Connecting to Change Auditor

Most Change Auditor commands require a connection to a coordinator. You can make multiple connections to different coordinators or deployments in the same script as long as the version of Change Auditor is the same.

Example: Connect to the installation “XYZ” in the local forest
* 
NOTE: This allows for fault tolerance if you have numerous coordinators by selecting the best option in the domain.

Connect-CAClient –InstallationName ‘XYZ’ -DomainName 'DomainName.com'

 

 

Managing subscriptions

Managing subscriptions

To begin sending event data, you need to create a subscription with Change Auditor. The subscription contains information about the URL to send the notifications and heartbeats and the event subsystems to include.

* 
NOTE: You must be a member of the Change Auditor Administrators group to run these commands.
NOTE: These are generic commands not tied to a specific SIEM tool.

New-CAEventWebhookSubscription

Use this command to create the subscription required to receive Change Auditor event data.

Table 2. Available parameters

Parameter
Description

-Connection

A connection obtained by using the Connect-CAClient command. See the Change Auditor Command Guide for details.

-NotificationUrl

Specifies where to send notifications. The notification URL is provided by the webhook receiver.

-Subsystems

Specifies an array of event subsystems from which to send events. This can be single or multiple subsystems.

NOTE: To obtain an array of subsystems, use the Get-CAEventExportSubsystems command and filter the list to specify the required subsystems.

-StartTimeUTC (Optional)

Specifies date and time from which events should be sent. The default is to start sending events from the time when the subscription is created.

For example:

•
20 July, 2020 12:01 PM uses local time
•
2020-07-20 12:10:00Z uses UTC time

The time will be local unless you specify the required flag to convert to UTC.

NOTE: The time cannot be more than 30 days prior to the Change Auditor installation date.

-BatchSize (Optional)

Specifies the maximum number of events to include in a single notification. The default is 10000 events.

-Enabled (Optional)

Specifies whether the subscription is enabled or disabled. By default it is enabled.

-HeartbeatUrl (Optional)

Specifies where (URL) to send heartbeat notifications. The URL is provided by the webhook receiver.

NOTE: If no value is specified, heartbeat notifications are not sent.

-NotificationInterval (Optional)

Specifies how often (in milliseconds) notifications are sent to the receiver. By default, this is set to 0, resulting in a continuous stream of events.

-HeartbeatInterval (Optional)

Specifies how often (in milliseconds) heartbeat notifications are sent to webhook receiver. By default, this is set to every 5 minutes. Setting this to 0 disables the heartbeat notifications.

-AuthorizationId (Optional)

Specifies the unique identifier used to confirm that the specified subscriber is authorized to accept event data. The Id is provided by webhook receiver.

-AllowedCoordinators (Optional)

Specifies the DNS or NetBIOS name of the coordinators permitted to send events. By default, any coordinator can send the events.

NOTE: The list order does not determine which coordinator is selected to send events.

-IncludeO365AADDetails (Optional)

Specifies whether to include the raw JSON event details provided by Microsoft. When set to true, the event will include a field named additionalDetails, containing the raw JSON string for Office 365 and Azure Active Directory events. When set to false, the additionalDetails field is not included.

By default, this is set to true.

Example: Create a subscription that sends O365, Active Directory, and Exchange events captured since March 1 to www.quest.com

$startTimeUTC = Get-Date "March 1, 2020 12:00 PM"

$notificationUrl = "https://www.quest.com/api/webhook"

$selectedSubsystems = Get-CAEventExportSubsystems -Connection $connection | Where-Object DisplayName -In -Value "Office 365", "Active Directory", "Exchange"

New-CAEventWebhookSubscription -Connection $connection -NotificationUrl $notificationUrl -StartTimeUTC $startTimeUTC -Subsystems $selectedSubsystems

Get-CAEventWebhookSubscriptions

Use this command to see the details of the current subscriptions.

Table 1. Available parameters
Parameter
Description

-Connection

A connection obtained by using the Connect-CAClient command. See the Change Auditor Command Guide for details.
