Palo Alto Cortex XSOAR integration is available with a paid SecurityScorecard plan. See our plans page for more information about levels of features and access. You must also have a paid Cortex XSOAR account.
Integrate SecurityScorecard with XSOAR (Security Orchestration, Automation, and Response) to receive incidents and build Playbooks based on SecurityScorecard data.
If you use XSOAR, this integration is useful for monitoring and addressing security-related alerts. If you are a SecurityScorecard user, this integration enables you to put essential Scorecard data closer to your security infrastructure.
Set up the integration
Create a bot user with an API token
Note: If you do not have administrative permissions in SecurityScorecard, ask an administrator to create the user and API token for you.
- In SecurityScorecard, click your profile avatar and select My Settings.
- On the Users tab under Admin Settings, click Add User.
- Make the new user a bot so that it will not expire. This prevents a scenario where human users attempt to refresh an expired API token, causing the integration to stop working.
- Click Add.
- Name the bot user and make sure it has read-only access. Then click Add.
- Click Create token for the new bot user.
- Copy the API token and click Done.
Install the integration components

In Cortex XSOAR, select Marketplace in the left pane.

Installation completes in a few seconds.
Configure the integration

Get started using the integration
Shortly after you set up and successfully test integration, Cortex XSOAR starts syncing with SecurityScorecard to fetch and display data.

Note that score changes trigger the creation of incidents to investigate.
