    What is your goal for this integration? You could log ASM events via syslog to logstash. These should help you get started:

We have a managed security provider who uses loglogic as a their log collection and correlation tool and we have many issues searching through logs. Basically we are looking for to search through logs (with logstasch) and a nice front end which is why i think kibana is good.

 

I didnt understand what you meant by kibana in front of ASM, does this possible to view logs with only Kibana? Thanks.
