SIEM

Event Streaming Details

Once a SIEM integration (for example, Microsoft Sentinel, Splunk, Sumo Logic or Webhook) is configured in the ARMO Platform, the following events are automatically streamed in real time.

This integration provides full observability, audit trail, and incident correlation across your runtime, compliance, and policy changes, helping SOC and SecOps teams respond faster and with context.

SIEM Streaming Trigger Events

The ARMO Platform streams events whenever key system, policy, or runtime actions occur.

Incident Lifecycle Events

Event	Description
Incident Created	A new runtime incident is detected and opened.
Incident Updated	The incident status or details are updated (for example, status change or new alert added).

Policy & Rule Changes

Event	Description
Runtime Policy Created	A new threat detection policy is created.
Runtime Policy Updated	An existing policy is modified (for example, rule conditions, scope, criteria, or response).
Runtime Policy Deleted	A threat detection policy is deleted.

Response Action Events

Event	Description
Response Action Triggered	A response (for example, container kill, pause, network policy, or seccomp profile) is executed.

Risk Acceptance Events

Event	Description
Risk Acceptance Created	A new risk acceptance rule is defined to suppress specific incidents.
Risk Acceptance Updated	An existing risk acceptance is modified (for example, scope, justification, or expiration date).
Risk Acceptance Deleted	A risk acceptance rule is removed.
