Determine whether an IOC affects your environment, review explainable tenant matches, and safely automate enforceable indicators across SIEM, network, DNS, and endpoint controls.

Audience: Security engineers, SOC analysts, and network administratorsTypical time: 5-10 minutes

Antes de começar

  • Create an ingestion API key in Settings → API Keys with at least read access to the Threat Intel blocklist.
  • Confirm your security tooling (WAF, DNS, EDR) has API or file-based ingestion capabilities.
  • Review the indicator types available in your tenant (IP, domain, SHA256) to decide which integrations to deploy first.

Guide walkthrough

1

Passo 1

Investigate whether the threat affects you

Use the Query tab for IPs, domains, URLs, emails, SHA256 hashes, CVEs, or sanctioned entities, then pivot from source rationale into tenant evidence.

  • Open `/threat-intel?tab=query` and search a recent record from the intelligence library.
  • Review verdict, severity, confidence, freshness, blocklist eligibility, and source evidence.
  • Inspect matches across SIEM, EASM, and findings, then open the linked finding or alert when one exists.
  • Escalate through the normal incident workflow only after validating impact; context records never create incidents directly.

Como é o sucesso

Escalate through the normal incident workflow only after validating impact; context records never create incidents directly.

Passo 2

Choose a safe downstream recipe

The Integrations tab shows prerequisites, expected results, and copy-ready examples for Splunk, Sentinel, Elastic, firewalls, AWS WAF, DNS, EDR, REST, and the Python SDK.

  • Start with a detect-only or preview mode when the destination supports it.
  • Use `/api/v1/threat-intel/blocklist/export` only for prevention controls.
  • Use `/api/v1/threat-intel/investigate`, `/records`, and `/matches` for analyst context and correlation.
  • Preserve normal finding lifecycle resolution when intelligence later becomes stale; do not silently close historical evidence.

Como é o sucesso

Preserve normal finding lifecycle resolution when intelligence later becomes stale; do not silently close historical evidence.

Passo 3

Deploying to AWS WAF

Fetch the IPv4 blocklist and pipe it dynamically into an AWS WAF IPSet to block malicious scanners automatically.

  • Generate a read-only API key with threat_intel:read in Settings → API Keys.
  • Use the Boto3 Python snippet to `requests.get` the `/threat-intel/blocklist/export?indicator_type=ip`.
  • Transform the IPs into `address/32` CIDR notation.
  • Call `waf_client.update_ip_set()` to push the changes live.

Como é o sucesso

Call `waf_client.update_ip_set()` to push the changes live.

Passo 4

DNS Sinkholing with CoreDNS or Pi-hole

Use a bash script to fetch malicious domains and sinkhole them to prevent internal systems from resolving known malware or C2 infrastructure.

  • Fetch the domain export over the CSV endpoint: `/export?format=csv&indicator_type=domain`.
  • Parse each malicious domain and output `0.0.0.0 [domain]` into a `hosts` file.
  • Reload your DNS daemon (e.g. `pihole restartdns reload`).

Como é o sucesso

Reload your DNS daemon (e.g. `pihole restartdns reload`).

5

Passo 5

EDR Hash Ingestion

Export known malicious SHA256 hashes to import directly into your Endpoint Detection and Response platform (like CrowdStrike Falcon) to quarantine malware on execution.

  • Fetch the SHA256 export over the CSV endpoint.
  • Parse the payload to extract the hash and threat name.
  • Transform into the respective API payload format for your EDR.
  • Execute the request to sync the IOCs with your detection policies.

Como é o sucesso

Execute the request to sync the IOCs with your detection policies.

Como é o sucesso

  • Your AWS WAF IPSet reflects the latest blocklist IPs and blocks known-malicious scanners.
  • DNS sinkhole hosts file reloads on schedule and internal clients can no longer resolve blocklisted domains.
  • EDR platform shows newly imported SHA256 IOCs with the correct threat labels from BlackShield.
