Integrating with Cloudflare

Overview

You can use HTTP Ingest to integrate Blumira with Cloudflare and bypass the need for an on-premises Ubuntu sensor or traditional API-polling Cloud Connector. This method uses Blumira’s Cloud Ingest API, which provides a unique HTTPS endpoint where your organization can transfer structured logs.

Most Blumira editions have no limit to the number of HTTP integrations you can add. However, the following restrictions apply:

• Detect Lite, Respond Core, and SIEM Core editions have a limit of one ingestion source
• M365 Edition accounts do not include access to any HTTP logging

Before you begin

Before configuring any log source for outbound HTTP log streaming, you must generate your unique ingestion credentials by doing the following:

1. In the Blumira app, navigate to Ingestion > HTTP Ingestion.
2. Click Add Ingestion Instance.
3. In the window that appears, do the following:
   1. In Vendor, select the vendor you would like to integrate with.
   2. (Optional) In Ingestion Instance Name, edit the pre-populated name.
   3. (Optional) In Description, type a description that provides context for this instance being created.
   4. Click Save.
4. In the Credentials window, do at least one of the following:
   • Copy and save each credential to use later when configuring your vendor integration.

   • Keep the Credentials window open to copy and paste the values directly from Blumira into the vendor's site in a different browser tab. 

     Important: You must copy the token before you close the window. You will not be able to see the token again after you close the Credentials window.

Configuring Cloudflare

To integrate with Cloudflare and start receiving logs, do the following:

1. In Cloudflare, navigate to Analytics & logs > Logpush.
2. Click +Create a Logpush job.
3. In Select Destination, click HTTP destination. 
4. In the HTTP endpoint (required) box, paste the HTTP Endpoint value you copied from the Credentials for Cloudflare window in Blumira.
5. Click Continue.
6. In Select dataset, click Audit logs v2.
7. In Configure logpush job, do the following:
   1. Under Job name, type a name to identify your logpush jobs by.
   2. Under If logs match…, select All logs.
   3. Under Send the following fields…, select the check boxes next to Select All and General.
   4. Click Submit.
