Any way to query events for 'Applications and Services Logs' via Live Discover?

Hi iamroot,

Thanks for reaching out to the Sophos Community Forum. 

For logs nested under the "Windows Logs" section the following basic query can be used as a starting point. The value you provide for "channel" will specify which logs you wish to query from. 

SELECT datetime,computer_name,data
FROM windows_eventlog
WHERE eventid=#### AND channel='Application'

Regarding the Applications and Services logs, I was not able to locate a similar way to query this data. If you’re looking for data from specific sections such as "Powershell Events" or "Hardware Events" these are available. 

Could you elaborate on which specific sections you're looking to query? 

For reference, you can find more information on the tables you can access on the following pages.
- Sophos Schema
- OsQuery Schema

Thank you. I was specifically looking for AppLocker event logs under "Applications and Services Logs\Microsoft\Windows\AppLocker"

There are better solutions to do what I need, but I wanted to see if Live Discover had the information I need.

Here is an example:

SELECT
datetime,
JSON_EXTRACT(data, '$.EventData.TargetName') as TargetName,
JSON_EXTRACT(data, '$.EventData.UserName') as UserName,
JSON_EXTRACT(data, '$.EventData.DomainName') as DomainName,
JSON_EXTRACT(data, '$.EventData.CallerPID') as CallerPID,
JSON_EXTRACT(data, '$.EventData.ProcessName') as ProcessName,
JSON_EXTRACT(data, '$.EventData.ClientLUID') as ClientLUID,
JSON_EXTRACT(data, '$.EventData.ClientUserName') as ClientUserName,
JSON_EXTRACT(data, '$.EventData.ClientDomainName') as ClientDomainName,
JSON_EXTRACT(data, '$.EventData.MechanismOID') as MechanismOID
FROM
sophos_windows_events where source = 'Microsoft-Windows-NTLM/Operational'
and eventid = 8001

Hopefully you can change this

Thank you! This is perfect.
