Configuring D3 SOAR to Work with Veeam Backup & Replication

  1. Log in to D3 SOAR.

  2. Find the Veeam Backup & Replication integration.

    1. Navigate to Configuration on the top header menu.

    2. Click on the Integration icon on the left sidebar.

    3. Type Veeam Backup & Replication in the search box to find the integration, then click it to select it.

    4. Click on the + Connection button on the right side of the Connections section. A new connection window will appear.

  3. Configure the following fields to create a connection to Veeam Backup & Replication.

    1. Connection Name: The desired name for the connection.

    2. Site: Specifies the site to use the integration connection. Use the drop-down menu to select the site. The Share to Internal Sites option enables all sites defined as internal sites to use the connection. Selecting a specific site will only enable that site to use the connection.

    3. Recipient site for events from connections Shared to Internal Sites: This field appears if you selected Share to Internal Sites for Site to let you select the internal site to deploy the integration connection.

    4. Agent Name (Optional): Specifies the proxy agent required to build the connection. Use the dropdown menu to select the proxy agent from a list of previously configured proxy agents.

    5. Description (Optional): Add your desired description for the connection.

    6. Tenant (Optional): When configuring the connection from a master tenant site, you have the option to choose the specific tenant sites you want to share the connection with. Once you enable this setting, you can filter and select the desired tenant sites from the dropdowns to share the connection.

    7. Configure User Permissions: Defines which users have access to the connection.

    8. Active: Check the checkbox to ensure the connection is available for use.

    9. System: This section contains the parameters defined specifically for the integration. These parameters must be configured to create the integration connection.
      1. Input the Server URL.
      2. Input the User Name.
      3. Input the Password.
      4. Input the API Version. The default value is v1.

    10. Enable Password Vault: An optional feature that allows users to take the stored credentials from their own password vault. Refer to the password vault connection guide if needed.
      Connection Health Check: Updates the connection status you have created. A connection health check is done by scheduling the Test Connection command of this integration. This can only be done when the connection is active.
      To set up a connection health check, check the Connection Health Check tick box. You can customize the interval (minutes) for scheduling the health check. An email notification can be set up after a specified number of failed connection attempts.

  4. Test the connection.

    1. Click Test Connection to verify the account credentials and network connection. If the Test Connection Passed alert window appears, the test connection is successful. You will see Passed with a green check mark appear beside the Test Connection button. If the test connection fails, check your connection parameters and try again.

    2. Click OK to close the alert window.

    3. Click + Add to create and add the configured connection.

Create Malware Event

Creates a new malware event.

Input

Input Parameter

Required/Optional

Description

Example

Detection Time

Required

The date and time, in UTC, when a new malware event is detected.

2024-08-26 11:49:01

Machine FQDN

Optional

Identifies a machine by its Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN). Veeam Backup & Replication can recognize a machine using its FQDN, IPv4 address, or IPv6 address, provided the machine is powered on during the backup. If the machine is powered off at the time of backup, Veeam Backup & Replication cannot retrieve the machine's IP addresses or domain name and, therefore, cannot identify it.

At least two of the following parameters must be specified: Machine FQDN, IPv4, IPv6, or Machine UUID. Machine FQDN, IPv4, IPv6, or Machine BIOS UUID information can be obtained from third-party products, such as EDR or XDR.

PMATest02

Machine IPv4

Optional

Identifies a machine by its IPv4 address. Veeam Backup & Replication can recognize a machine using its FQDN, IPv4 address, or IPv6 address only if the machine is powered on during the backup. If the machine is powered off at the time of backup, Veeam Backup & Replication cannot retrieve the machine's IP addresses or domain name, rendering the machine unidentifiable.

At least two of the following parameters must be specified: Machine FQDN, IPv4, IPv6, or Machine UUID. Information such as Machine FQDN, IPv4, IPv6, or Machine BIOS UUID can be obtained from third-party products, such as EDR or XDR.

192.168.12.100

Machine IPv6

Optional

Identifies a machine by its IPv6 address.Veeam Backup & Replication can recognize a machine using its FQDN, IPv4 address, or IPv6 address only if the machine is powered on during the backup. If the machine is powered off at the time of backup, Veeam Backup & Replication cannot retrieve the machine's IP addresses or domain name, rendering the machine unidentifiable.

At least two of the following parameters must be specified: Machine FQDN, IPv4, IPv6, or Machine UUID. Information such as Machine FQDN, IPv4, IPv6, or Machine BIOS UUID can be obtained from third-party products, such as EDR or XDR.

Fetch Event Field Mapping

Fetch Event commands require event field mapping. Field mapping plays a key role for data normalization within the event pipeline. Field mapping converts the original data fields from the different providers to standardized D3 fields as defined by the D3 Model. Refer to Event and Incident Intake Field Mapping for details.

To customize field mapping, click + Add Field and add the custom field of your choice. You can also remove built-in field mappings by clicking x. Note that two underscore characters will automatically prefix the defined Field Name as the System Name for a custom field mapping. Additionally, if an input Field Name contains any spaces, they will automatically be replaced with underscores for the corresponding System Name.

As a system integration, the Veeam Backup & Replication integration has some pre-configured field mappings for default field mapping.

  • Default Event Source
    The Default Event Source is the default set of field mappings that are applied when this fetch event command is executed. For out-of-the-box integrations, you will find a set of field mapping provided by the system. Default event source provides field mappings for common fields from fetched events. The default event source has a "Main Event JSON Path" (i.e. $.data) that is used to extract a batch of events from the response raw data. Click Edit Event Source to view the "Main Event JSON Path".

    • Main Event JSON Path: $.data

The Main Event JSON Path determines the root path where the system starts parsing raw response data into D3 event data. The JSON path begins with $, representing the root element. The path is formed by appending a sequence of child elements to $, each separated by a dot (.). Square brackets with nested quotation marks ([‘...’]) should be used to separate child elements in JSON arrays.

For example, the root node of a JSON Path is data. The child node denoting the Unique Event Key field would be id. Putting it together, the JSON Path expression to extract the Unique Event Key is $.data.id.

The pre-configured field mappings are detailed below:
