QRadar: Creating offenses to monitor internal log sources

Troubleshooting


Problem

I would like to know how to create a rule for QRadar to generate offenses when my internal log sources stop sending events, such as SIM-Audit.

Symptom

This rule is intended to fire offenses every 30 minutes when QRadar does not detect an event from an internal log source for 1 hour. Internal log sources, especially SIM Audit is critical to QRadar as many administrators use SIM Audit data for reporting on QRadar user activity and meeting compliance requirements in corporate environments.
