About ThreatSync+ Cloud Integration — AWS VPC Flow Logs

Applies To: ThreatSync+ NDR

This feature is only available with a ThreatSync+ NDR or Total NDR license. For more information, go to About ThreatSync+ NDR Licenses and About Total NDR Licenses.

ThreatSync+ NDR enables you to monitor logs from third-party cloud environments, such as AWS VPC Flow Logs.

Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) flow logs capture detailed information about the IP traffic that goes to and from network interfaces in your VPC. This data is crucial for network monitoring, security analysis, troubleshooting, and compliance auditing.

These logs include source and destination IP addresses, ports, protocol, traffic acceptance and rejection, and bytes and packets transferred. ThreatSync+ NDR uses AWS VPC flow logs for traffic analysis, to detect suspicious traffic patterns, and to identify potential intrusions, malware activity, or data exfiltration.
