The Associations Tab

The Associations tab of an object’s Details screen provides options for filtering associated objects, adding associations, and removing associations. Depending on which Details screen version you are viewing, this tab will feature additional functionality. The Associations tab on the new Details screen allows you to view and manage potential associations for an object and create associations automatically using queries written in ThreatConnect Query Language (TQL), and the Associations tab on the legacy Details screen allows you to export associated Indicators.

New Details Screen View

Figure 1 shows the Associations tab of the new Details screen for the APT28 Intrusion Set Group. This tab displays separate cards containing Intelligence Requirements (IRs), Groups, Indicators, Victim Assets, Artifacts, and Cases associated to the object whose Details screen you are viewing (i.e., the primary object), with the total number of associated objects displayed to the right of the tab’s name. It also displays cards containing Cases and, for Groups only, Artifacts suggested as associations that you may want to add to the primary object. If viewing a Group’s Details screen, a card containing TQL queries added to the Group for TQL associations will also be displayed.

You can collapse and expand all cards on the Associations tab by clicking the Collapse All or Expand All button, respectively, above the Groups card. By default, all cards are expanded.

Each card displays its contents in a paginated table. To control which table columns are displayed on the table, click the Select columnsbutton at the top right of the card. To filter objects displayed in a table, use the search bar and Filtersmenu at the top left of the card.

Note

You cannot hide columns that are grayed out in the menu displayed when you click the Select columnsbutton.

TQL Queries

The TQL Queries card, available for Groups only, displays all TQL queries used to create associations for the Group. Queries added to a Group will run automatically based on a schedule configured by your System Administrator (the default schedule is every night at midnight), but you may also run a query manually from the TQL Queries card.

Each time a query added to a Group runs, it creates associations between the Group and objects returned by the query that are not associated to the Group. If cross-owner associations are enabled on your ThreatConnect instance, objects in any owner to which you have access will be associated to the Group; otherwise, only objects in your Organization will be associated to the Group. You may view Groups and Indicators associated to a Group via a TQL query on the Groups and Indicators cards, respectively, of the Associations tab.

The table displayed on the TQL Queries card contains the following columns:

• Name: This column displays the query’s name. To view the query itself, click the arrow to the left of its name. To view the results of the query on the Browse screen in a new browser tab, click View query in browse.
• Type: This column displays the query’s type, which corresponds to the type of objects the query will associate to the Group. At this time, you can add only one Group query and one Indicator query to a single Group object.
• Status: This column displays the query’s status (Enabled or Disabled). If the query has a Disabled status,andicons will be displayed to the left and right, respectively, of the status. To view a tooltip explaining why the query was disabled, hover over one of these icons.

Adding a TQL Query

Click the Add Querybutton at the upper-right corner of the card and then select Group Query or Indicator Query to add a Group or Indicator query, respectively, to the Group. Based on the type of query selected, the Add Group TQL Query (Figure 2) or Add Indicator TQL Query window will be displayed with the Existing Queries option selected, showing all saved TQL queries.

Note

Note: If a Group or Indicator query has been added to the Group, then the Group Query or Indicator Query option, respectively, will be grayed out. Similarly, if the maximum number of queries that can be added to the Group has been reached, then the Add Querybutton will be grayed out.

• Select the query to add to the Group. To view the query itself, click the arrow to the left of its name. To view the results of the query on the Browse screen in a new browser tab, click View query in browse.
• Click the Add Query button. The selected query will be displayed on the TQL Queries card.

To create a new Group or Indicator query, select New Query at the top left of the Add Group TQL Query or Add Indicator TQL Query window, respectively. The window will now display options for creating a new query (Figure 3).

• Query Name: Enter a name for the query.
• TQL Type: The type of object (Group or Indicator) that the query will associate to the Group. The query’s type is based on the option you selected after clicking the Add Querybutton and cannot be changed.
• Query: Enter the query written in TQL. To view a list of TQL operators and parameters in a new browser tab, click the View Full List of Query Commandslink above the Query text box.
  Important

• The Artifact matches the summary and type of an Indicator associated to the Group (e.g., an Artifact whose type is Host and summary is bad.com will be suggested as an association for a Group associated to the bad.com Host Indicator). Artifacts that meet this condition will be suggested as associations only if your System Administrator set the potential associations system setting to Matched or Both.
• The Artifact is associated to an Indicator associated to the Group. Artifacts that meet this condition will be suggested as associations only if your System Administrator set the potential associations system setting to Associated or Both.

When reviewing potential Artifact associations, you can click on the name of the Artifact’s Case to investigate both items further and decide whether to associate the Artifact to the Group.

