What the data for this category looks like
Data for this category comes from SIEM, EDR, NDR, and third-party threat intelligence sources. Update cadence falls into two categories: real-time alert streams and daily summary documents. Daily produced documents include alert disposal sheets, duty logs, threat intelligence notifications, and daily/weekly reports. Core fields include alert ID, threat level, disposal status, and dispatch records. Units are based on count (alerts), count (disposals), and cycle (weekly reports). Data flow must cover the full process of alert judgment, false positive elimination, and escalation dispatch, with no additional aggregated statistical fields.
What constraints these characteristics impose on the "HTTP Interfaces and External Systems" link
Real-time alert streams require HTTP interfaces to support low-latency callbacks and batch pushes, to meet the rapid judgment needs of SOC duty. Multi-source data access must be compatible with the interface protocols of different data sources, to avoid data parsing failures caused by format differences. Pulling daily summary documents must support pagination and batch requests, to adapt to the capacity limits of single processing. The structured requirements for core fields require the interface to return standardized information such as alert ID and threat level, to facilitate automatic screening and disposal dispatch. At the same time, to avoid missed real attacks or accumulation of false positives, the interface must have a retry mechanism and error tracing capabilities.
How to set the configurations
The following configurations are based on FastGPT v4.17.0.
| Configuration Item | Recommended Setting | Rationale |
|---|---|---|
| Interface timeout threshold | 600 seconds | Meets low-latency response requirements for real-time alerts, avoids prolonged blocking of duty workflows |
| Batch pull limit | First 100 entries | Controls data volume per request, adapts to the processing rhythm of daily summary documents |
Authorization | Bearer {exclusive API key} | Complies with identity verification specifications for security-focused interfaces, ensures secure data transmission |
variables | {"datatype": ["alert", "threatreport"]} | Limits data types returned by the interface, reduces redundant information |
responseData | Only retain alert ID, threat level, disposal status | Focuses on core judgment fields for SOC duty, improves processing efficiency |
Three common mistakes
- 400 Bad Request status code appears, and request body content cannot be modified. Cause: Request parameters were not assembled according to the field requirements of the SOC data source, resulting in interface verification failure.
- URIError: URI malformed error occurs when accessing the login interface. Cause: The interface address contains unencoded special characters, or the configured callback address format does not meet specifications.
- The number of interface return results does not match expectations. Cause: The batch pull limit parameter was not set correctly, or the pagination rules of the data source were not adapted to, resulting in data truncation or duplication.
How to confirm the configuration is complete
- Based on FastGPT v4.17.0, call the configured HTTP interface, check whether the fields returned by
responseDatainclude preset core information such as alert ID, threat level, and disposal status. - Simulate real-time alert push, verify whether the interface can return a valid response within 600 seconds, with no timeout errors.
- Check whether the
Authorizationparameter is configured correctly, send an unauthorized request, confirm that the interface returns a 401 Unauthorized status code, and verify that identity verification is effective. - Pull daily alert data in batches, check that the number of returned entries matches the preset batch pull limit, and confirm that the pagination logic works normally.
