Integration Details

ThreatQuotient provides the following details for this integration:

Introduction

The Flashpoint Ignite Action integration enriches indicators ingested by the FlashPoint Ignite CDF. The action uses the Flashpoint ID to retrieve details and relates attack patterns and sighted related indicators based on user configuration.

The integration provides the following actions:

  • Flashpoint Ignite - IOC Enrichment - enriches Flashpoint Ignite indicators with attack patterns and sighted related indicators.

The action is compatible with the following indicator types:

  • FQDN
  • IP Address
  • MD5
  • SHA-1
  • SHA-256
  • URL

The action returns the following enriched system objects:

  • Indicators
    • Indicator Attributes
  • Attack Patterns

This action is intended for use with ThreatQ TDR Orchestrator (TQO). An active TQO license is required for this feature.

Prerequisites

  • An active ThreatQ TDR Orchestrator (TQO) license.
  • A data collection containing at least one of the following indicator types:
    • FQDN
    • IP Address
    • MD5
    • SHA-1
    • SHA-256
    • URL

Installation

Perform the following steps to install the integration:

The same steps can be used to upgrade the integration to a new version.

  1. Log into https://marketplace.threatq.com/.
  2. Locate and download the action zip file.
  3. Navigate to the integrations management page on your ThreatQ instance.
  4. Click on the Add New Integration button.
  5. Upload the action zip file using one of the following methods:
    • Drag and drop the zip file into the dialog box
    • Select Click to Browse to locate the zip file on your local machine

    ThreatQ will inform you if the action already exists on the platform and will require user confirmation before proceeding. ThreatQ will also inform you if the new version of the action contains changes to the user configuration. The new user configurations will overwrite the existing ones for the action and will require user confirmation before proceeding.

You will still need to configure the action.

Hash Mapping

Time is determined based on the Hash length: 32: md5 40: sha-1 64: sha-256

Extracted Config Note

Extracted_config is a special Flashpoint indicator type, that might have the value in this format:

"{\"Port\": \"3000\", \"ServerID\": \"vagina\", \"Password\": \"1234\", \"Install_Flag\": \"TRUE\", \"Install_Directory\": \"HostManager\", \"Install_Name\": \"HostManager.exe\", \"ActiveX_Startup\": \"{AL887A2X-5730-5620-121P-H80DXJR5ECUY}\", \"Enable_Message_Box\": \"FALSE\", \"Activate_Keylogger\": \"TRUE\", \"Keylogger_Enable_FTP\": \"FALSE\", \"FTP_Directory\": \"./logs/\", \"FTP_UserName\": \"ftp_user\", \"FTP_Password\": \"none\", \"FTP Port\": \"21\", \"FTP_Interval\": \"30\", \"Persistance\": \"TRUE\", \"Hide_File\": \"TRUE\", \"Change_CreationDate\": \"TRUE\", \"Mutex\": \"UDPMQ83G21587O\", \"MeltFile\": \"TRUE\", \"Startup_Policies\": \"Policies\", \"USB_Spread\": \"1000\", \"P2P_Spread\": \"none\", \"GoogleChrome_Passwords\": \"http://www.server.com/sqlite3.dll\", \"Domain\": [\"mw2jtag.no-ip.info\"]}"

The indicators are extracted by parsing this value such as: Filename, URL, FQDN, IP Addresses.

Enriched Data

Object counts and action runtime are supplied as generalities only - objects returned by a provider can differ based on credential configurations and action runtime may vary based on system resources and load.

Metric Result
Run Time 1 minute
Indicators 4
Indicator Attributes 6
Attack Pattern 54

Use Case Example

  1. A user submits 5 indicators ingested by Flashpoint Ignite CDF, that have Flashpoint ID attribute, using the Flashpoint Ignite - IOC Enrichment action to the Flashpoint Ignite.
  2. The action queries the Flashpoint Ignite for indicator details, based on the Flashpoint ID.
  3. The action relates ThreatQ Attack Patterns that are matched based on details Attack Pattern IDs and ingests related indicators from sightings, based on user configuration.
