Enhanced Application Logs for Palo Alto Networks Cloud Services
The firewall can collect data that increases visibility into network activity
for Palo Alto Networks apps and services, like Cortex XDR and IoT Security. These
Enhanced Application logs are designed strictly for Palo Alto Networks apps and
services to consume and process; you cannot view Enhanced Application logs on the
firewall or Panorama. Only firewalls sending logs to the logging service can
generate Enhanced Application logs.
Enhanced Application Logging can cause undesired logging
behavior, such as the generation of URL Filtering logs for traffic to allowed
categories. This can impact storage capacity and performance. Disable this feature
to reduce undesired logs.
Follow these procedures to enable log forwarding
for Enhanced Application logs for Cortex XDR and IoT Security:
- Cortex XDR
- IoT Security
Cortex XDR
The types of data that Enhanced Application logs gather include records of
DNS queries, the HTTP header User Agent field that specifies the web browser or
tool used to access a URL, and information about DHCP automatic IP address
assignment. With DHCP information, for example, Cortex XDR™ can alert on unusual
activity based on hostname instead of IP address. This allows the security
analyst using Cortex XDR to meaningfully assess whether the user’s activity is
within the scope of their role, and if not, to more quickly take action to stop
the activity.
To benefit from the most comprehensive set of Enhanced
Application logs, enable User-ID. Deployments for the Windows-based User-ID
agent and the PAN-OS integrated User-ID agent both collect some data that isn’t
reflected in the firewall User-ID logs but is useful for associating network
activity with specific users.
To start forwarding Enhanced Application
logs to Strata Logging Service, turn on Enhanced Application Logging
globally, and then enable it on a per-security rule basis (using a Log
Forwarding profile). The global setting is required and captures data for
traffic that isn’t session-based (ARP requests, for example). The per-security
policy rule setting is strongly recommended; the majority of Enhanced
Application logs are gathered from the session-based traffic that your Security
policy rules enforce.
- Enhanced Application Logging requires a Strata Logging Service subscription. User-ID is also recommended. Here are steps to get started with and enable User-ID.
- To Enable enhanced application logging on the firewall, select DeviceSetupManagementCloud Logging and edit the Cloud Logging Settings.
- Continue to enable Enhanced Application Logging for the Security policy rules that control the traffic into which you want extended visibility.
- Select ObjectsLog Forwarding and Add or modify a Log Forwarding profile.
- Update the profile to Enable enhanced application logs in cloud logging (including traffic and url logs).Notice that when you enable Enhanced Application Logging in a Log Forwarding profile, match lists that specify the log types required for Enhanced Application Logging are automatically added to the profile.
- Click OK to save the profile and continue to update as many profiles as needed.
- Ensure that the Log Forwarding profile that you’ve updated is attached to a Security policy rule, to trigger log generation and forwarding for the traffic matched to the rule.
- To view the profiles attached to each Security policy rule, select PoliciesSecurity.
- To update the Log Forwarding profile attached to a rule, Add or edit a rule and select PoliciesSecurityActionsLog Forwarding and select the Log Forwarding profile enabled with Enhanced Application Logging.
IoT Security
One part of the firewall setup for IoT Security involves creating a Log
Forwarding profile and applying it to Security policy rules. Although you can
apply a profile to each rule individually, a simpler approach is to select a
predefined Log Forwarding profile and apply it to as many rules as you like in
bulk. The following steps explain this approach to adding the predefined Log
Forwarding profile to Security policy rules in bulk.
To use this
workflow, you must have already configured Security policy rules, enabled
logging on the rules, and enabled logging services with Enhanced
Application Logging.
- Apply a Log Forwarding profile for IoT Security to Security policy rules.
- Log in to your next-generation firewall and select PoliciesLog Forwarding for Security Services in the Policy Optimizer section.
- To view all your Security policy rules, including those with a Log Forwarding profile and those without it, select All for Log Forwarding Profile.
- Select the rules for which you want to forward logs to the logging service.
- Attach Log Forwarding Profile at the bottom of the page.
- To apply the default Log Forwarding profile to your rules, choose IoT Security Default Profile - EAL Enabled and OK.The default profile is preconfigured to provide IoT Security with all the log types it requires, including Enhanced Application logs.You don’t have to Enable Enhanced IoT Logging because Enhanced Application Logging (EAL) is already enabled on IoT Security Default Profile.orTo add the forwarding of EALs to an existing Log Forwarding profile that doesn’t already have it, choose it from the Log Forwarding Profile list, select Enable Enhanced IoT Logging and then OK.When you Enable Enhanced IoT Logging, PAN-OS updates the chosen Log Forwarding profile itself and thereby enables enhanced log forwarding on all rules that use the same Log Forwarding profile.PAN-OS adds the chosen Log Forwarding profile to those rules that don’t already have one and replaces previously assigned profiles with this one.
- Commit your changes.
