Trapster

Overview

Trapster deploys honeypots across your network to detect lateral movements, malicious scans, and insider threats. These digital decoys have no legitimate use, so any interaction immediately signals suspicious activity. With near-zero false positives and instant alerts, security teams can quickly identify and investigate potential intrusions. You also receive alerts for any attempted connection to the honeypots as well as the use of honeytokens or breadcrumbs, helping reduce overall detection time.

Warning

Important note - This format is currently in beta. We highly value your feedback to improve its performance.

Vendor: Ballpoint
Supported environment: SaaS
Detection based on: Alert
Supported application or feature: Honeypot alerts (lateral movement, scans, honeytokens, breadcrumbs, threats)

Configure

This setup guide describes how to forward events from Trapster to Sekoia.io via webhook.

Create an intake

Go to the intake page.
Click + New Intake.
Select the format Trapster.
Copy the intake key created(you will need it in the next step).

Configure Trapster

Log in to your Trapster console.
Navigate to Settings.
Select Webhooks.
Click + Add to create a new webhook.
Choose Sekoia as the webhook type.
Enter a name for the webhook.
Paste the Intake Key (Token) copied from Sekoia.io.
Click save to apply the configuration.

Save your configuration

Test the integration by clicking on the three-dot menu next to the webhook you created and then Send test.

Test your webhook

Your events will then be available on the Events page.

Raw Events Samples

In this section, you will find examples of raw logs as generated natively by the source. These examples are provided to help integrators understand the data format before ingestion into Sekoia.io. It is crucial for setting up the correct parsing stages and ensuring that all relevant information is captured.

Detection section

The following section provides information for those who wish to learn more about the detection capabilities enabled by collecting this intake. It includes details about the built-in rule catalog, event categories, and ECS fields extracted from raw events. This is essential for users aiming to create custom detection rules, perform hunting activities, or pivot in the events page.

No related built-in rules was found. This message is automatically generated.

Event Categories

The following table lists the data source offered by this integration.

Data Source	Description
`Network intrusion detection system`	None

In details, the following table denotes the type of events produced by this integration.

Name	Values
Kind	`alert`
Category	`host`, `intrusion_detection`
Type	`device`, `info`

Transformed Events Samples after Ingestion

This section demonstrates how the raw logs will be transformed by our parsers. It shows the extracted fields that will be available for use in the built-in detection rules and hunting activities in the events page. Understanding these transformations is essential for analysts to create effective detection mechanisms with custom detection rules and to leverage the full potential of the collected data.
