SIEM Toolkit — SentinelOne AI-SIEM

Inspired by Pineapple Boy! 🍍

A self-hosted troubleshooting and visibility tool for SentinelOne AI-SIEM SecOps engineers. Runs as a Docker Compose stack against your SentinelOne demo or production tenant and provides real-time insight into parser coverage, ingest volume, and data quality — all without leaving a single interface.


What's Inside

Page Purpose
Parser Coverage Map Which active data sources have a parser? Which don't?
Ingest Dashboard Event volume, top sources, cost projection, filter simulator
Parser Quality Live event sampler, field population rate, parser test runner
Onboarding Accelerator Prompt template for onboarding new log sources with Claude Code
Settings Manage your .env credentials directly from the interface

Architecture

browser → nginx (port 3001) → single-page HTML/JS application
                ↓ API calls
          FastAPI backend (port 8001)
                ↓
    ┌───────────────────────────┐
    │  PostgreSQL (SQLAlchemy)  │  parsed rules, parser fields, active sources
    └───────────────────────────┘
                ↓
    ┌───────────────────────────┐
    │  SentinelOne APIs         │
    │  • Management API (STAR)  │  demo.sentinelone.net
    │  • Scalyr XDR PowerQuery  │  xdr.us1.sentinelone.net
    └───────────────────────────┘

All services run via Docker Compose. The parsers/ directory is volume-mounted into the backend so SDL parser files may be loaded without rebuilding the image.


Setup

1. Clone and Configure

git clone https://github.com/mickbrowns1/SIEM-Toolkit.git
cd SIEM-Toolkit
cp .env.example .env

Edit .env with your credentials:

S1_BASE_URL=https://demo.sentinelone.net       # Your console URL
S1_API_TOKEN=eyJ...                             # Service user API token
SDL_XDR_URL=https://xdr.us1.sentinelone.net    # Scalyr XDR endpoint
SDL_LOG_READ_KEY=1j2IU0S...                     # Data Lake read key
ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=                              # Optional — Onboarding page only

S1_API_TOKEN — generate at Settings → Users → Service Users in the console.
SDL_LOG_READ_KEY — found at Settings → Integrations → Data Lake API Keys.

Place your SDL parser JSON files into the parsers/ directory. The backend reads them directly at query time — no rebuild is necessary.

cp ~/my-parsers/*.json parsers/

3. Start the Stack

docker-compose up -d --build

Open http://localhost:3001 in your browser and you're off.


Features

Parser Coverage Map

Answers the question: does each active data source have a parser running?

How it works:

  1. Sync Live Sources — executes a PowerQuery against your data lake to retrieve every dataSource.name seen in the last 7 days, along with event counts.
  2. Load SDL Parsers — reads parser files from parsers/, extracts the dataSource.name attribute from each, and stores the field list in the database.
  3. Load STAR Rules — retrieves your STAR detection rules from the management API and indexes which data sources each rule references.

Matching logic (three-tier):

  1. Exact dataSource.name match between the active source and the parser attribute
  2. Normalised substring match (ignores spaces, dashes, and case) between the active source name and the parser's dataSource.name
  3. Normalised substring match against the parser filename — catches files where the dataSource.name attribute is incorrect or missing

Parser detection from data: During sync, a parallel PowerQuery checks whether each source has events with event.type populated in the data lake. If so, a parser is confirmed as running — the source is marked Covered even without a local parser file. This handles built-in and cloud-managed parsers that are not present in your parsers/ folder.

Status values:

  • 🟢 Covered — custom parser confirmed (local file or detected via parsed events in the data lake)
  • 🔴 Parser Needed — no parser found, or only a grok/dottedJson format (which typically indicates an incomplete parser)

Expected results: After syncing sources and loading parsers, sources with active SDL parsers will appear as Covered. Sources sending raw, unparsed data — where only message and timestamp appear in the data lake — will appear as Parser Needed.


Ingest Dashboard

Answers the question: where is my event volume coming from, and what would happen if I filtered some of it?

