Integration Details

ThreatQuotient provides the following details for this integration:

Introduction

The NCFTA CDF integration ingests published MISP events from a user-provided, self-hosted MISP server instance.  The MISP threat sharing platform is free and open source software that enables sharing of threat intelligence represented in the MISP data model format.

The integration provides the following feed:

  • NCFTA - ingests MISP events from the NCFTA MISP instance.

The integration ingests the following system objects:

  • Adversaries
  • Attachments
  • Attack Patterns
  • Course of actions
  • Events
  • Indicators
  • Intrusion Sets
  • Malware
  • Signatures
  • Tools

Prerequisites

If you intend to ingest MISP events that are related to any MITRE MISP galaxies, confirm that the following feeds successfully run prior to running the MISP Import feed:

  • MITRE Enterprise ATT&CK
  • MITRE Mobile ATT&CK
  • MITRE ICS ATT&CK

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 integration yaml file.
  3. Navigate to the integrations management page on your ThreatQ instance.
  4. Click on the Add New Integration button.
  5. Upload the integration yaml file using one of the following methods:
    • Drag and drop the file into the dialog box
    • Select Click to Browse to locate the file on your local machine

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

  6. The feed will be added to the integrations page. You will still need to configure and then enable the feed.

Configuration

ThreatQuotient does not issue API keys for third-party vendors. Contact the specific vendor to obtain API keys and other integration-related credentials.

To configure the integration:

  1. Navigate to your integrations management page in ThreatQ.
  2. Select the OSINT option from the Category dropdown (optional).

    If you are installing the integration for the first time, it will be located under the Disabled tab.

  3. Click on the integration entry to open its details page.
  4. Enter the following parameters under the Configuration tab:
    Parameter Description
    MISP Domain Name The MISP server instance domain name (or IP address) preceded by the protocol it uses, such as https://my-misp-server.org. The provided domain name or IP address must be reachable from the ThreatQ instance. 
    API Key The MISP account API key.
    Query Filter Characteristics Set which parameters that decide which events to retrieve at run-time.  Options include:
    • Modified Events - ingest contents of any modified event since the last run.
    • New Events - ingest events having a newer date than configured start date together with their full context.
    Sharing Group Filter Enter a line-separated list of sharing group names (or IDs) to filter events by.

    Only selected sharing group events will be ingested.

    Categories to Ingest for Other Type Attributes Select the categories that should be added to the event description from MISP attributes of the type: other. Options include:
    • Internal reference
    • Antivirus detection
    • Payload delivery
    • Artifacts dropped
    • Payload installation
    • Persistence mechanism
    • Network activity
    • Payload type
    • Attribution
    • External analysis
    • Financial fraud (default)
    • Support Tool
    • Social network
    • Person (default)
    • Other
    Extract CyFin Tags   Enable this parameter to extract terms between brackets or parentheses in Cyfin event titles. These tags can be utilized for dashboarding or search your Threat Library. This parameter is disabled by default. 
    Apply CyFin Tags to Indicators   Enable this parameter to apply extracted CyFin tags to the indicators derived from the MISP event (excluding User-Agent). When disabled, tags will be applied only to the MISP event. This parameter is disabled by default.
    Parse & Ingest CyFin Custom IOC Types  Enable this parameter to perform additional parsing of CyFin MISP events in order to extract custom IOC types that are not natively supported by ThreatQ. The custom IOC types are Phone Number, Account Number, and Routing Number. During this process, the integration will create these custom IOC types via the API and apply them to the associated IOCs.
    Disable Proxies Enable this parameter if the feed should not honor proxies set in the ThreatQ UI.
    Enable SSL Certificate Verification Enable this parameter if the feed should validate the host-provided SSL certificate.

Average Feed Run

MISP server instances vary widely in their setup and the data stored within them. Due to this, average feed run results cannot be confidently provided.

Known Issues / Limitations

  • MISP does not verify whether a Snort or YARA rule entered into it is valid. However, the Snort and YARA parsers used by this feed depend on the Snort or YARA rules being well-formed. Please refer to the following non-comprehensive list to aid in making sure that the Snort or YARA rules stored in your MISP server instance are valid so that they can be properly ingested by this feed.
  • Snort:
    • Each rule option must be terminated with a semicolon (;).
    • Offending Snort rule: alert tcp $HOME_NET any -> $EXTERNAL_NET [80,443,8080,7080,21,50000,995](msg:"BDS MALICIOUS Emotet Worming Traffic Likely";content:"d29ybSBzdGFydGVk";content:"POST";http_method;classtype:spreader;sid:7;rev:1)
      • Correction needed: rev:1 should be rev:1;
    • Rule option values must be valid. For instance, options like rev, sid, and gid must have base 10 integers as their value.
    • Offending Snort option: sid:#########;
      • Correction needed: Either remove sid if the value is not known or replace the value with a valid ID, like sid:7;.
    • The value of the snort MISP attribute must contain at least one entire Snort rule. Multiple Snort rules can be provided in a single value if separated by newlines. The value must not contain any excess text, such as a header like Snort rule:.
  • YARA:
    • The value of the yara MISP attribute must contain at least one entire YARA rule. Multiple YARA rules can be provided in a single value if separated by newlines. The value must not contain any excess text, such as a header like YARA rule:.
    • Make sure that any text that is not valid YARA syntax is either removed or commented out.

Change Log

  • Version 1.1.0
    • Added support for ingesting NCFTA custom indicator types, including phone-number (Phone Number), bank-account-nr (Account Number), and aba-rtn (Routing Number).
    • Added the ability to extract tags from CyFin event titles, enabling their use as attributes and analytics within ThreatQ, with optional application to associated indicators.
    • Fixed an issue causing duplication of the Last Seen attribute; the attribute will now update correctly.
    • Enhanced parsing to support additional attributes and objects for NCFTA custom indicator types, including Stock (attribute), Person (Identity object), Target Organization, and Bank (Identity object).
    • Updated the Sharing Group attribute to display the friendly name instead of the numeric group ID.
    • Added the following new configuration parameters:
      • Extract CyFin Tags - extract terms between brackets or parentheses in Cyfin event titles.
      • Apply CyFin Tags to Indicators - applies extracted CyFin tags to the indicators derived from the MISP event.
      • Parse & Ingest CyFin Custom IOC Types - performs additional parsing of CyFin MISP events in order to extract custom IOC types that are not natively supported by ThreatQ.
  • Version 1.0.2
    • Added the ability to ingest MISP attributes of type other in the description.
    • Added a new configuration parameter:
      • Categories To Ingest For Other Type Attributes - allows you to select the categories that should be added to the event description from MISP Attributes of type other.
    • MISP attributes of type threat actor are now ingested as related adversaries.
    • Updated the minimum ThreatQ version to 6.7.2.
  • Version 1.0.1
    • Renamed the Authorization configuration parameter to API Key.  
    • Added a new configuration parameter: Sharing Group Filter.  This parameter allows you to enter a line-separated list of sharing group names (or IDs) to filter events by. Only selected sharing group events will be ingested.
    • Added the ability to ingest email and phone number indicators - see the MISP Attribute Type to ThreatQ Indicator Type Mapping table for more information.  
    • Improved operation of the Query Filter Characteristics filter. 
    • Removed the Save Intrusion Sets configuration parameter.  
    • Updated the minimum ThreatQ version to 6.5.0.  
  • Version 1.0.0
    • Initial release
