state:/devo-collector/state
    environment:
      - CONFIG_FILE=${CONFIG_FILE:-config-crowdstrikeapi.yaml}

To run the container using docker-compose, execute the following command from the <any_directory>/devo-collectors/crowdstrikeapi/ directory:

Code Block
IMAGE_VERSION=<version> docker-compose up -d

Note
Replace `<version>` with the required value.

Status

title	FEATURE

Improvements:

Upgraded underlay IFC SDK v1.3.0 to v1.4.0.
Updated the underlying DevoSDK package to v3.6.4 and dependencies, this upgrade increases the resilience of the collector when the connection with Devo or the Syslog server is lost. The collector is able to reconnect in some scenarios without running the self-kill feature.
Support for stopping the collector when a GRACEFULL_SHUTDOWN system signal is received.
Re-enabled the logging to devo.collector.out for Input threads.
Improved self-kill functionality behavior.
Added more details in log traces.
Added log traces for knowing system memory usage.

New Features:

CrowdStrike Event Stream (eStream) data source is now available. This service leverages the CrowdStrike Falcon Event Streams API to obtain the customer’s DataFeed URLs and continuosly fetch events that will be ingested under the edr.crowdstrike.falconstreaming.* family of tables. For more information, check the CrowdStrike’s official documentation.

Improvements:

Upgraded underlay IFC SDK v1.1.3 to v1.3.0.
The resilience has been improved with a new feature that restart the collector when the Devo connections is lost and it cannot be recovered.
When an exception is raised by the Collector Setup, the collector retries after 5 seconds. For consecutive exceptions, the waiting time is multiplied by 5 until hits 1800 seconds, which is the maximum waiting time allowed. No maximum retries are applied.
When an exception is raised by the Collector Pull method, the collector retries after 5 seconds. For consecutive exceptions, the waiting time is multiplied by 5 until hits 1800 seconds, which is the maximum waiting time allowed. No maximum retries are applied.
When an exception is raised by the Collector pre-pull method, the collector retries after 30 seconds. No maximum retries are applied.
