Wiz Log Monitoring

Integration Overview

Wiz is a cloud security platform that provides organizations with tools to identify, assess, and manage security risks across their cloud infrastructure. Panther can collect, normalize, and monitor Wiz logs to help you identify suspicious activity in real-time. Your normalized data is retained for future security investigations in a data lake powered by Snowflake.

Use Cases for Wiz Logs

Common SIEM use cases for these logs include:

  • Detecting changes to cloud security controls in your Wiz account
  • Monitoring user access to Wiz
  • Correlating Wiz vulnerability findings with other activities in your environment

Onboarding Wiz Logs in Panther

Panther’s integration for Wiz is easy to configure, allowing you to onboard your log data in just a few minutes. Panther accesses the Wiz API using a scoped service account that you create.

For more details on onboarding Wiz logs or for supported log schema, you can view our Wiz documentation here.

Normalizing & Analyzing Wiz Events

As Panther ingests events, they are parsed, normalized, and stored in a Snowflake security data lake. This empowers security teams to craft detections, identify anomalies, and conduct investigations on your data in the context of days, weeks, or months.

Panther’s managed schema will apply normalization fields to your Wiz events, standardizing attribute names and empowering users to correlate and investigate data across all log types. For more on searching log data in Panther, check out our documentation on Investigations & Search.

Detection as Code

With Panther, your team won’t be confined to restrictive detection rules as seen in many SIEM platforms. Panther is built with detection-as-code principles, allowing users to use Python to write expressive detections and integrate external systems like version control and CI/CD pipelines into your detection engineering workflows. This results in powerful, flexible, and reusable scripting of detections for your security team. In addition, you can create correlation rules to link multiple events together, like IDP logs and Wiz logs, for highly targeted alerts.

A number of pre-built detections for Wiz are available by default in Panther, offering users immediate value for monitoring common IoCs and threats. You can explore our built-in detection coverage for Wiz logs here.

Configuring Alerts

Panther fires alerts when your detection rules or policies are triggered and integrates with a variety of alert destinations to allow for easy access and management of any Wiz alerts. Alerts can also be forwarded to alert context or SOAR platforms for more remediation options.

Alerts are categorized in five different severity levels: Info, Low, Medium, High, and Critical. Security teams have the options to dynamically assign severity based on specific log event attributes.

Customer Support

If you have any questions about configuring Wiz with Panther, we’re here to help. All customers have access to our technical support team via a dedicated Slack channel, email, or in-app messenger.
