Trellix

Overview

Configuring a cloud source in Scope is a two-step process.

  • Generating Trellix API credentials in the Trellix Console. Please refer to Section 1 – Trellix Setup

  • Setting up the Trellix cloud source in the Scope application. Please refer to Section 2 – Scope Setup

Trellix Setup

To get started, you’ll need to generate the following credentials in the Trellix ePO Console or Trellix Developer Portal –

  1. Client ID
  2. Client Secret
  3. API Key

Step 1: Obtain the Client ID, Client Secret and API Key

  • Log into the Trellix Developer Portal.

  • Navigate to the Self Service tab.

  • Under API Access Management, click Configure.

  • In the API Access Management screen:

    • Copy the generated API Key.

    • Enter a user-defined name in the Client Type field.

    • Select the Events API.

    • Click Select All under the method types to enable ingestion of threat events.

    • Click Request.

      Note: Client types and scopes are governed by Trellix and may take a few days for review and approval. Trellix may contact the customer for additional details before approving the client type and scope.

  • Once the Client Type and Scope are approved, generate the Client ID and Client Secret.

The API Key, Client ID and Client Secret are to be configured in Scope Setup: Step 1 for initiating the Trellix log ingestion.
