Architecture and Data Flow

The app supports deployment on single-instance and distributed Splunk environments. Based on your deployment scale and the volume of incoming data, you can run the app on a standalone search head or distribute it across a Splunk search head cluster.

Cisco security products send events to Splunk through APIs or syslog. The app collects these events using modular inputs, each sending data to a specific index. The built-in health checks ensure inputs work properly, and dashboards display the data for detection, correlation, and investigation.
