Absolutely - this is something I need to get round to. Concentrated on getting the data back and in a good state for a start. Figured I'd get round to securing stuff at a later point. > On the IPA side, I would think we would register the audit server as a host, and have specific service entires > for the protocols supported. > > Would you see IPA owning the audit server, or just integrating in with an existing one? I've built mine completely separately and then brought them closer together by running Logstash on the IPA server. Not sure if there should be an exclusive ownership going on. IPA could create an initial setup, but there's huge room for creating more complex systems that IPA might want to leave well alone. > I don't think the IPA server itself should be the ELK server for obvious reasons.

It gets more complicated to do it "properly", but what I've got going at the moment fits along the trivial lines, but provides an extremely robust database.
