Set Automate

This workflow is designed for security professionals, IT administrators, and DevOps teams who need to manage and automate security assessments using the Qualys platform. It is particularly useful for:

• Security Analysts looking to streamline vulnerability scanning processes.
• Compliance Officers requiring automated reporting for audits.
• IT Managers who want to simplify security operations and enhance team collaboration through Slack.

This workflow addresses the challenges of manually initiating vulnerability scans and generating reports, which can be time-consuming and error-prone. By automating these processes, it:

• Reduces the time taken to execute security assessments, enabling faster threat detection.
• Minimizes human error in data entry and report generation, ensuring accuracy.
• Enhances team communication through real-time updates and responses in Slack, improving overall operational efficiency.

1. Webhook Trigger: The workflow starts with a webhook that listens for incoming requests from Slack.
2. Parse Webhook: It extracts the payload from the incoming request, making the data accessible for further processing.
3. Message Routing: Based on the callback ID, the workflow intelligently routes the message to the appropriate action:
   • If a vulnerability scan is requested, it opens a modal for scan parameters.
   • If a report generation is requested, it opens a modal for report specifics.
4. Handle Submissions: Upon submission from the modals, the workflow captures necessary data and assigns it to required variables for processing.
5. Execute Workflows: It triggers the relevant sub-workflows for either starting a vulnerability scan or creating a report based on the user input.
6. Respond to User: The workflow sends appropriate feedback back to the user in Slack, confirming actions taken or providing additional information.
