You must use a supported SIEM to set up this type of connection. This integration's supported SIEMs include: * Splunk 2. Custom detection rules cannot be used for a via SIEM connection. ## Step 1: Set Up Logging You must first confirm that your SIEM's data sources are logging properly, and then specify which logs the SIEM should ingest, where they should be stored, and any other data quality information that should be included. You should work with your SIEM representative or refer to your SIEM's documentation if you need help with this step. The following web resources are also available: * [Splunk - Get Data from TCP and UDP Ports](https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/7.0.2/Data/Monitornetworkports) {% hint style="info" %} Before continuing to Step 2, note the **Splunk index** where the logs are located (you will need it in a later step). {% endhint %} ## Step 2: Set Up the SIEM You must set up the SIEM as its own security device before you can configure this integration's security device, since you are using it as a connection. Select the link below to go to your SIEM's setup guide, then return to this page when you have completed it: * [Splunk](/connect-your-technology/q-z-integrations/splunk/splunk-setup-for-workbench.md) {% hint style="success" %} Be sure to confirm the SIEM's security device in Workbench is connected and logs are flowing before continuing to Step 3 in this guide. {% endhint %} ## Step 3: Add CyberArk PAM as a Security Device in Workbench Before you begin, make sure you have the Splunk index where the logs are located. {% hint style="info" %} When you set up this device, you will choose the security device you created in Step 2 as the SIEM (this will enable the via SIEM connection). {% endhint %} 1. [Log in to Workbench](https://workbench.expel.io/auth/login?orig=%2F). 2. In the side menu, navigate to **Organization Settings > Security Devices**. If you have multiple organizations, you must select the appropriate organization name from the list. 3. Select **Add Security Device**. 4. In the search box, type “CyberArk” and then select the **CyberArk Privileged Access Management (PAM) (via SIEM)** integration. 5. Complete the fields as follows: * **SIEM** - select the SIEM's device from Step 2. * **Name** - enter a name that might help you more easily identify this integration, such as “CompanyName PAM”; this name will display in Workbench under the Name column, and is a text string that you can filter on. * **Location** - enter the location of your integration, for example “cloud;” this is also a text string that you can filter on, so we recommend being consistent with location naming across your Expel integrations. * **Index** - enter the Splunk index where the logs are located. 6. Select **Save**. Your device should be created successfully within a few seconds. A few reminders: * After your connection is healthy, it will take some time for your device to begin polling and receiving data. * To check on the status, select the downward arrow for your device in the first column and choose **View details**. * Polling will happen first; data will be received after that. **You must refresh the page to see updates.** * If your device does not begin polling within 15 minutes, and does not begin receiving data within 30 minutes, [contact our support team for help](/support/how-to-reach-us.md). * To check if alerts are coming through, navigate to **Dashboards > Alert Analysis**. Scroll to the device you want to check, and select the **Expel Alerts** tab to reveal more alert information. It can take 36 to 72 hours for alerts to appear after setup, as we [tune your device](/workbench-reference/alerts/how-expel-alerts-work.md#device-tuning). --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://docs.expel.io/connect-your-technology/a-c-integrations/cyberark/cyberark-privileged-access-management-pam-via-siem-setup-for-workbench.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
