Review IP indicators when folder collaboration begins

Start a targeted IP check when a new collaborator joins a monitored Box folder.

Trigger

New Folder Collaboration Created

Triggers when a new collaboration is created on a specific folder in Box. This trigger monitors a specific Box folder and fires when new collaborations are detected.

Action

Check IP Reputation

Tool to check the reputation of an ip address. use when you need to determine if an ip address has been reported for abusive activity within a specified look-back period. example: checkip(ipaddress='8.8.8.8', maxageindays=90).

Why this helps

A new collaboration can be a useful review point, but threat indicators in the surrounding context may go unchecked.

  • Create a review point when a new folder collaboration is created.
  • Check only IP addresses supplied in the collaboration context or prompt.
  • Direct the result to a chosen report channel.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Box and Abuselpdb once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, then choose New Automation and enter a name and prompt.
  • 3Ask Notis to check the IP addresses supplied in the collaboration context or prompt with Abuselpdb.
  • 4Pick New Folder Collaboration Created as the trigger and choose the Box folder to monitor.
  • 5Choose a report channel and test with one real collaboration event and a supplied IP address.

Questions about this workflow

Does a Box collaboration event provide an IP address?

The listed event detects new collaborations on a folder, but does not state that it provides an IP address. Supply the address in the prompt or available context for a check.

Can this workflow decide whether a collaborator is safe?

It can check supplied IP addresses. The event details do not describe a collaborator IP field, so do not infer one.
