Customizations

A customization is a tool within the playbook toolkit that can act upon, supplement or contain data. Customizations include functions, message destinations, tasks, notes, artifacts, and scripts.

The Orchestration & Automation has a number of customizations that you can use to create your playbook:
  • Incident Types. Allows you to classify the various types of incidents your team will address.
  • Phases. Defines each stage of an incident response, essentially capturing the general intent of the response action.
  • Tasks. Defines all the tasks that may need to be performed by end users, such as an analyst or incident responder. Tasks can be in the form of a set of instructions or advisories or an action that a responder selects.
  • Layouts. Layouts visually present the incident.
  • Fields and Data Tables. Fields capture data points for analysis review and to produce metrics. Data tables capture and organize field values in a spreadsheet table format.
  • Scripts. Allows you to implement more complex business logic using Python. Scripts can be triggered by playbooks, rules or workflows.
  • Functions. A Resilient object that sends data to a remote function processor through a message destination. The function processor performs an activity then returns the results.
  • Workflows. Graphically designed set of activities that allows you to create a complex set of operations.
  • Rules. Define a set of activities that are triggered when conditions are met. An activity is an operation that the rule executes when the appropriate conditions are satisfied.
