About the connector
Cisco Umbrella Investigate provides the most complete view of the relationships and evolution of domains, IPs, autonomous systems (ASNs), and file hashes. Investigate is accessible using a web console and an API and its rich threat intelligence adds the security context needed to uncover and predict threats.
This document provides information about the Cisco Umbrella Investigate connector, which facilitates automated interactions, with a Cisco Umbrella Investigate server using FortiSOAR™ playbooks. Add the Cisco Umbrella Investigate connector as a step in FortiSOAR™ playbooks and perform automated operations, such as retrieving information about a domain from Cisco Umbrella Investigate or retrieving a list of malicious domains associated with a specified IP address from Cisco Umbrella Investigate.