Time range: 1h (default), 3d, 5d, 7d

Daily Event Volume — bar chart of total events per day. In 1h mode, this switches to a by-source breakdown of the current hour's activity.

Top Sources — a table of the 25 highest-volume dataSource.name values with event count and estimated GB (calculated at 0.5 GB per million events).

Filter Simulator — enter a source name and an optional event type, then press Simulate. The backend runs a live PowerQuery counting matching events and projects:

  • Matched events in the selected period
  • Estimated GB that would be saved
  • Projected monthly events and GB if the filter were applied permanently

This is entirely read-only — no filter is created or applied. Use the results to inform an exclusion rule you apply manually in the console.

Expected results: Top sources should reflect what you see in the SentinelOne console PowerQuery tool. The filter simulator provides a reasonable GB estimate assuming uniform event size across the source.


Parser Quality

Three tools for diagnosing parser extraction failures.

Live Event Sampler

Pulls raw events from a selected source directly from the data lake and renders every field that came back. The message column is pinned to the right of the table, with a ⎘ copy button on each row for convenient extraction of raw log lines.

  • Empty fields are displayed as in grey — immediately highlighting fields the parser is failing to populate
  • Healthy source: many fields populated (src.ip, user.name, event.type, etc.), with message present as the raw log backup
  • Unhealthy source: only timestamp and message populated — the parser is not extracting anything of value

Field Population Rate

Samples up to 500 events from a source and measures what percentage of them have each field populated. Results are sorted worst-first so the most pressing gaps are immediately visible.

When you select a source, the tool automatically discovers which fields exist in that source's events and pre-fills the field list — merged with SDL schema defaults. The list is fully editable before running the analysis.

Colour coding:

  • 🟢 ≥ 80% — healthy extraction
  • 🟡 4079% — partial extraction; check your regex patterns
  • 🔴 < 40% — field is rarely populated; the parser is likely not matching this log format variant

Healthy parser: Key fields such as src.ip, event.type, and user.name should sit between 70100%. Niche fields like src.process.cmdline or tgt.file.path will naturally be lower, as not every event type produces them.

Broken parser: All SDL fields at 0%, with only timestamp and message visible in the "fields seen in sample" chip list at the bottom of the results.

Parser Test Runner

Paste a raw log line, select a loaded parser, and press Test. The backend extracts SDL $field=pattern$ format strings from the parser file, converts them to Python named-group regular expressions, and tries each against your log line.

  • Matched: displays the format string that matched and every field extracted with its value
  • No match: none of the parser's format strings apply to this log line — the log may contain a format variant the parser does not yet cover

Note: Only parsers using SDL custom format strings are supported by the test runner. Grok and dottedJson parsers are not currently testable here.


Onboarding Accelerator

A prompt template for using Claude Code to onboard a new log source. Copy the template, paste a sample of raw log lines, and Claude Code will generate:

  • An SDL parser skeleton in augmented-JSON format
  • Field mappings to the SDL common schema
  • 23 starter STAR detection rules
  • 5 parser test assertions

No Anthropic API key is required — this uses Claude Code directly from your terminal.


Settings

Read and write your .env credentials from the interface. Secret fields (API tokens, keys) are masked by default with a show/hide toggle. Changes are written to the mounted .env file and take effect after restarting the backend:

docker-compose up -d --build backend

Rebuilding

# Full rebuild
docker-compose up -d --build

# Backend only (after Python changes)
docker-compose up -d --build backend

# Frontend only (after HTML/JS changes)
docker-compose up -d --build frontend

# Reset the database
curl -X DELETE http://localhost:8001/api/coverage/reset

Notes

  • The backend queries your demo tenant (demo.sentinelone.net) — not usea1-purple or any other tenant. Ensure your S1_BASE_URL and SDL_LOG_READ_KEY are pointed at the same tenant.
  • Parser files in parsers/ are read at query time, not on startup — add or update files at any point without rebuilding the image.
  • The filter simulator is entirely read-only and makes no changes whatsoever to your tenant configuration.
