Proofpoint Targeted Attack Protection (TAP) Integration Guide๐Ÿ”—

The following instructions are for configuring Proofpoint Targeted Attack Protection (TAP) to facilitate log ingestion into Secureworksยฎ Taegisโ„ข XDR.

Proofpoint Requirements๐Ÿ”—

An active Proofpoint TAP account with privileges to create service credentials is required to integrate with XDR.

Note

Not all Proofpoint subscriptions include TAP.

Taegis IP Address Ranges๐Ÿ”—

If you have an existing firewall or API gateway IP allow list configured for this integration, or are planning to configure one, add the following XDR IP address ranges for your Taegis region.

Taegis Region IP Address Range
Charlie 216.9.204.0/24
Delta 216.9.204.0/24
Echo 216.9.205.0/24
Foxtrot 216.9.206.0/24

Juliet 208.89.41.0/24
Kilo 208.89.43.0/24
Quebec 208.89.44.0/24

Note

These would be the only IP ranges required for XDR integrations. If you previously configured older IP addresses, we recommend removing them after 30 days.

Data Provided from Integration๐Ÿ”—

Normalized Data Out-of-the-Box Detections Vendor-Specific Detections
Proofpoint   HTTP Email

Note

XDR detectors are not guaranteed to be triggered, even if a data source's logs are normalized to a schema associated with a given detector. However, you can create Custom Detection Rules to generate detections based on normalized data from a data source.
