Authenticate macOS senders over TLS with certificates in System Keychain?
Hello, We are deploying NXLog Enterprise on a fleet of macOS devices with the goals to collect endpoint events even remotely. Which mean Graylog GELF exposed over Internet, with TLS encryption and certificate authentication requirements. I see that om_ssl can do the job of TLS communication and even client authentication, but the settings I see are using file path for the Private Key. Is there a way to have NXLog with om_ssl on macOS using a certificate from the System Keychain ? Thanks

How to figure out what event types to filter in im_maculs
I've been tasked to roll out nxlog on all of our Macs. I have it working in the sense that logs are being uploaded to our syslog server. However I've been given a list from https://www.iansresearch.com/resources/all-blogs/post/security-blog/2021/04/29/best-practices-for-macos-logging-monitoring and told to implement it. How the heck do I find out what eventtypes to filter so that I can capture the list of logs that is on this webpage. And is this list even the right one to follow? It mentions using Consolation 3, but I have no idea how that's supposed to help me figure this out. What is your goto source for this type of info?