Viewing Potentially Associated Cases

The Cases sub-card, available for Groups and Indicators, displays Cases that meet one or both of the following conditions, depending on the object’s type and how your System Administrator configured potential associations for your ThreatConnect instance:

• Groups
  • The Case contains an Artifact that has its Use to potentially associate cases. checkbox selected and matches the summary and type of an Indicator associated to the Group (e.g., a Case that contains an Artifact whose type is Host and summary is bad.com will be suggested as an association for a Group associated to the bad.com Host Indicator). Cases that meet this condition will be suggested as associations only if your System Administrator set the potential associations system setting to Matched or Both.
  • The Case is associated to an Indicator associated to the Group. Cases that meet this condition will be suggested as associations only if your System Administrator set the potential associations system setting to Associated or Both.
• Indicators
  • The Case contains an Artifact that has its Use to potentially associate cases. checkbox selected and matches the summary and type of the Indicator you are viewing (e.g., a Case that contains an Artifact whose type is Host and summary is bad.com will be suggested as an association for the bad.com Host Indicator). Cases that meet this condition will be suggested as associations only if your System Administrator set the potential associations system setting to Matched or Both.
  • The Case is associated to a Group associated to the Indicator. Cases that meet this condition will be suggested as associations only if your System Administrator set the potential associations system setting to Associated or Both.

Creating an Association

To associate an Artifact or Case suggested as a potential association to the primary object, click the Add Associationbutton in the rightmost column for the Artifact or Case. After the Artifact or Case is added as an association, it will be removed from the Potential Associations card.

Note

The Add Associationbutton is displayed for Indicators and Groups in an Organization only. To associate a potentially associated Case to an Indicator or Group in a Community or Source, navigate to the Case’s Potential Associations card and create the association from there. To associate a potentially associated Artifact to a Group in a Community or Source, navigate to the Case containing the Artifact, expand the Artifact to view its details, and create the association from the Associated Groups section.

Legacy Details Screen View

Figure 14 shows the Associations tab of the legacy Details screen for the superbadguy.com Host Indicator. In addition to being able to filter associated objects and add and remove associations, you can export associated objects to a CSV file on the Associations tab of the legacy Details screen.

Viewing and Filtering Associations

The associated objects provided in the table of the Associations tab are classified by type according to the icon menus in the center. Choosing an item from each menu (e.g., Signatures from the Documents menu) displays only associated objects of that type. Clicking on the menu itself (i.e., clicking on the icon without selecting an item from its menu) displays associated objects of all of the types listed in that menu, as in Figure 14, which lists all Indicators associated with the primary Indicator, including custom Indicator-to-Indicator associations, Indicators that are associated to the primary Indicator by a DNS resolution or a File action (File Archive, File Drop, or File Traffic), and Indicators that are associated to the primary Indicator via a shared Group.

The table columns depend on the type of primary object and which menu or menu item has been selected. For example, for a primary Indicator object, any Indicators table that is populated with at least one entry has a column with Detailsicons that, when clicked, provide information about the Group object to which both Indicators (the primary Indicator and the associated Indicator) are associated and options to dissociate the primary Indicator from the Group (and therefore from all Indicators associated with the Group). For a primary Group object, the Indicators tables do not have this icon, but rather a Dissociate link that, when clicked, immediately (i.e., without a request for confirmation) dissociates the Group from the Indicator. As another example, the Reports and Signatures tables have Intel Rating (Thumbs Up and Thumbs Down) columns.

For a primary Indicator object, the Indicators tables will display a Relation Type menu at the top right of the table, as in Figure 14. This menu allows you to filter the Indicators shown by type of association (i.e., custom Indicator-to-Indicator association, DNS resolution, type of File action, or type of Group through which the Indicator-to-Group-to-Indicator first-level association exists).

Adding an Association

1. Click the +NEW ASSOCIATION button in Figure 14. The Select an Association window will be displayed (Figure 15).

   

    

2. Use the Select Type dropdown menu to select the association type to create. Objects that qualify for this association type will be displayed in the table. For example, in Figure 16, Adversary was selected.

   

    

3. Select the Indicator(s) or Group(s) to associate to the primary object. If desired, use the Filter box to filter Indicators or Groups displayed in the table.
   Important

   When searching for file hashes, the Filter box performs a case-sensitive search. For example, a search for the file hash “0413F832D8161187172AEF7A769586515F969479” will not return “0413f832d8161187172aef7a769586515f969479” as a result.
4. Click the SAVE button.
   Note

   You can also add associations from both the graph view and table view of the Associations card on the Overview tab of the legacy Details screen.

Exporting Associated Objects

Click on the EXPORT dropdown menu at the lower-left corner of the screen (Figure 14) and select the ThreatConnect CSV option. The Export Data window will be displayed (Figure 17).

• Clear the checkbox(es) for any field(s) that should not be included in the CSV file.
• Click the EXPORT button. The CSV file will download to your computer.
