Overview
This workflow automates the process of retrieving security reports from Qualys and saving them into TheHive, a popular incident response platform. It ensures that only new, unprocessed reports are handled, optimizing security operations.
Key Features
- Automated Trigger: Initiates on manual command for controlled execution.
- Data Fetching: Uses HTTP requests to securely pull reports from Qualys.
- Filtering Logic: Removes already processed reports to avoid duplication.
- Batch Processing: Splits reports into manageable batches for efficient handling.
- XML Parsing: Converts report data for compatibility with TheHive.
- Timestamp Management: Tracks last processed report to maintain workflow continuity.
Benefits
- Reduces Manual Effort: Eliminates repetitive tasks in report management.
- Improves Accuracy: Ensures only new reports are processed, minimizing errors.
- Enhances Security Response: Speeds up incident detection and response by integrating key platforms.
- Saves Time: Automates data transfer and processing, freeing up security teams for higher-value tasks.
Use Cases
- Security teams needing to automate vulnerability report ingestion.
- Organizations seeking to streamline incident response workflows.
- Businesses aiming to maintain up-to-date threat intelligence in TheHive.
Integrations & Processes
- Qualys: Source of vulnerability and security reports.
- TheHive: Destination for structured incident data.
- n8n: Orchestrates the entire automation, handling logic, batching, and data transformation.
