ThreatQ Mapping

Cyfirma Cyber Research Blog

The Cyfirma Cyber Research Blog feed periodically pulls threat research posts from the Cyfirma Cyber Research blog and ingests them into ThreatQ as report objects.

GET https://www.cyfirma.com/cyber-research/

The request returns HTML. The HTML is parsed for the title, date, links, etc. The blog itself is then fetched.

GET https://www.cyfirma.com/research/{{ uri }}

ThreatQuotient provides the following default mapping for this feed:

Feed Data Path	ThreatQ Entity	ThreatQ Object Type or Attribute Key	Published Date	Examples	Notes
