Amazon AWS S3 REST API log source parameters for Amazon AWS Route 53 when using an SQS queue

If you want to collect AWS Route 53 Resolver query logs from multiple accounts or regions in an Amazon S3 bucket, add an Amazon AWS Route 53 log source on the QRadar Console by using the Amazon AWS S3 REST API protocol and a Simple Queue Service (SQS) queue.
The following table describes the parameters for an Amazon AWS Route 53 log source that uses the Amazon AWS S3 REST API protocol:
Table 1. Amazon AWS S3 REST API log source parameters for the Amazon AWS Route 53 DSM
Parameter Value
Log Source type Amazon AWS Route 53
Protocol Configuration Amazon AWS S3 REST API
Log Source Identifier

Type a unique name for the log source.

The Log Source Identifier can be any valid value and does not need to reference a specific server. The Log Source Identifier can be the same value as the Log Source Name. If you have more than one Amazon AWS Route 53 log source that is configured, you might want to identify the first log source as awsroute53-1, the second log source as awsroute53-2, and the third log source as awsroute53-3.
Authentication Method
Access Key ID / Secret Key
Standard authentication that can be used from anywhere.
For more information about configuring security credentials, see Configuring security credentials for your AWS user account.
Assume IAM Role
Authenticate with keys and then temporarily assume a role for access. This option is available only when you use the SQS Event Notifications collection method.
For more information about creating IAM users and assigning roles, see Creating an Identity and Access Management (IAM) user in the AWS Management Console.
Access Key ID

If you selected Access Key ID / Secret Key for the Authentication Method, the Access Key ID parameter is displayed.

The Access Key ID that was generated when you configured the security credentials for your AWS user account. This value is also the Access Key ID that is used to access the AWS S3 bucket.
Secret Key ID

If you selected Access Key ID / Secret Key for the Authentication Method, the Secret Key ID parameter is displayed.

The Secret Key that was generated when you configured the security credentials for your AWS user account. This value is also the Decret Key ID that is used to access the AWS S3 bucket.
Event Format Select LINEBYLINE. The log source collects JSON formatted events.
S3 Collection Method Select SQS Event Notifications.
SQS Queue URL Enter the full URL, starting with https://, of the SQS queue that is set up to receive notifications for ObjectCreate events from S3.
Region Name The region that the SQS Queue or the S3 Bucket is in.

Example: us-east-1, eu-west-1, ap-northeast-3
Use as a Gateway Log Source Select this option for the collected events to flow through the QRadar traffic analysis engine and for QRadar to automatically detect one or more log sources.
Log Source Identifier Pattern

This option is available when Use as a Gateway Log Source is set to yes.

Use this option if you want to define a custom Log Source Identifier for events being processed. This field accepts key value pairs to define the custom Log Source Identifier, where the key is the Identifier Format String, and the value is the associated regex pattern. You can define multiple key value pairs by entering a pattern on a new line. When multiple patterns are used, they are evaluated in order until a match is found and a custom Log Source Identifier can be returned.
Show Advanced Options Select this option if you want to customize the event data.
File Pattern

This option is available when you set Show Advanced Options to Yes.

Type a regex for the file pattern that matches the files that you want to pull; for example, .*?\.json\.gz
Local Directory

This option is available when you set Show Advanced Options to Yes.

The local directory on the Target Event Collector. The directory must exist before the AWS S3 REST API PROTOCOL attempts to retrieve events.
S3 Endpoint URL

This option is available when you set Show Advanced Options to Yes.

The endpoint URL that is used to query the AWS REST API.

If your endpoint URL is different from the default, type your endpoint URL. The default is http:/s3.amazonaws.com
Use S3 Path-Style Access

Forces S3 requests to use path-style access.

This method is deprecated by AWS. However, it might be required when you use other S3 compatible APIs. For example, the https://s3.region.amazonaws.com/bucket-name/key- name path-style is automatically used when a bucket name contains a period (.). Therefore, this option is not required, but can be used.
Use Proxy

If QRadar accesses the Amazon Web Service by using a proxy, enable Use Proxy.

If the proxy requires authentication, configure the Proxy Server, Proxy Port, Proxy Username, and Proxy Password fields.

If the proxy does not require authentication, configure the Proxy IP or Hostname field.
Recurrence

How often a poll is made to scan for new data.

When using the SQS event collection method, SQS Event Notifications can have a minimum value of 10 (seconds). Because SQS Queue polling can occur more often, a lower value can be used.

Type a time interval to determine how frequently the poll is made for new data. The time interval can include values in hours (H), minutes (M), or days (D). For example, 2H = 2 hours, 15M = 15 minutes, 30 = seconds.
EPS Throttle

The maximum number of events per second that QRadar ingests.

If your data source exceeds the EPS throttle, data collection is delayed. Data is still collected and then it is ingested when the data source stops exceeding the EPS throttle.

The default is 5000.
