Hi SO Gurus :)

Would want to know if I can build only SO sensors with bro and then let that talk to my other built ELK stack? Would yo please guide me how what changes I might need to achieve that on SO? On ELK I do have logstatsh running and configured to receive bro alters on port 2556.

What do I do on SO sensor? Also does SO by default come with critical-stack agent installed?

You can configure syslog-ng to forward Bro logs to your separate Elastic stack:

No, the Critical Stack agent is not open source and is therefore not
included in Security Onion.

Awesome!! Thank you. Let me try doing that.

And how do I load those SO dashboards in other ELK? Where are those kept? Or templates?

First, please note the following:

- our dashboards are designed for our pipeline config and our specific
software versions and may not work elsewhere

- we cannot provide any support whatsoever for running our dashboards elsewhere

That being said, you can find all of our Elastic config here:
