TISC Intel Exchange API

Enables external systems to share threat intelligence data with the Threat Intelligence Security Center (TISC) application.

This API requires the Threat Intelligence Security Center application, which is available on the ServiceNow Store.

For additional information about TISC, see Threat Intelligence Security Center.

This API runs in the sn_sec_tisc namespace. The calling user must have the sn_sec_tisc.api_post_intel role.

The current version of this API is v1.

Parent Topic:REST API reference

TISC Intel Exchange - POST /sn_sec_tisc/tisc_intel_sharing_api/post_intel

Shares threat intelligence data from an external source with the Threat Intelligence Security Center (TISC) application.

This endpoint creates an inbound intelligence record, as well as records for indicators, objects, and observables.

Indicator records are created in the Indicator Source [sn_sec_tisc_indicator_source] table.

Object records are created in the following tables that extend Object Source [sn_sec_tisc_object_source].

  • Attack Pattern Source [sn_sec_tisc_attack_pattern_source]
