# QRadar

> IBM QRadar is a Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) solution that helps organizations detect, investigate, and respond to security threats. It collects and analyzes log data from various sources (network devices, servers, applications, etc.) to identify potential security incidents.

### Generate SEC Token via QRadar UI

  <Step title="Access IBM QRadar Portal">
    1. Login to the **QRadar** as an administrator.
    2. Provide the necessary credentials (**Email** and **Password**), and click **Sign In**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Create an Auth SEC Token">
    1. Go to **Admin tab** in the top menu.
    2. Select the **User Management → Authorized Services**.
    3. Click **Add Authorized Service**.
    4. Fill in the required details:
       * **Service Name**: (e.g., `API_Access`)
       * **User Role**: Select the role with the necessary permissions.
       * **Expiry Date**: Set a validity period for the token.
       * **API Access**: Choose the appropriate access level.

### Access Deployment URL in IBM QRadar UI

1. Login to the **QRadar** as an administrator.
2. Provide the necessary credentials (**Email** and **Password**), and click **Sign In**.
3. Go to **Admin tab** in the top menu.
4. Under **System and License Management**, you can check settings like **Host** or **Network Settings**.
5. Typically, it would be something like `https://<QRadar-IP>/console`, where `<QRadar-IP>` is the IP address or the hostname of your QRadar system.

<Note>
  The base **deployment URL** in QRadar is generally the IP address or domain of your QRadar system followed by `/api/`for the API endpoints.QRadar API Testing\
  \
  For example: https\://\<QRadar-IP>/api/\
  \
  Replace `<QRadar-IP>` with the actual IP address or the hostname of your QRadar system.

  So if your QRadar instance is hosted at `192.168.1.100`, the deployment URL would be: [https://192.168.1.100/api](https://192.168.1.100/api)
</Note>

<Warning>
  Ensure that the URL starts with `https://` for secure connections
</Warning>

<Check>
  Securely share the **URL** to AirMDR or self Configure in the AirMDR Integrations Dashboard.
</Check>

Open **cURL** and run the following command to check if your API Key is working:

```

curl --location '{auth_url}/api/siem/offenses' \
--header 'SEC: {token}' \
--header 'Range: items=0-0'
```
