About the connector

Cyware Threat Intelligence Exchange (CTIX) uses the Cyware threat intelligence feed and automatically aggregates tactical intelligence from various STIX/TAXII feeds to provide you with a consolidated, easily readable, and actionable intel.

This document provides information about the Cyware CTIX connector, which facilitates automated interactions with a CTIX server using FortiSOAR™ playbooks. Add the Cyware CTIX connector as a step in FortiSOAR™ playbooks and perform automated operations, such as automatically searching and retrieving information for IP addresses, domains, URLs etc from CTIX.

Version information

Connector Version: 1.0.0

FortiSOAR™ Version Tested on: 6.0.0-790

Authored By: Fortinet

Certified: Yes

Installing the connector

From version 5.0.0 onwards, use the Connector Store to install the connector. For the detailed procedure to install a connector, click here.
You can also use the yum command to install connectors. Connectors provided by FortiSOAR™ are delivered using a FortiSOAR™ repository. Therefore, you must set up your FortiSOAR™ repository and run the yum command as a root user to install connectors:

yum install cyops-connector-cyware-ctix

Prerequisites to configuring the connector

  • You must have the URL of Cyware CTIX server to which you will connect and perform automated operations and credentials to access that server.
  • To access the FortiSOAR™ UI, ensure that port 443 is open through the firewall for the FortiSOAR™ instance.

Configuring the connector

For the procedure to configure a connector, click here.

Configuration parameters

In FortiSOAR™, on the Connectors page, click the Cyware CTIX connector row (if you are in the Grid view on the Connectors page) and in the Configurations tab enter the required configuration details:

Parameter Description
