Sending Kubernetes & Docker events to Elasticsearch and Splunk using Sysdig

In the blog post, the author discusses how to centralize Kubernetes and Docker events into logging systems like Elasticsearch and Splunk using Sysdig, emphasizing the importance of such integration for incident response and security analysis. The article outlines the use of WebHooks for sending Sysdig events to these platforms, detailing the configuration of notification channels and the necessary preprocessing steps for data compatibility. It highlights the need for WebHook authentication via custom headers, using Sysdig's API to modify notification channels, and emphasizes the significance of adapting time formats to align with the data engines' preferences. The blog further illustrates how to use Elasticsearch and Splunk to build dashboards for visualizing Sysdig Monitor and Sysdig Secure events, showcasing examples of dashboards that display alert severity, event distribution, and metadata segmentation. Finally, the author encourages readers to share their experiences and methods for event collection and visualization through social media and community platforms, while also noting the availability of Sysdig's API and Python libraries for advanced data manipulation.
