Druva is a cloud data protection and management platform that helps organizations safeguard their data across endpoints, cloud applications, and data center workloads. You can use a webhook in Druva to forward platform events to the Sumo Logic HTTP endpoint. Using these logs, you can monitor cybersecurity threats, backup and restore operations, authentication and admin activities, ransomware recovery, data access, enterprise workloads, and API credential usage in Sumo Logic.

For more details, see the [Druva Webhook documentation](https://help.druva.com/en/articles/11180020-use-webhooks-to-integrate-third-party-services-with-druva).

## Event types

The Sumo Logic app for Druva Platform Events ingests security and operational events into Sumo Logic through a webhook integration in the Druva Integration Center.

The following event types are used in the Druva Platform Events app:
- Admin and platform access events
- API credential lifecycle events
- Backup and restore events
- Enterprise workload events
- Cybersecurity events (unusual data activity, malicious file scans, curated snapshots)
- Ransomware recovery events
- Data access events
- Alert and notification events

### Sample log messages

```json
{
  "feature": "Admin Event",
  "type": "Admin Login",
  "details": {
    "adminEmail": "admin@example.com",
    "adminName": "Jane Doe",

```

### Sample queries

```sumo title="Total Events by Feature"
_sourceCategory="Labs/Druva" feature type
| json "feature", "type", "syslogSeverity" as feature, event_type, severity nodrop
| count by feature
| sort by _count
```

## Setup

This section includes instructions for collecting logs for the Sumo Logic Druva Platform Events webhook collection.

### Source configuration

Follow the steps below to configure the Hosted Collector to receive Druva events.

1. In the Sumo Logic portal, create a new [Hosted Collector](/docs/send-data/hosted-collectors/configure-hosted-collector/) or use an existing one.
2. Add an [HTTP Logs and Metrics Source](/docs/send-data/hosted-collectors/http-source/logs-metrics/#configure-an-httplogs-and-metrics-source).
3. Configure **Source Category** in the HTTP Source, for example, `webhook/druva`.
4. Copy and save the endpoint URL of the source.

### Vendor configuration

Configure the webhook integration in Druva to send events to the Sumo Logic HTTP source.

Follow the steps below to configure the Druva webhook.

1. Sign in to the [Druva Console](https://login.druva.com/).
2. From the **Global Navigation** menu on the top left, select **Integration Center**.
3. On the Integration Center page, select **Webhooks** from the left panel.
4. Click **Add New Webhook**. The Add Webhook form appears.
5. Provide the following details:
   - **Provider**. Select **Others**.
   - **Name**. Enter a name for the webhook (for example, `Sumo Logic`).
   - **Endpoint**. Enter the Sumo Logic HTTP endpoint URL (source address) created above.
   - **Authorization Type**. Select **API Key** and enter a dummy value with more than 5 characters (for example, `sumologic`), as Sumo Logic does not require authentication on the HTTP source endpoint.
   - **Events**. Select the events that the platform should send to the webhook. Choose the event types you want to monitor, such as cybersecurity events, backup jobs, admin events, and alerts.
6. Click **Test and Save** to validate the connection and save your configuration.
7. Verify Druva events are getting ingested in Sumo Logic by executing the following query in Log Search:

```sql
_sourceCategory=Labs/Druva
```
