Cybereason Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) Setup for Workbench

Cybereason REST APIs use an auth token to make authorized calls to the API. Expel uses Cybereason REST APIs to access resources through URI paths. You need to generate an API key and an Application key.

Step 1: Generate User Credentials

To integrate the technology with Workbench, you need to create secure credentials to the API.

1. In the Cybereason UI, navigate to the User screen.

2. Click Create New User. The Create New User screen appears.

3. Enter the required details:

   • Username - enter an email address. Make note of this for later use.

   • Password - enter a password. Make note of this for later use.

   • Change password on next login - do NOT select this.

   • Enable Two Factor Authentication (TFA) - do NOT select this.

   • Custom roles - select Analyst and L3.

   • Predefined roles - select API User.

4. Click Add User.

Step 2: Add Cybereason EDR as a Security Device in Workbench

Now that you have the correct access configured and noted the credentials, you can integrate your tech with Workbench.

1. Log in to Workbench.

2. In the side menu, navigate to Organization Settings > Security Devices.

3. Select Add Security Device.

4. Search for and select Cybereason EDR.

5. Complete the fields as follows:

   • Name - enter a name that might help you more easily identify this integration, such as “CompanyName Cybereason EDR”; this name will display in Workbench under the Name column, and is a text string that you can filter on.

   • Location - enter the location of your integration, for example “cloud.” This is also a text string that you can filter on, so we recommend being consistent with location naming across your Expel integrations.

   • Username - enter the username created in Step 1.

   • Password - enter the password created in Step 1.

   • Server URL - enter the Cybereason device address.

   
6. Click Save.

7. On the console access screen, select Set up now. Expel requires console access to allow analysts to perform investigation and triage. Without this additional level of information, alerts cannot be verified by our analysts and an investigation cannot be initiated. For more information, see Why Expel Asks for Console Access.

8. In the Console Login area, enter these details:

• Console URL - enter the console URL from the Server address in the Connection Settings area above. At the end of the URL, type /login.

• Username - enter the user name you created previously.

• Password - enter the password you created previously.

• Two-factor secret key (32-character code) - depending on how your organization enforces log-ins, this field may not apply to you. In these cases, you can leave it blank. This field is optional and if you have questions or concerns, reach out to your Customer Success Manager (CSM) or to support.

1. Click Save.

Your device should be created successfully within a few seconds. A few reminders:

• After your connection is healthy, it will take some time for your device to begin polling and receiving data.

• To check on the status, select the downward arrow for your device in the first column and choose View details.

• Polling will happen first; data will be received after that. You must refresh the page to see updates.

• If your device does not begin polling within 15 minutes, and does not begin receiving data within 30 minutes, contact our support team for help.

• To check if alerts are coming through, navigate to Dashboards > Alert Analysis. Scroll to the device you want to check, and select the Expel Alerts tab to reveal more alert information. It can take 36 to 72 hours for alerts to appear after setup, as we tune your device.
