So I got MHN forwarding events to splunk and it show attack count but no data for Cowrie is showing in dashboard. Would I be correct in assuming mhn splunk doesn't support cowrie? If not can it be added or is best to ditch cowrie in favor of kippo?  Thanks

That is correct but the changes needed to support cowrie are likely very small.  Changing this file is likely all that is needed


The "type=kippo.sessions" needs to be "(type=kippo.sessions OR type=cowrie.sessions)"

You can do these changes in your local instance of splunk if you simply customize the views. 

Ultimately Anomali will need to make these changes since they own this splunk app.

I've tokenised the Cowrie dashboard here (allowing you to switch between Cowrie / Kippo / all data):


I haven't tested so can't guarantee this will work perfectly.

p.s You can add this XML to the dashboard by navigating to the Cowrie dashboard page > selecting edit > edit source / xml > paste in code.

(The original XML is still on Github if my code is broken - via the link Jason posted)
