Cloud WAAP Logging Integration Tool - Version 2.1.1

Cloud WAAP Logging Integration Tool - Version 2.1.1

Version 2.1.1 introduces key-based authentication for SFTP transfers, expanding secure connection options within the Cloud WAAP Logging Integration Tool.

Updates in 2.1.1

Key-Based Authentication for SFTP

This beta release adds support for SSH key-based authentication in SFTP transfers. Users can now securely connect to SFTP servers using an SSH private key stored in an environment variable, providing an alternative to password-based authentication and enhancing security flexibility.

Enhanced SFTP Configuration

Configuration options for SFTP now include a toggle for key-based authentication and a designated environment variable for storing the SSH private key. This setup ensures seamless and secure file transfers without the need to modify core code.

Cloud WAAP Logging Integration Tool - Version 2.1.0

Version 2.1.0, released on April 11, 2024, brings targeted improvements to the Cloud WAAP Logging Integration Tool, focusing on flexibility in handling json.gz files and introducing a straightforward method for initial setup testing through .txt files.

Updates in 2.1.0

Original File Format Support for Dell ECS and SFTP

The tool now allows for json.gz files, which are the format originally generated by Radware's Cloud WAAP, to be directly transferred to Dell ECS and SFTP destinations without requiring transformation. This update provides users with the option to retain the original log file format, optimizing for scenarios where log file integrity and compression are preferred.

Test .txt File Support

To aid in the initial deployment and testing phases, this version introduces the capability to process and forward test .txt files. This is particularly useful for users initiating the tool from the Radware Cloud WAAP console, enabling them to send a test .txt file, trigger the lambda via S3, and verify the setup's operational status. This feature simplifies the verification process, ensuring that the integration is correctly configured before proceeding with full-scale log processing.

Cloud WAAP Logging Integration Tool - Version 2.2.0 Beta

Version 2.2.0 Beta, released on April 21, 2024, introduces a significant enhancement in log management capabilities with the addition of advanced log filtering features. This beta release allows users to precisely control the processing of logs based on configurable criteria, ensuring that only relevant data is processed and stored.

Updates in 2.2.0 Beta

Advanced Log Filtering

The highlight of this release is the implementation of advanced log filtering options that can be customized globally or per application. This feature supports json and ndjson formats, aligning with the need for flexible yet efficient log processing frameworks. With this update, users can:

• Exclude specific log entries: Logs can be filtered to exclude entries based on predefined criteria such as actions or violation types, which is particularly useful in environments where the volume of logs is high or specific types of log data are not required for analysis.
• Customize filtering rules: Users can define global settings or override these settings for specific applications, providing unmatched flexibility in log management.
• Enhance operational efficiency: By processing only the logs that meet defined criteria, organizations can optimize their storage and processing resources, leading to cost reductions and improved performance.

This beta release is a step toward more customizable and efficient log management solutions. We encourage users to test this version under non-production conditions and provide feedback as we continue to refine and enhance its capabilities.

Release 2.0.0
We are thrilled to announce the release of Version 2.0.0 of the Cloud WAAP Logging Integration Tool. This update brings a suite of enhancements and new features aimed at broadening the tool's capabilities.

What's New in 2.0.0
Expanded Destination Support: Introducing Dell ECS S3-compatible storage and SFTP servers as new destination options. These additions enable a more secure and flexible approach to log transfers, accommodating a variety of storage solutions.

Advanced Log Enrichment: This version enhances each log entry by ensuring the presence of applicationName and adding both logType and tenantName fields. This enrichment process facilitates deeper analysis and ensures logs are compatible with a wider range of SIEM systems.

Paramiko Layer for Enhanced SFTP Transfers: To facilitate secure SFTP file transfers, this release introduces the paramiko-layer.zip as a crucial Lambda layer. This layer, compatible with Python versions 3.8 through 3.12, is essential for SFTP operations and is available for download with the 2.0.0 release assets.
