Configure AWS S3 Bucket

You must configure the S3 bucket details before you can configure the SIEM integration in EPM. In AWS, set up the bucket and access to the bucket. This includes:

  • Create a bucket. When creating the bucket be sure to note the bucket name and region. You need to enter the information when configuring the settings in EPM.
  • Create an access policy. When creating the access policy, the permissions required for the integration include: PutObject, ListAllMyBuckets, GetBucketAcl, and GetBucketLocation.
  • Add a user. When attaching a user to a policy, be sure to select Programmatic access as the access type and Attach existing policies directly as the permission type. Copy the Access ID and secret access key to a file; you need to enter the details when configuring the settings in EPM.
