Description: # MSTIC Jupyter and Python Security Tools
        
        Microsoft Threat Intelligence Python Security Tools.
        
        The **msticpy** package was initially developed to supported Jupyter Notebook
        authoring for [Azure Sentinel](https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/services/azure-sentinel/).
        However, many of the components can be used in other security scenarios for threat hunting
        and threat investigation. There are three main sub-packages:
        
        - sectools - python security tools to help with data analysis or investigation
        - nbtools - Jupyter-specific UI tools such as widgets and data display
        - data - data interfaces specific to Sentinel/Log Analytics
        
        The package is in an early preview mode so there are likely to be bugs and there are several
        areas that are not yet optimized for performance. 
        We welcome feedback, bug reports and suggestions for new features.
        
        ## Installing
        
        `pip install msticpy`
        
        or for the latest dev build
        
        `pip install git+https://github.com/microsoft/msticpy`
        
        ## Documentation
        
        Full documentation is on [ReadTheDocs](https://msticpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/overview.html)
        
        A brief summary of the functionality is described in the following sections. 
        
        Sample notebooks for many of the modules are in the [docs/notebooks](./docs/notebooks) folder.and accompanying notebooks.
        
        You can also browse through the sample notebooks referenced at the end of this document (especially the *Windows Alert Investigation* notebook)
        to see some of the functionality used in context.

        ## Security Tools Sub-package - `sectools`
        
        This subpackage contains several modules helpful for working on security
        investigations and hunting:
        
        ### base64unpack
        
        Base64 and archive (gz, zip, tar) extractor. Input can either be a single string
        or a specified column of a pandas dataframe. It will try to identify any base64 encoded
        strings and decode them. If the result looks like one of the supported archive types it
        will unpack the contents. The results of each decode/unpack are rechecked for further
        base64 content and will recurse down up to 20 levels (default can be overridden).
        Output is to a decoded string (for single string input) or a DataFrame (for dataframe input).
        
        [Base64Unpack Notebook](./docs/notebooks/Base64Unpack.ipynb)
        
        ### iocextract
        
        Uses a set of builtin regular expressions to look for Indicator of Compromise (IoC) patterns.
        Input can be a single string or a pandas dataframe with one or more columns specified as input.
        
        The following types are built-in:
        
        - IPv4 and IPv6
        - URL
        - DNS domain
        - Hashes (MD5, SHA1, SHA256)
        - Windows file paths
        - Linux file paths (this is kind of noisy because a legal linux file path can have almost any character)
        
        You can modify or add to the regular expressions used at runtime.
        
        Output is a dictionary of matches (for single string input) or a DataFrame (for dataframe input).
        
        [Base64Unpack Notebook](./docs/notebooks/IoCExtract.ipynb)
        
        ### vtlookup
        
        Wrapper class around [Virus Total API](https://www.virustotal.com/en/documentation/public-api/).
        Input can be a single IoC observable or a pandas DataFrame containing multiple observables.
        Processing requires a Virus Total account and API key and processing performance is limited to
        the number of requests per minute for the account type that you have.
        Support IoC Types:
        
        - Filehash
        - URL
        - DNS Domain
        - IPv4 Address
        
        [VTLookup Notebook](./docs/notebooks/VirusTotalLookup.ipynb)
        
        ### geoip
        
        Geographic location lookup for IP addresses.
        This module has two classes for different services:
        
        - GeoLiteLookup - Maxmind Geolite (see <https://www.maxmind.com>)
        - IPStackLookup  - IPStack (see <https://ipstack.com>)
        
        Both services offer a free tier for non-commercial use. However,
        a paid tier will normally get you more accuracy, more detail and
        a higher throughput rate. Maxmind geolite uses a downloadable database,
        while IPStack is an online lookup (API key required).
        
        [GeoIP Lookup Notebook](./docs/notebooks/GeoIPLookups.ipynb)
        
        ### eventcluster
        
        This module is intended to be used to summarize large numbers of
        events into clusters of different patterns. High volume repeating
        events can often make it difficult to see unique and interesting
        items.
        
        The module contains functions to generate clusterable features from
        string data. For example, an administration command that
        does some maintenance on thousands of servers with a commandline such as:
        
        ```bash
        install-update -hostname {host.fqdn} -tmp:/tmp/{GUID}/rollback
        ```
        
        can be collapsed into a single cluster pattern by ignoring the character values
        in the string and using delimiters or tokens to group the values.
        
        This is an unsupervised learning module implemented using SciKit Learn DBScan.
        
        ### outliers
        
        Similar to the eventcluster module but a little bit more experimental (read 'less tested').
        It uses SkLearn Isolation Forest to identify outlier events in a single data set or using
        one data set as training data and another on which to predict outliers.
        
        ### auditdextract
        
        Module to load and decode Linux audit logs. It collapses messages sharing the same
        message ID into single events, decodes hex-encoded data fields and performs some
        event-specific formatting and normalization (e.g. for process start events it will
        re-assemble the process command line arguments into a single string). This is still
        a work-in-progress.
        
        ## Notebook tools sub-package - `nbtools`
        
        This is a collection of display and utility modules
        designed to make working with security data in Jupyter notebooks
        quicker and easier.
        
        - nbwidgets - groups common functionality such as list pickers, time boundary settings, saving and retrieving environment variables into a single line callable command.
        - nbdisplay - functions that implement common display of things like alerts, events in a slightly more consumable way than print()
        - entityschema - implements entity classes (e.g. Host, Account, IPAddress) used in Log Analytics alerts and in many of these modules. Each entity encaspulates one or more properties related to the entity.
        
        [Notebooks Tools](./docs/notebooks/NotebookWidgets.ipynb)
        
        ## Data sub-package - `data`
        
        These components are currently still part of the nbtools sub-package but will be
        refactored to separate them into their own package.
        
        - query manager - collection of modules that implement common kql/Log Analytics queries using KqlMagic
        - security_alert and security_event - encapsulation classes for alerts and events. Each has a standard 'entities' property reflecting the entities found in the alert or event. These can also be used as meta-parameters for many of the queries. For example the query: `qry.list_host_logons(provs==[query_times, alert])` will extract the value for the `hostname` query parameter from the alert.
