Cloudflare Zero Trust Network Session Logs

Overview

Cloudflare is a global network designed to make everything you connect to the Internet secure, private, fast, and reliable. In this documentation, you will learn how to collect and send Cloudflare Zero Trust Network Session Logs to Sekoia.io.

  • Vendor: Cloudflare
  • Supported environment: SaaS
  • Detection based on: Telemetry
  • Supported application or feature: Network protocol analysis, Netflow/Enclave netflow, SSL/TLS inspection, Web proxy

Configuration

Create the intake on Sekoia.io

Go to the intake page and create a new intake from the format Cloudflare.

Configure events forwarding on Cloudflare

Retrieve necessary information

First, you will have to retrieve configuration information. Connect to Cloudflare Console to collect the following :

  1. Cloudflare API Token

    • Go to My Profile, then on the left panel, click on API Tokens.
    • Click on the Create Token button and select the Create Custom Token entry.
    • Give a name to your token and set the following permissions:
    Scope Group Level
    Account Account Analytics Read
    Account Logs Read
    Account Logs Edit
    Zone Logs Read
    Zone Logs Edit
    • If you want zerotrust logs you should also add:
    Scope Group Level
    Account Zero Trust Read

    see the Cloudflare documentation

  2. Cloudflare Zone ID :

    • This information is specific to a Website.
    • On the left panel, click on Websites and select the Website you want.
    • On the right panel, there is an API section where you can retrieve the Zone ID.

Create a Logpush job

Configure a Logpush job with the following destination:

https://intake.sekoia.io/plain/batch?header_X-SEKOIAIO-INTAKE-KEY=<YOUR_INTAKE_KEY>

Warning

The previous URL works for the FRA1 region. For any other region, replace the domain "intake.sekoia.io" with your region's HTTP-intake domain, for example:

https://app.usa1.sekoia.io/api/v1/intake-http

You can find your region's domain here: https://docs.sekoia.com/getting_started/regions/

To do so, you can manage Logpush with cURL:

$ curl -X POST 'https://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/accounts/<CLOUDFLARE_ACCOUNT_ID>/logpush/jobs' \
-H 'Authorization: Bearer <CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN>' \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \

      "messages": [],

      },
      "success": true
    }
    

Important

Replace:

  • <YOUR_INTAKE_KEY> with the Intake key you generated in the Create the intake on Sekoia.io step.
  • <CLOUDFLARE_ACCOUNT_ID> with the ACCOUNT_ID found on the overview page
  • <CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN> with the API Token you generated
Useful Cloudflare API endpoints

On their documentation, Cloudflare provides a list API endpoints you can use. Find below some useful endpoints:

  • https://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/accounts/<ACCOUNT_ID>/logpush/jobs/<JOB_ID> to verify the job you previously created is correct (you need to specify the JOB_ID)
  • https://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/accounts/<ACCOUNT_ID>/logpush/datasets/<DATASET>/jobs to get all the jobs for a specific dataset (dns_log, firewalls_events or http_requests in our case)
  • https://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/accounts/<ACCOUNT_ID>/logpush/jobs/<JOB_ID> to update a job if you noticed a mistake after the creation of the job (wrong fields, wrong SEKOIA API Key...)

Raw Events Samples

In this section, you will find examples of raw logs as generated natively by the source. These examples are provided to help integrators understand the data format before ingestion into Sekoia.io. It is crucial for setting up the correct parsing stages and ensuring that all relevant information is captured.

Detection section

The following section provides information for those who wish to learn more about the detection capabilities enabled by collecting this intake. It includes details about the built-in rule catalog, event categories, and ECS fields extracted from raw events. This is essential for users aiming to create custom detection rules, perform hunting activities, or pivot in the events page.

No related built-in rules was found. This message is automatically generated.

Event Categories

The following table lists the data source offered by this integration.

Data Source Description
Network protocol analysis Network sessions and protocols analyzed by Cloudflare Zero Trust
Netflow/Enclave netflow Network flow metadata for proxied connections
SSL/TLS inspection TLS handshakes, ciphers, and certificate validation details
Web proxy Network traffic proxied through Cloudflare Zero Trust Gateway

In details, the following table denotes the type of events produced by this integration.

Name Values
Kind event
Category network
Type connection

Transformed Events Samples after Ingestion

This section demonstrates how the raw logs will be transformed by our parsers. It shows the extracted fields that will be available for use in the built-in detection rules and hunting activities in the events page. Understanding these transformations is essential for analysts to create effective detection mechanisms with custom detection rules and to leverage the full potential of the collected data.
