Splunk Data Source Assessment
SIEM Data Source Assessment
Determine Your SIEM's Data's Health & Performance
Ensure Your Data Follows Best Practices
It’s vital to stay on top of your data sources’ health and performance. SP6’s Data Source Assessment reviews your organization’s SIEM’s data sources to ensure data is being ingested and parsed according to that SIEM’s best practices. We understand that each SIEM provides many options for onboarding various data sources and these integrations with IT tools and platforms are constantly evolving.
This can lead to organizations using inefficient or error-prone methods until identified and resolved. By teaming up with SP6, you can take a proactive approach to improving the timeliness, completeness, and accuracy of the data ingested into your environment.
What's Included in SP6's Data Source Assessment?
Log Source Assessment
We’ll assess several log sources: validating verbosity of raw log sources, identifying delays in log ingestions, and offering resolutions for reducing future instances.
TA Installation / Upgrades
We’ll support and facilitate the installation and upgrades of supported TAs with expertise from our readily-available engineers.
Log Parsing Evaluation
We’ll evaluate log parsing and resolve any issues identified while consulting on additional log feeds that could be beneficial to ingest and monitor based on your environment.
Data Source Normalization
We’ll normalize your data sources to ensure they’re aligned to commonly utilized Data Models following your SIEM’s best practices.
Environment Health Check
We’ll investigate any critical errors or warnings identified by the SIEM while determining the best methods of resolution for out-of-scope issues.
Data Onboarding
We’ll provide a comprehensive onboarding of any data sources you request as well as data sources recommended by our engineers.
