Nitro SIEM Integration with Guardium showing unwanted system alerts

Troubleshooting


Problem

Unwanted system alerts are showing up when Guardium is using the syslog to integrate with a Nitro SIEM system. The intention is for only Guardium database incidents and policy rule matches to be sent.

Symptom

You are getting Guardium system alerts (e.g. cron job alerts) as well as actual events that match Guardium policy (e.g. failed authentication attempts).
