You can choose to send Safetica 10 alerts to your SIEM software. Each Safetica DLP log contains an alert type number and description of the violation.

Information in this article applies to Safetica 10 or older.

This feature is only available for Safetica Enterprise.

Integration with SIEM can be set up individually for each alert in the fourth step of alert configuration:

Below, you can see an example of a Safetica DLP log sent to SIEM:

Encoding of the alerts with special characters

We suggest setting up the UTF-8 encoding multibyte encoding in your SIEM if you have alerts with certain accent characters sent from Safetica. Another way would be to not use these characters.
