Key Features
- MITRE ATT&CK and DEFEND Framework Integrations: Introduced and enhanced support for MITRE ATT&CK and DEFEND frameworks, including automated ingestion of data, normalized schema, and interactive visualizations within the Security Incident Response (SIR) Workspace.
- Observable Management Enhancements: Added precedence mode to control observable finding updates, new observable categories like username, and filters to optimize threat lookup frequency per observable.
- Performance and Stability Improvements: Fixed inefficient queries during MITRE ATT&CK operations, resolved memory issues during TAXII integration with large XML files, and addressed various bugs related to sandbox submissions, ACL misconfigurations, and observable parsing.
- Workflow Modernization: Migrated base system workflows to Flow Designer to streamline orchestration and automation.
- Security and Compliance Fixes: Addressed stored cross-site scripting vulnerabilities, updated ACLs for sensitive tables, and improved rate limiting for threat lookup requests.
- Integration Support: Enhanced compatibility with external threat data sources such as Metadefender and TAXII endpoints, ensuring optimized data imports and hash lookups.
Practical Benefits for ServiceNow Customers
- Enable comprehensive threat intelligence ingestion and correlation leveraging industry-standard frameworks.
- Improve accuracy and efficiency in identifying and updating threat observables through advanced finding modes and filters.
- Enhance security operations automation with Flow Designer workflows and improved integration stability.
- Gain richer visual context for threat entities and defensive relationships, facilitating better decision-making within the SIR Workspace.
