Before you run the integration on your instance, complete the installation and
configuration steps so the application properly integrates with Security Operations on the ServiceNow AI Platform®.

## Before you begin

Role required: admin  
Complete the following setup checklist prior to installation. These setup tasks are required for a smooth installation and configuration. The latest LogRhythm version is 7.8 or later.  
Note:  
Your existing alarm profiles will no longer be supported on the latest LogRhythm version, so you need to create new alarm profiles and perform the required configurations.
{#install-and-config-logrhythm__table_xxz_jyj_4cb__entry__2}

| Setup task | Description |
|-|-|
| Verify that you have assigned the required ServiceNow AI Platform® and Security Incident Response (SIR) roles. | The following roles are required for installation, configuration, and verification of expected results: * The system administrator (admin) installs the application plugin and assigns the security incident administrator (sn_si.admin) role. * The (sn_si.admin) oversees the following tasks: * Names, creates, and edits alarm profiles. * Maps and filters alarms -- identifies specific LogRhythm alarms that create security incidents and configures how these alarm fields map to a ServiceNow AI Platform® security incident. * Previews security incident details for accuracy prior to finalizing the configuration. * Ingests historical alarms and schedules pulled alarms. * Assigns the security incident analyst (sn_si.analyst) role. * This role also has access to the Security Operations module. {#install-and-config-logrhythm__ul_ntt_5fx_22b} * The security incident analyst (sn_si.analyst) responds to security incidents that are created based on the alarm profile settings. {#install-and-config-logrhythm__ul_wnc_15r_tcb} |
| Obtain a LogRhythm API user name and password and verify that you are using version LogRhythm 7.8 or later. | Visit the product website for information on API keys and to create an account: [LogRhythm Enterprise website](https://logrhythm.com/). The user accounts, credentials, and certificates must be configured properly prior to installing the application. The integration requires LogRhythm version 7.8 or later and the LogRhythm REST APIs. See [Set up the REST API](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/9X98bDy4WgqF25b8UZptBQ "You use the LogRhythm REST API key to gather additional event details for individual alarm fields. The API key provides details that are unavailable using the LogRhythm REST API."). |
| Verify that you have installed and configured a MID Server. | A MID Server is required in your ServiceNow AI Platform environment. See the [ServiceNow Product Documentation website](https://www.servicenow.com/docs) for information about how to set up and configure MID Servers. |
| Verify that the ServiceNow core applications that are required to support the integration are installed and activated before you install the application for the integration. | For the Rome release and later family releases, the Security Incident Response Dependency plugin (com.snc.si_dep) is required. This plugin automatically installs all the dependencies that are required to support the Security Incident Response product. Install and activate this plugin before you install and activate the other Security Operations applications required by the integration. Verify that the following Security Operations applications are installed and activated from the ServiceNow Store. If not installed, install and activate one application at a time in the following order to ensure a smooth installation. 1. Security Incident Response 2. Security Integration Framework 3. Security Support Common 4. Security Support Orchestration {#install-and-config-logrhythm__ol_qwy_vrt_fhb} For more information on setting up your ServiceNow AI Platform instance for the integration, see [Get entitlement for a Security Operations product or application](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/ZZVMDPCDs~BwBGv0OAhjuA "The first step in installing a Security Operations application is to verify that the application or the product and its associated applications have valid ServiceNow entitlements.") and [Activate a ServiceNow Store application](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/RFo48XO5_M32aNft7_tP2A "After an application has been given entitlement, you must activate its dependencies plugin and activate the application. This process also applies to applications downloaded to sub-production instances."). |

{#install-and-config-logrhythm__table_xxz_jyj_4cb}  
Important:  
If you have any connectivity issues to the LogRhythm client console, refer to the [Verify connectivity for LogRhythm](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/6fE94IqMDNqR4HuhjdkOAQ "Verify your connection to the LogRhythm Client Console by sending curl requests to test the LogRhythm REST API. The verification process is optional.").

## Procedure

1. If you have not installed the application for the integration, see [Install a Security Operations integration](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/dIzJWROPdytPu1FmtvPx3w "All ServiceNow integrations are available on the ServiceNow Store. Core applications, such as Security Incident Response, are visible in the ServiceNow Products tab on the store. Integration add-ons are visible in the Certified Apps tab.") and follow the steps to install it.
2. Once the installation completes, navigate to IntegrationsIntegrations Configurations and locate the LogRhythm tile.
3. Click Configure.

   {#install-and-config-logrhythm__table_r5j_x2j_3tb__entry__2}

   | Field | Description |
   |-|-|
   | Name | LogRhythm server name, for example, <kbd class="ph userinput">logrhythm-server-a</kbd>. |
   | Base URL | Base URL hosting the LogRhythm REST API. The MID Server permits access to the network where the LogRhythm Client Console is hosted. This URL is where the LogRhythm server is hosted within that network. Click the lock icon on the right-end to edit the field and enter text for a URL, for example, <kbd class="ph userinput">https://logrhythm.secops-eng.com:8501/</kbd>. |

   After validation is successfully completed, a message is displayed and the LogRhythm Configurations page is reloaded. The next step is to create an alarm profile.

## What to do next

After you successfully complete the validation, the next step is to [Creating an alarm profile for LogRhythm](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/pTd45HTJsf27GVH~vFHJ~w "In an alarm profile that you create and name, you specify which alarms you want to pull from the LogRhythm Client Console. You also define how they are mapped to fields on a ServiceNow AI Platform security incident.").
