AWS WAF

Version	2.43.0 (View all)
Compatible Kibana version(s)	8.16.5 or higher 9.0.0 or higher
Supported Serverless project types What’s this?	Security Observability
Subscription level What’s this?	Basic

The AWS WAF integration allows you to monitor AWS Web Application Firewall (WAF)—a web application firewall for protecting against common web exploits.

Use the AWS WAF integration to collect and parse logs related to firewall activity across your AWS infrastructure. Then visualize that data in Kibana, create alerts to notify you if something goes wrong, and reference logs when troubleshooting an issue.

For example, you could use the data from this integration to spot unusual SQL injection and cross-site scripting attempts on your AWS-hosted websites and web applications, in a given time period. You could also use the data to review or troubleshoot the rules that have been set up to block these web exploits. You can do this by looking at additional context in the logs, such as the source of the requests, and more.

Extra AWS charges on API requests will be generated by this integration. Check API Requests for more details.

Data streams

edit

The AWS WAF integration collects one type of data: logs.

Logs help you keep a record of events happening in AWS WAF. Logs collected by the AWS WAF integration include information on the rule that terminated a request, the source of the request, and more. See more details in the Logs reference.

The waf data stream is specifically for WAF logs.

Requirements

edit

You need Elasticsearch for storing and searching your data and Kibana for visualizing and managing it. You can use our hosted Elasticsearch Service on Elastic Cloud, which is recommended, or self-manage the Elastic Stack on your own hardware.

Before using any AWS integration you will need:

AWS Credentials to connect with your AWS account.
AWS Permissions to make sure the user you’re using to connect has permission to share the relevant data.

For more details about these requirements, please take a look at the AWS integration documentation.

Setup

edit

Use this integration if you only need to collect data from the AWS WAF service.

If you want to collect data from two or more AWS services, consider using the AWS integration. When you configure the AWS integration, you can collect data from as many AWS services as you’d like.

For step-by-step instructions on how to set up an integration, see the Getting started guide.

Advanced options

edit

CloudWatch

edit

The CloudWatch logs input has several advanced options to fit specific use cases.

Latency

edit

AWS CloudWatch Logs sometimes takes extra time to make the latest logs available to clients like the Agent.

The CloudWatch integration offers the latency setting to address this scenario. Latency translates the query’s time range to consider the CloudWatch Logs latency. For example, a 5m latency means the integration will query CloudWatch for logs available 5 minutes ago.

Number of workers

edit

If you are collecting log events from multiple log groups using log_group_name_prefix, you should review the value of the number_of_workers.

The number_of_workers setting defines the number of workers assigned to reading from log groups. Each log group matching the log_group_name_prefix requires a worker to keep log ingestion as close to real-time as possible. For example, if log_group_name_prefix matches five log groups, then number_of_workers should be set to 5. The default value is 1.

Logs reference

edit

The waf dataset is specifically for WAF logs. Export logs from Kinesis Data Firehose to Amazon S3 bucket which has SQS notification setup already.
