What this category of data looks like
This category of data mainly comes from SIEM, EDR, firewall logs and host images, updated in real time or triggered per single event. Daily produced documents include emergency response reports, forensics records, disposal plans and notification materials. Fields include event ID, attack source IP, affected assets, disposal time and evidence chain hash value. Units include timestamps, IP address strings, byte counts and other standard formats. Data is generated around confirmed security incidents, only created and updated during the full incident disposal process, and does not include alert data that has not triggered disposal actions.
What constraints do these characteristics impose on HTTP interfaces and external systems
Since data comes from multiple types of security device logs, interfaces must support batch access of multi-source formats and be compatible with differences in log fields across devices. Real-time or single-event triggered updates require interfaces to have low-latency response capabilities, to avoid broken evidence chains caused by delays. Document fields include encrypted hash values and sensitive asset information. Interfaces must configure the Authorization parameter for permission verification, to prevent unauthorized access and sensitive data leaks. Evidence chain organization during disposal requires associating multi-link data. Interfaces must support associative querying of historical data from external systems by event ID, to ensure data consistency across different links.
How to set configurations
| Configuration Item | Recommended Setting | Rationale |
|---|---|---|
Authorization | Bearer ${Security Service Exclusive API Key} | This parameter is used to verify interface access permissions, meets the sensitive attribute requirements of security incident data, and adapts to the interface authentication rules of FastGPT v4.17.0 |
| Maximum single request data limit | First 100 event logs | Avoid excessive single request data volume causing timeouts, adapts to real-time update frequency and interface carrying capacity |
variables | {"event_source": ["SIEM", "EDR", "firewall"]} | Limit data source scope, filter irrelevant logs, improve interface processing efficiency, and accurately match the data needs of emergency response |
responseData | Only return event_id, attack_ip, handle_time fields | Simplify returned content, reduce parsing costs for external systems, and meet the core field requirements of emergency response documents |
| Timeout period | 600 seconds | Forensics records and disposal plans may take a long time to generate, avoid mid-connection disconnections causing incomplete data |
Three common mistakes
- Phenomenon: Calling the file upload interface returns a 404 status code, or file upload fails but the template import function works normally. Cause: The interface path is not configured correctly, confusing the general dataset upload interface with the dedicated forensics file upload interface for emergency response, resulting in path mismatch.
- Phenomenon: The interface returns an empty
responseDatafield, and disposal results cannot be obtained. Cause: The required return core fields are not specified in the configuration, causing the full default data returned by the interface to be filtered, or the event ID parameter is not correctly associated. - Phenomenon: Interface call times out, and forensics record synchronization cannot be completed. Cause: A reasonable timeout period is not set, or multi-source log access at the same time causes the request load to exceed the interface carrying limit.
How to confirm the configuration is complete
- Use the built-in interface debugging tool of FastGPT v4.17.0, fill in the
Authorizationparameter and the preset API key, send a test request, and check that the returned status code is 200. - Pass a simulated event ID parameter, and verify that the fields returned in
responseDatamatch the fields specified in the configuration. - Send 10 consecutive single-event synchronization requests, and check that all interface response times do not exceed the preset timeout threshold.
- Import a test forensics record file, and confirm that the interface successfully receives it and returns the correct file hash value.
