Real-time TheHive alerts: automate your incident response
Swiftask connects your data sources to TheHive. Receive critical notifications in real time and accelerate incident handling.
Result:
Drastically reduce MTTR (Mean Time To Respond) and free your analysts from manual data entry.

The hidden cost of manual TheHive alert management
In security operations centers, every second counts. Yet, manual case creation in TheHive slows down threat response. Alerts fall into forgotten mailboxes or require human intervention to be qualified, creating a critical bottleneck.
Main negative impacts:
Increased operational latency
The delay between threat detection and case creation in TheHive leaves a window of opportunity for attackers.
Analyst fatigue
Processing repetitive alerts manually causes unnecessary cognitive load and increases the risk of human error.
Lack of unified context
Without automation, alerts often arrive fragmented, making incident correlation slow and complex.
Swiftask deploys AI agents that monitor your detection tools and automatically create qualified cases in TheHive in real time. You automate initial qualification and guarantee immediate reactivity.
BEFORE / AFTER
What changes with Swiftask
Traditional manual response
A monitoring tool detects an anomaly. The analyst gets an email, analyzes it, logs into TheHive, creates a new case, copies info, then assigns it. This takes several minutes, or even hours.
Automation with Swiftask
As soon as an anomaly is detected, the Swiftask AI agent extracts data, enriches the context, and instantly creates the case in TheHive. The security team gets an immediate notification with all necessary info.
Deploy your TheHive automation in 4 steps
1
STEP 1 : Define alert criteria
Configure the conditions in Swiftask that should trigger a notification to TheHive.
2
STEP 2 : Connect TheHive via API
Integrate TheHive with your Swiftask agent using a secure API key to enable automatic case creation.
3
STEP 3 : Set up AI enrichment
Configure the agent to analyze logs, extract IOCs, and structure data before sending.
4
STEP 4 : Activate and monitor
Launch the automation and track the flow of created cases directly from your Swiftask dashboard.
Automation capabilities for your SOC
The AI agent analyzes the source alert metadata to prioritize cases created in TheHive based on severity.
- Target connector: The agent performs the right actions in thehive based on event context.
- Automated actions: Automatic case creation, dynamic tag addition, analyst assignment, and automatic enrichment with external data.
- Native governance: Swiftask ensures full traceability of every action taken toward TheHive to meet audit requirements.
Each action is contextualized and executed automatically at the right time.
Each Swiftask agent uses a dedicated identity (e.g. agent-thehive@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.
