Cisco Duo

Connect Cisco Duo to ingest MFA and authentication activity into Radiant for AI triage.

Radiant connects to Cisco Duo through the Duo Admin API to ingest authentication telemetry, including successful and failed multi-factor authentication attempts. Configuration is a one-time setup performed in the Duo Admin Panel and Radiant Security.

At the end of this configuration, you provide Radiant Security with the following values:

  • API hostname

  • Integration key

  • Secret key

Prerequisites

Generate Admin API credentials in Cisco Duo

For vendor instructions, refer to Cisco Duo's Admin API documentation.

1

Open the Admin API application

Sign in to the Duo Admin Panel as an Owner. In the left sidebar, click Applications, then click Protect an Application. Locate Admin API in the list and click Protect on that row.

2

Copy the credentials

The Admin API configuration page displays the three values Radiant needs. Copy and store each one securely:

  • Integration key

  • Secret key

  • API hostname

3

Grant the Read log permission and save

On the same page, scroll to Permissions and select Grant read log. Click Save at the bottom of the page.

    • API hostname: enter without the https:// prefix, in the format api-XXXXXXXX.duosecurity.com.

    • Integration key

    • Secret key

  7. Click Add Connector to save the configuration.

Verify ingestion

After Cisco Duo begins forwarding, confirm events are reaching Radiant.

  1. In Radiant, navigate to Log Management.

  2. Filter by rs_connectorType:"cisco_duo".

Allow several minutes for events to be parsed, indexed, and available for search.
