Swiftask automates CIRCL Hash Lookup queries to enrich your logs and generate detailed security reports in real-time.
Result:
Speed up incident response and free your analysts from repetitive search tasks.
Manual handling of security indicators
Processing security alerts often requires manually checking thousands of hashes against external databases like CIRCL. This manual approach creates bottlenecks, increases Mean Time To Detect (MTTD), and causes analyst fatigue.
Main negative impacts:
With Swiftask, connect your monitoring tools to CIRCL Hash Lookup. Every detected hash is automatically analyzed, enriched, and compiled into a ready-to-use security report.
BEFORE / AFTER
What changes with Swiftask
Traditional manual analysis
An analyst receives an alert, manually extracts hashes, queries them one by one on CIRCL, records results in a spreadsheet, and writes a summary report. This process takes hours.
Swiftask automated workflow
As soon as an alert is detected, Swiftask automatically queries CIRCL Hash Lookup, cross-references results with internal policies, and instantly generates a comprehensive report for the team.
Setting up your automated reports
STEP 1 : Define triggers
Configure Swiftask to monitor your log streams or SIEM alerts to automatically extract hashes.
STEP 2 : CIRCL integration
Enable the CIRCL Hash Lookup connector in Swiftask to automate search queries.
STEP 3 : Data processing
Set scoring rules to transform raw CIRCL results into clear, actionable security insights.
STEP 4 : Report distribution
Schedule automatic delivery of summary reports to your collaboration tools (Teams, Slack) or via email.
Advanced automation features
The agent analyzes reputation, detection frequency, and context associated with every hash found in the CIRCL database.
Each action is contextualized and executed automatically at the right time.
Each Swiftask agent uses a dedicated identity (e.g. agent-circl-hash-lookup@swiftask.ai ). You keep full visibility on every action and every sent message.
Key takeaway: The agent automates repetitive decisions and leaves high-value actions to your teams.
