Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: Users of zSecure Audit exploiting the * * software to prepare data for ArcSight SIEM. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The zSecure Audit ArcSight SIEM * * interface generates CEF files that * * contain non-integer process ID values * * for the 'dvcpid' key so that these * * values cannot be processed by the * * ArcSight receiver. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the PTF provided. * **************************************************************** The job IDs generated by the zSecure Audit ArcSight SIEM interface are represented by non-integer values under the 'dvcpid' keys in a CEF file so that the corresponding CEF records cannot be processed by the ArcSight event receiver.
Problem conclusion
zSecure Admin/Audit has been modified so that the job IDs are written to a CEF file using the 'externalId' key so that the ArcSight event receiver processes the corresponding CEF records correctly.
