Using Slack connector in Automation
With Vulcan, you can automate sending Slack messages in your playbook.
Navigate to the Automation, click on Create new Playbook.
Name your playbook. For example: “Remediate Rapid7”
Add a description to your Playbook (optional)
Choose your Playbook’s trigger (Vulnerabilities to fix)
Vulnerability from source – The connector from which we pull assets. For example: Vulnerabilities from source Rapid7.
Vulnerability where – The rule which the playbook will be attached by. For example: Vulnerability where CVSS Score is greater than 7.
On assets where – The asset’s property you wish to be automated. For example: On assets where OS is Windows.
In this example, the vulnerability that will be fixed is any vulnerability with CVSS score higher than 7, which was found on assets with Windows OS, and that was discovered by Rapid7 connector.
Under Remediation actions choose Post to Slack channel action
