CrowdStrike Falcon Next-Gen SIEM

This SIEM connector is currently available by request. Reach out to support to have it enabled for your workspace.

Send your Aikido issues to CrowdStrike Falcon Next-Gen SIEM, so your security findings are searchable alongside the rest of your logs.

This is useful if your team already uses CrowdStrike as a SIEM and wants a single place to correlate Aikido findings with infrastructure, application, and audit signals.

Requirements

Before connecting, you need:

• An active CrowdStrike Falcon subscription with Next-Gen SIEM access.
• A Next-Gen SIEM endpoint URL and auth token, generated from a Monad connector set up inside CrowdStrike (see below).

Connecting CrowdStrike

1

Set up the Monad connector in CrowdStrike

1. Log in to your CrowdStrike console, open the main menu, and go to Next-Gen SIEM > Data onboarding.
2. Find the Monad connector on the Data Sources page and click Configure.
3. Fill in the connector details:

   • Data Source - select your specific data source type.
   • Data Type - select JSON (recommended for best compatibility).
   • Connector name - a descriptive name (for example, "Aikido").
   • Description - optional.
4. Under Parser details, select an existing parser or create a new one that matches the data format Aikido sends.
5. Accept the terms and click Save.
6. Once the connector finishes initializing, look for the Generate API key option in the banner and click it.
7. Copy and securely store both the generated API key and the API URL, you'll paste these into Aikido next.

Connect a SIEM

Go to Settings > Integrations in the Aikido app and add a new SIEM integration. In the Connect a SIEM dialog, select CrowdStrike Falcon Next-Gen SIEM and fill in:

Settings

• Next-Gen SIEM endpoint - the CrowdStrike Monad connector ingestion URL, in the format https://<connection-id>.ingest.<your-region>.crowdstrike.com/services/collector.

Authentication

• Next-Gen SIEM auth token - the CrowdStrike Monad connector API token you generated.

Click Test connection to confirm Aikido can reach CrowdStrike, then Save changes.

Configure which issues sync

On the CrowdStrike integration page, under Issue input settings, configure which Aikido issues are synced:

• Issue status - for example, sync open issues only, or include resolved and ignored issues too.
• Minimum severity - the lowest severity level to sync.
• Issue type - limit to specific issue types, or sync all of them.
• Language - limit to specific languages, or sync all of them.
• Sync frequency - how often Aikido pushes matching issues to CrowdStrike (for example, every hour).

Click Save Settings.

Verifying events are arriving

In CrowdStrike's Next-Gen SIEM, search for events from your configured data source. Wait for your configured sync frequency to pass, or trigger a test issue in Aikido, and confirm it shows up.

Limitations

• Maximum 100 events, or 16 MB, per batch.
• Events older than 7 days may be rejected by CrowdStrike.
• API rate limits apply based on your CrowdStrike subscription.

Troubleshooting

• Authentication failures - confirm the auth token hasn't expired and has the right permissions, and double check the endpoint URL.
• Connection timeouts - check network connectivity and any firewall rules between Aikido and CrowdStrike, and validate proxy settings if you use one.
• Data rejected - confirm your CrowdStrike parser matches the data format Aikido sends, and that events aren't exceeding the batch or size limits above.

Managing the integration

From Settings > Integrations > CrowdStrike Falcon Next-Gen SIEM in Aikido, you can:

• Manage Integration - update the endpoint or auth token.
• Remove Integration - disconnect CrowdStrike. This stops all future syncs; it doesn't delete data already sent to CrowdStrike.
