Introduction

The Permiso Research Blog CDF allows analysts to automatically ingest blog posts directly from the Permiso Research Blog, ensuring timely access to the latest cybersecurity updates. This integration enables teams to stay informed on emerging threats, trends, and research insights across the cybersecurity landscape.

The integration provides the following feed:

• Permiso Research Blog - pulls blogs posts from the Permiso Blog's Research category and ingests them into ThreatQ as Report objects.

The integration ingests the following object types:

• Indicators
• Reports
  • Report Attributes 
• Vulnerabilities 

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.

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

ThreatQ Mapping

Permiso Research Blog

The Permiso Research Blog feed periodically pulls blog posts from the Permiso Blog's Research category and ingests them into ThreatQ as Report objects.

GET https://permiso.io/blog

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

GET https://permiso.io/blog/{{ uri }}

ThreatQuotient provides the following default mapping for this feed based on the information parsed out of the blog's HTML content: 

Feed Data Path	ThreatQ Entity	ThreatQ Object Type or Attribute Key	Published Date	Examples	Notes
N/A	Report.Title	N/A	N/A	LUCR-3: Scattered Spider Getting SaaS-y in the Cloud	Parsed from the HTML
N/A	Report.Description	N/A	N/A	N/A	Parsed from the HTML
N/A	Report.Attribute	External Reference	N/A	https://permiso.io/blog/lucr-3-scattered-spider-getting-saas-y-in-the-cloud	Parsed from HTML
N/A	Report.Attribute	Published At	N/A	2023-09-20	Parsed from the HTML
N/A	Report.Attribute	Author	N/A	Ian Ahl	Parsed from the HTML
N/A	Related Indicator/Vulnerability	CVE/Vulnerability	N/A	CVE-2023-41232	Parsed from HTML

Known Issues / Limitations

• The Permiso Research Blog feed only pulls in blog posts from the Research Category.
• The feed utilizes since and until dates to make sure entries are not re-ingested if they haven't been updated.
• If you need to ingest historical blog posts, run the feed manually by setting the since date back.
• ThreatQuotient recommends running this integration every 2 weeks based on the publication pace of the site.
