README
Deletes indicators ingested from Cyware Intel Exchange (CTIX v3) that are flagged as deprecated, revoked, false positive, reviewed, or whitelisted, by running the CTIXDeleteFlaggedIndicators script.
All delete flags default to false, so the playbook does nothing until at least one flag input is enabled. It is intended to run on a schedule via the bundled CTIX - Delete Flagged Indicators job — jobs cannot pass per-run inputs, so enable the desired flags once by editing the playbook input defaults (or the job’s playbook input overrides).
Note: an indicator flagged in CTIX is only picked up after the CTIX v3 feed re-fetches it, which updates the indicator’s flag fields in the Threat Intel Module; the next run then finds and deletes it.
