  • 1.  Qradar - Kafka intergration SASL auth

    Posted Fri August 11, 2023 08:38 AM

    Hello, does anyone know what type of SASL authentication is used by Qradar for Kafka integration? I know Kafka supports SCRAM SHA256 and 512 but I think Qradar doesnt support it. Thank you.

    I looked in to this and the Kafka protocol in QRadar does not yet support SCRAM-SHA-256 or SCRAM-SHA-512. I confirmed this as I found a work item where development has started working on an update for the Kafka protocol, but work is on-going for this issue.
