Under the Windows Application Logs I have a subfolder called DigitalPersona. I need to ship those logs to Kibana. Right now my winlogbeat.yml is configured as such:  
winlogbeat.event\_logs:

- name: Application  
ignore\_older: 72h

What do I need to add to this in order for winlogbeat to pick up the DigitalPersona logs?

So this is a separate event log from Application? If so then you will need to add another event log reader to your configuration. You can use the commands listed [in the documentation](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/winlogbeat/current/configuration-winlogbeat-options.html#configuration-winlogbeat-options-event_logs-name) to discover the proper name to use for this log you want to monitor.
