Quick start

Want to test as quickly as possible? Follow the below quick start steps to begin looking at your Sophos Central data!

Install latest version of Python 3
Create a folder e.g "sophos_test"
Open a command prompt/terminal
Create a Python Virtual Environment:
```
python -m venv <folder_name>
```
Activate the Python Virtual Environment:
```
<path_to_folder>\Scripts\activate
```
Install the Sophos Central API Connector (this will also install the requirements):
```
pip install sophos-central-api-connector
```

Once it has finished installing browse to:

cd <path_to_folder>\Lib\site-packages\sophos_central_api_connector

Run the following command to view help to begin:
```
python sophos_central_main.py --help
```
Add your Sophos Central API id and secret to the sophos_config.ini under the folder: \Lib\site-packages\sophos_central_api_connector\config

Important!

We would recommend that the static entry is only used for testing purposes and the token is stored and accessed securely. Please reference the authentication section

Prerequisites

In order to use the package you will require a valid API key from your Sophos Central tenant. To obtain a valid API key please reference the documentation here

Install

pip install --user sophos_central_api_connector

Authentication

There are two options for authentication, the setting used here will be used for all areas of authentication. As mentioned under the configuration section we recommend using the AWS Secrets Manager for storing these credentials. Only use the static credentials for testing purposes.

Static Credentials

To specify using the static credentials which are in the *config.ini files you can use the following: python3 sophos_central_main.py --auth static

AWS Secrets Manager

To specify using the AWS settings which are in the *config.ini files to retrieve the secrets and token you can use the following: python3 sophos_central_main.py --auth aws

Basic Examples

Help

To get information on the CLI commands when using the sophos_central_main.py run:

python sophos_central_main.py --help

Tenants List

To get a list of tenants:

python sophos_central_main.py --auth <auth_option> --get tenants

Inventory

To get inventory data:

python sophos_central_main.py --auth <auth_option> --get inventory --output <output_option>

Alerts/Event Information

To get alert data:

python sophos_central_main.py --auth <auth_option> --get alerts --days <integer: 1-90> --output <output_option>

Local Site

To get a list of local site data:

python sophos_central_main.py --auth <auth_option> --get local-sites --output <output_option>

Output Options

There are four output options available for the inventory, simply add one of the following after --output:

stdout: Print the information to the console.
json: Save the output of the request to a json file
splunk: This will send the data to Splunk with no changes made. This will apply the settings made in the transform files.
splunk_trans: Using this output will apply the information set in the splunk_config.ini for the host, source and sourcetype. This will overrun the settings in the transform files in Splunk but not the Index that the data should be sent to.

Troubleshooting

All logging is done via the python logging library. Valid logging levels are:

INFO
DEBUG
CRITICAL
WARNING
ERROR

For basic feedback set the logging level to INFO
