Trellix Endpoint Security (HX)

This document applies to Classic/Legacy Integrations. You may continue to use these integration configurations. While no active development is happening for these integrations, we continue to provide Classic/Legacy Integrations in the product. You do not have to move to MSI Integrations. If your support engineer or TSC recommends or you choose to move to MSI Integrations, you can take advantage of the latest features and functionality. For more information, see the MSI Integration documentation in the Integrations Overview.

This integration is remote capable.

Update Trellix Endpoint Security (HX)

Create a Trellix Endpoint Security (HX) API Account for use with the Validation Platform. This must use the API_Analyst role.

API Calls

The following API calls are used by the Validation Platform.

PurposeCall
Login for a token/hx/api/v3/token
Alerts query/hx/api/v3/alerts/?agent._id=(DeviceId)&limit=(PageLimit)&offset=(PageOffset)&filterQuery=(ReportedAtTimestampFilterQuery)
Hosts Query/hx/api/v3/hosts

Update the Validation Platform

Prerequisites

Information to gather before you start:

  1. Identify the Trellix Endpoint Security (HX) Host and Port information.
  2. Have a Trellix Endpoint Security (HX) API User Account with the API_Analyst role.

Configuration

To add the Trellix Endpoint Security (HX) integration

  1. Go to Settings > Integrations.
  2. Click Add Integration > Trellix Endpoint Security (HX).

    You can add this as either a Local or Remote Integration.

  3. Enter information for the Host, Port, Username, and Password.

    Port 3000 is required for on-prem HX appliances
  4. Expand Advanced options and update the information if necessary.

  5. (Optional) Update Query time and Delay time.

    The Query time is the amount of time (minutes) before and after the query runs that the looks for events, while the Delay time is the amount of time (minutes) that the platform waits to run the query after a Job Action. For example, you configure your integration with the following values: Query time = 5, Query Interval = 30 seconds, and Delay time = 0. When a Job Actions starts at 12:00:00, the first time the query runs, the platform looks for events from 11:55:00 to 12:00:00. Then 30 seconds later, it looks for events from 11:55:30 to 12:00:30. This interval continues, with the last query looking from 12:00:00 to 12:05:00. If you instead configured the Delay time to equal 10, it would run the same query, but it wouldn't start that query until 12:10:00.
    If your monitors are set to run more frequently than the query time, it will impact the pass/fail results for AEDA monitors.
  6. (Optional) Select Discover network devices automatically.
  7. Modify the Query Interval and Event Time Adjustment, if necessary.

  8. (Optional) Assign a Name.

  9. (Optional) Choose Yes to save suspicious events.

  10. Click Submit.

Set up Proxy Assignment

If all outbound connections go through a proxy, you may want to set up a proxy definition and assignment for your integration. For information on setting up your proxy rules, see Proxy Rules.

Verify Connectivity

To verify connectivity to Trellix Endpoint Security (HX)

Click Test to verify that:

  • The Director can communicate with the Trellix Endpoint Security (HX) console using the provided host and user information.
  • The Webservice API is enabled and allowing communication.

If the test is not successful, messages will be displayed to help identify possible issues, such as no connection to the API server.
