Event Notification - Integration
Purpose
This document provides users with a detailed list of Integrations for the Event Notifications module in OUTSCAN and HIAB.
Description
When configuring the Event Notification, several Integrations can be selected to tailor the notification. Integrations refer to the seamless incorporation of different software systems, tools, or services to work cohesively within a unified environment. Integrations act as bridges that enable the cybersecurity platform to communicate and share information with external applications or services. They play an important role in streamlining communication, enhancing data visibility, and automating workflows.
For more detailed information on integration, see Integration Management.
Integration | Description |
|---|---|
Notification | Direct notification integration within Outscan provides real-time alerts without having to leave the platform. This is especially beneficial for active monitoring or incident response. Security analysts can customize in-app notifications to highlight specific risk levels or critical events, streamlining workflows. The per-user configurability allows team members to tailor notifications to their roles or event urgency, optimizing the platform for individual needs. |
Email integration is crucial for delivering timely alerts to stakeholders. It enables security administrators to receive instant notifications of critical updates, unauthorized access attempts, or potential breaches. This allows for swift assessment and response to incidents, shortening reaction time. Additionally, customizable email templates can include details like affected assets, severity levels, and recommended actions, facilitating a more informed response. | |
SNMP | Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) integration enables Outscan to actively monitor network devices, servers, and other assets. It reports changes such as asset additions, modifications, deletions, and new vulnerabilities. By capturing real-time details about asset health and status, it provides insights into potential security threats or network changes. This functionality allows security teams to respond proactively, enhancing threat detection and security threat mitigation. |
Syslog | Syslog integration offers significant advantages for cybersecurity operations by centralizing log data on user logins, system changes, and security events. It enables forensic investigations by analysing log s to trace security incidents and supports compliance by maintaining an audit trail for regulatory requirements and demonstrating security diligence. |
Webhook | Webhooks are a mechanism for enabling real-time communication between web applications. They allow one application to send automated, event-driven information to another application in the form of HTTP requests. Webhooks are typically used to notify or trigger actions in response to specific events or updates. |
