Integrate UrlScan.io with Google SecOps

This document provides guidance on how to integrate urlscan.io with Google SecOps.

This document explains how to integrate UrlScan.io with Google Security Operations.

Use cases

The UrlScan.io integration uses Google SecOps capabilities to support the following use cases:

  • Automated URL analysis: Automatically submit suspicious URLs to UrlScan.io to determine risk levels and retrieve screenshots for visual verification during incident triage.

  • Threat intelligence enrichment: Enrich alerts by querying UrlScan.io for detailed metadata on IP addresses, domains, and URLs, providing analysts with immediate context on ASN, server types, and malicious scores.

  • Proactive historical scan search: Search existing public and private scans associated with indicators of compromise to identify historical malicious activity and patterns.

  • Deep-dive forensics and reporting: Retrieve comprehensive scan details using specific scan IDs to perform in-depth analysis of cookies, request counts, and related links for complex security investigations.

Before you begin

To authenticate the connection between Google SecOps and UrlScan.io, you must provide a valid API key.

You can obtain and manage your API keys within the Profile section of your urlscan.io account.

Integration parameters

The urlscan.io integration requires the following parameters:

Parameter Description
Api Key

Required.

The unique API key used to authenticate with the urlscan.io service.

Verify SSL

Optional.

If selected, the integration validates the SSL certificate when connecting to the UrlScan.io server.

For instructions about how to configure an integration in Google SecOps, see Configure integrations.

You can make changes at a later stage, if needed. After you configure an integration instance, you can use it in playbooks. For more information about how to configure and support multiple instances, see Supporting multiple instances.
