IntelMQ is a solution for IT security teams for collecting and processing security feeds using a message queuing protocol.

Project description

Welcome to IntelMQ!

IntelMQ

Build Status CII Badge

IntelMQ is a solution for IT security teams (CERTs & CSIRTs, SOCs, abuse departments, etc.) for collecting and processing security feeds (such as log files) using a message queuing protocol. It’s a community driven initiative called IHAP (Incident Handling Automation Project) which was conceptually designed by European CERTs/CSIRTs during several InfoSec events. Its main goal is to give to incident responders an easy way to collect & process threat intelligence thus improving the incident handling processes of CERTs.

IntelMQ can be used for - automated incident handling - situational awareness - automated notifications - as data collector for other tools - etc.

IntelMQ’s design was influenced by AbuseHelper, however it was re-written from scratch and aims at:

  • Reducing the complexity of system administration

  • Reducing the complexity of writing new bots for new data feeds

  • Reducing the probability of events lost in all process with persistence functionality (even system crash)

  • Use and improve the existing Data Harmonization Ontology

  • Use JSON format for all messages

  • Provide easy way to store data into Log Collectors like ElasticSearch, Splunk, databases (such as PostgreSQL)

  • Provide easy way to create your own black-lists

  • Provide easy communication with other systems via HTTP RESTful API

It follows the following basic meta-guidelines:

  • Don’t break simplicity - KISS

  • Keep it open source - forever

  • Strive for perfection while keeping a deadline

  • Reduce complexity/avoid feature bloat

  • Embrace unit testing

  • Code readability: test with unexperienced programmers

  • Communicate clearly

IntelMQ Manager and more tools

Several pieces of software evolved around IntelMQ. For example, check out IntelMQ Manager which is a web based interface to easily manage an IntelMQ system.

More tools can be found in the IntelMQ Universe chapter in the documentation.
