Log Management & SIEM Forwarding

Syslog (RFC 5424 / CEF / LEEF)

RFC 5424 · TCP/TLS · CEF

Forward Moftgate endpoint, DLP, and DSPM events to your existing log infrastructure in standard Syslog (RFC 5424 / RFC 3164), CEF, or LEEF format. No middleware required — your log server stays exactly where it is.

Key Capabilities

What You Can Achieve with Moftgate + Syslog (RFC 5424 / CEF / LEEF)

Frictionless data exchange, automated incident response, and continuous posture sync.

01

Standards-Based Transport

RFC 5424 structured data fields carry hostname, user, policy ID, and severity as discrete attributes — your SIEM team writes fewer parsing regexes and gets cleaner correlation.

02

Encrypted Transport with TLS

TLS 1.3 over TCP 6514 with certificate validation and automatic reconnect on failure, so events are not silently dropped during network interruptions.

03

Queueing & Backpressure Control

If the destination slows down, events buffer in an on-disk queue and drain in order once the collector recovers — no network saturation.

Data Flow & Architecture

Zero-Trust Architecture & Secure Tunneling

A forwarder service inside the Moftgate appliance normalizes events into CEF or LEEF records and writes them to your destination over an encrypted tunnel. Traffic never leaves your own network.

How to Connect Syslog (RFC 5424 / CEF / LEEF) in 3 Simple Steps

No custom development required. Ready-to-use native connector.

1. Define the Destination

In the panel, open Integrations → Log Forwarding and enter the destination IP, port, and transport (TCP/TLS or UDP).

2. Map Format and Severity

Choose CEF, LEEF, or RFC 5424 and map severity levels for DLP violations, patch gaps, and session events.

3. Test the Connection

Send a test message, verify parsing on the collector, then add category filters to reduce noise.

Operational Scenarios

Real-World Production Use Cases

Preserve Your Existing SOC Stack

Add Moftgate telemetry to the dashboards and correlation rules you already operate — without replacing the stack.

Regulatory Log Retention

Keep the audit trail required by regulations in your own immutable log archive.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions About Syslog (RFC 5424 / CEF / LEEF)

Does log data pass through a third-party cloud?

No. Events are written directly to a destination inside your network. Moftgate only acts as the sender and keeps no copy in a public cloud.

Are events lost if the collector is unreachable?

No. Events are buffered in an on-disk queue and forwarded in order once connectivity returns.
