misp-dashboard

A dashboard showing live data and statistics from the ZMQ feeds of one or more MISP instances. The dashboard can be used as a real-time situational awareness tool to gather threat intelligence information. The misp-dashboard includes a gamification tool to show the contributions of each organisations and how they are ranked over time. The dashboard can be used for SOC (Security Operation Center), security team or during cyber exercise to keep track of what's going on your various MISP instances.

Features

Live Dashboard

• Possibility to subscribe to multiple ZMQ feeds
• Shows direct contribution made by organisations
• Shows live resolvable posted locations

Geolocalisation Dashboard

• Provides historical geolocalised information to support security teams, CSIRTs or SOC finding threats in their constituency
• Possibility to get geospatial information from specific regions

Contributors Dashboard

Shows:

• The monthly rank of all organisation
• The last organisation that contributed (dynamic updates)
• The contribution level of all organisation
• Each category of contribution per organisation
• The current ranking of the selected organisation (dynamic updates)

Includes:

• Gamification of the platform:
  • Two different levels of ranking with unique icons
  • Exclusive obtainable badges for source code contributors and donator

Users Dashboard

• Shows when and how the platform is used:
  • Login punchcard and overtime
  • Contribution vs login

Trendings Dashboard

• Provides real time information to support security teams, CSIRTs or SOC showing current threats and activity
  • Shows most active events, categories and tags
  • Shows sightings and discussion overtime

Installation

• Launch ./install_dependencies.sh from the MISP-Dashboard directory
• Update the configuration file config.cfg so that it matches your system
  • Fields that you may change:
    • RedisGlobal -> host
    • RedisGlobal -> port
    • RedisGlobal -> zmq_url
    • RedisGlobal -> misp_web_url
    • RedisMap -> pathMaxMindDB

Updating by pulling

• Re-launch ./install_dependencies.sh to fetch new required dependencies
• Re-update your configuration file config.cfg

⚠️ Make sure no zmq python3 scripts are running. They block the update.

Starting the System

⚠️ You do not need to run it as root. Normal privileges are fine.

• Be sure to have a running redis server
  • e.g. redis-server --port 6250
• Activate your virtualenv . ./DASHENV/bin/activate
• Listen to the MISP feed by starting the zmq_subscriber ./zmq_subscriber.py &
• Start the dispatcher to process received messages ./zmq_dispatcher.py &
• Start the Flask server ./server.py &
• Access the interface at http://localhost:8001/

Debug

Debug is fun and gives you more details on what is going on when things fail. Bare in mind running Flask in debug is NOT suitable for production, it will drop you to a Python shell if enabled, to do further digging.

Just before running ./server.py do:

export FLASK_DEBUG=1
export FLASK_APP=server.py
flask run --host=0.0.0.0 --port=8001 # <- Be careful here, this exposes it on ALL ip addresses. Ideally if run locally --host=127.0.0.1

OR, just toggle the debug flag in start_all.sh script.

Happy hacking ;)

zmq_subscriber options

A zmq subscriber. It subscribe to a ZMQ then redispatch it to the MISP-dashboard

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -n ZMQNAME, --name ZMQNAME
                        The ZMQ feed name
  -u ZMQURL, --url ZMQURL
                        The URL to connect to

Deploy in production using mod_wsgi

Install Apache's mod-wsgi for Python3

sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-wsgi-py3

Caveat: If you already have mod-wsgi installed for Python2, it will be replaced!

The following packages will be REMOVED:
  libapache2-mod-wsgi
The following NEW packages will be installed:
  libapache2-mod-wsgi-py3

Configuration file /etc/apache2/sites-available/misp-dashboard.conf assumes that misp-dashboard is cloned into var/www/misp-dashboard. It runs as user misp in this example. Change the permissions to folder and files accordingly.
