About the connector

PassiveTotal simplifies the event investigation process and provides analysts access to a consolidated platform of data necessary to accurately understand, triage, and address security events.

This document provides information about the PassiveTotal connector, which facilitates automated interactions, with a PassiveTotal server using FortiSOAR™ playbooks. Add the PassiveTotal connector as a step in FortiSOAR™ playbooks and perform automated operations such as retrieving reputation and WhoIs information and for IP address and domain names you have specified.
