FireEye HX - Indicators Hunting
This playbook facilitates threat hunting and detection of IOCs within FireEye Endpoint Security (HX) utilizing three sub-playbooks. The sub-playbooks query FireEye HX for different indicators including files, traffic, and execution flow indicators. Note that multiple search values should be separated by commas only (without spaces or any special characters). Supported IOCs for this playbook: - MD5 - SHA1 - SHA256 - IP Address - URLDomain - Registry Value - Registry Key - File Name - Process Name - Port Number - File Path - FileType
