The latest update to SecuReporter introduces Open API support, allowing users to integrate SecuReporter data with third-party software solutions. This feature provides greater flexibility in reporting and analysis, enabling customers to build custom reports and dashboards that suit their specific needs.

Key Features of the SecuReporter Open API

  1. API Token for Authentication:
    • Access to the SecuReporter API requires an API token. The token acts as a key for authenticating requests to the SecuReporter server.
    • To generate an API token, users can go to the SecuReporter server interface, select their device, and create a new API token.
  2. Accessing SecuReporter Data:
    • Once the API token is generated, it can be used with tools like Postman or integrated into custom applications to pull data from SecuReporter.
    • Users must specify the URL of the SecuReporter server and include their API token in requests to access data.
  3. Data Retrieval Limitations:
    • The Open API currently supports fetching data for a single day within the last 31 days.
    • Requests for data exceeding a single day or outside the 31-day range will result in a failed response.
  4. Example Usage:
    • To retrieve data, set up a request in Postman or another API client, include the SecuReporter URL and API token, and specify the date range.
    • For example, if today is November 11, data can be retrieved for dates between October 11 and November 11.

Benefits of SecuReporter Open API

  • Customizable Reporting: Organizations can use API access to pull SecuReporter data into internal systems, enabling custom reporting and analysis.
  • Streamlined Integration: Allows for customized report creation by leveraging SecuReporter’s device information and archived logs..

Summary

The SecuReporter Open API provides users with a powerful new tool for integrating network security data into customized reporting solutions. By enabling data retrieval through API tokens, this feature gives customers the flexibility to create tailor-made reports, visualize historical data, and seamlessly integrate SecuReporter with their broader cybersecurity frameworks.
