A prominent use case for filaments is alert post-processing. This would allow any filament defining the
on_next_alert
function to react on alert arrival, either generated by the detection engine or YARA scanner.If the filament has the definition of the
on_next_alert(alert)
function, each time an alert is triggered, the filament framework will invoke the former function. The first parameter of this function contains the alert details such as:detection
,yara
, etc.)Detection rules will define a new action to specify the filament to execute and an optional args given to the Python VM.
Yara scanner must specify the list of filaments to execute when the rule matches. Additionally, the Yara rule can declare the
filament
metadata with the name of the filament to execute upon rule firing.The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
