Threat Hunting Events to Incidents

This workflow periodically checks Cisco Secure Endpoint for SecureX Threat Hunting events. When an event is returned, the workflow collects information from it and creates a casebook and incident in Cisco SecureX to document what happened. This workflow is designed to run every 5 minutes on a schedule.

Configuration

• By default, the workflow is configured to run every 5 minutes using the 0012 - Secure Endpoint - Threat Hunting Events to Incidents schedule. When you import the workflow, the schedule trigger will be disabled. To enable the schedule:
  • Open the workflow in the workflow editor
  • Scroll down to the Triggers section of the workflow’s properties and click Secure Endpoint Event Polling
  • Uncheck the Disable Trigger box and click Save

Activities

• If you change the schedule for this workflow, you will need to adjust the Calculate time 5 minutes ago activity’s Adjustment input variable to match the new schedule. As in, if you change the schedule to every 10 minutes, you would need to subtract 600 seconds instead of 300
• All of the Threat Response activities default to a TLP Value of amber. You can modify this if you want to use different values
