Security Center:Threatbook component

Last Updated:Mar 31, 2026

The Threatbook component wraps ThreatBook APIs to bring threat intelligence into Agentic SOC playbooks. Use it to retrieve file analysis reports or assess threats from IP addresses and domain names.

Three actions are available:

ActionUse when
fileReportYou have a file hash and need static and dynamic analysis results
iocReportYou need to check whether an IP address or domain name involved in outbound traffic is malicious
ipReportYou need to assess the reputation and geographic details of an inbound IP address

Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure that you have:

  • Access to System Settings > Feature Settings > Multi-cloud Configuration Management in Security Center

  • A ThreatBook account with an API key

Authorize ThreatBook in Security Center

  1. Go to System Settings > Feature Settings > Multi-cloud Configuration Management.

  2. In the Multi-cloud Assets module, click Add authorization and select IDC.

  3. In the asset access panel, configure the following parameters:

    By default, ThreatBook is authorized for Agentic SOC only. Other features are not supported.
    ParameterDescription
    VendorThreatBook
    ProductThreat Intelligence Cloud API
    Account IDYour ThreatBook account ID
    API keyYour ThreatBook API key
  4. Click Next to configure the policy. Turn on AK Service Status Check to prevent an invalid AccessKey from disrupting your playbooks.

After authorization, your ThreatBook account ID becomes the cloudUserId value required by all three actions.

Configuration example

The following playbook configuration covers all three actions. Import it as a test playbook in the visual editor to explore the parameters for each action. For import instructions, see Import a playbook.

Save the sample data as a JSON file before importing.

fileReport

Use this action to retrieve detailed static and dynamic analysis reports for a file, identified by its hash.

The report covers: summary, network behavior, behavioral signatures, static information, dropped file behavior, process behavior, and antivirus scan engine detection results.

For the full ThreatBook API specification, see File Reputation Report.

Input parameters

iocReport

Use this action to check whether an IP address or domain name involved in outbound connections — such as traffic from office networks or production environments — is malicious.

The action determines maliciousness, risk level, and confidence level. It also identifies threat types such as command and control (C2) servers, malware, and Miner Pools, and returns related security event and threat actor tags.

For the full ThreatBook API specification, see Compromise Detection.

Input parameters

ParameterRequiredDescriptionExample
userIdNoThe Alibaba Cloud account ID. Accepts a member account ID managed by the current account. If left blank, the current account ID is used.
cloudUserIdYesYour ThreatBook account ID, obtained when you authorized ThreatBook in Security Center.7f7c*************7fcca4
resourceYesAn IP address or domain name. Query up to 100 resources per batch, separated by commas. To get higher-confidence results for an IP address, include the port (e.g., 0.0.0.0:80).test.com or 0.0.0.0:80

Output parameters

The response is keyed by resource type (ip or domain).

Fields shared by both `ip` and `domain`:

ParameterDescription
is_malicioustrue (malicious) or false (not malicious).
confidence_levelConfidence level of the assessment: high, medium, or low.
severityThreat severity: critical, high, medium, low, or info (no threat).
judgmentsThreat type, based on the Indicator of Compromise (IOC) assessment. Malicious types: Command and Control (C2): Remote Control, Sinkhole C2 (C2 server sinkholed by a security organization), MiningPool (Miner Pool), CoinMiner (private miner pool), Malware. Non-malicious types: Whitelist, Info. For child classes, see all threat types.
tags_classesRelated threat actors or security events (JSON array). Each item includes tags_type (e.g., industry, gangs, virus_family) and tags (e.g., APT, OceanLotus).
permalinkURL of the complete threat intelligence analysis page for the IP address or domain name.

ipReport

Use this action to assess the reputation of an inbound IP address — for example, source IPs from external connections hitting your infrastructure.

The action returns geographic location, ASN information, maliciousness, risk level, and confidence level. It also identifies threat types such as spam, zombies, and scanners, and returns related security event and threat actor tags.

For the full ThreatBook API specification, see IP Reputation.
