Details:

The document provides information about an Application Logging Demo VM available for Security Operation groups through the iRock platform, which is associated with HP ArcSight and App Defender. This tool aims to offer application log visibility, security event analysis, and correlation to respond to threats and reduce risks by utilizing ArcSight ESM. Key points include: 1. The latest release of Application Defender 17.1 includes specific ESM content for Application Logging and Protection. 2. A replay ArcSight agent is included in the VM to populate App Logging dashboards with pre-configured data, which should cover most dashboards and active channels, triggering alerts as well. 3. To simulate live attacks within the ArcSight ESM and App Defender Server, you can use Riches App/Vulnerable App; however, installation of the App Defender agent and assignment to a Risk group are optional (refer to Appendix A for further details). 4. The VM specifications include: OS - Centos 7.3, CPU - 4 cores, Memory - 6GB, Total Disk Space - 80GB, configured with DHCP NAT'd network settings.
