Qualys API Best Practices Series

The example code from the Qualys API Best Practices Series is being hosted here to help customers with an example blueprint to automate transformation of data into their corporate data systems, further enhancing the visibility of outlier systems that are vulnerable.

This example code has been enhanced with some exception processing, logging, and a single point of execution creating an operational context within which to test/develop the code so customers can build automation into their remediation program.

Workflow Diagram

The workflow depicts the flow of etl for host list detection. The key output is the sqlite database that is ready for distribution

• qetl_manage_user -u [userdir] -e etl_host_list_detection -d [datetime] - Resulting sqlite database ready for distribution.

Component Diagram

The component diagram depicts major system interoperability components that deliver data into the enterprise.

Component	Color	Purpose
Execution Environment	Blue	Host and Cloud where this application operates
Application	Grey	Application context to identify Local Docker, Python Application, Host and/or Filesystems
Input	Orange	Qualys data consumed by application
Execution	Green	Execution ETL of Qualys Data through various methods. (The Python Execution Environment on Docker or Traditional Host)
Data	Yellow	Host Data Folders that separate Application, and Subscription Data Users along with distribution pipelines representing the distribution of data to external sources, Cloud, Client, Other
Future	Black	TBD Future State Components such as GraphQL Server.

Blueprint

Customer have many options for Qualys API integration today. Some customers realize they need to develop their own internal code to transform complex data, create custom metrics, create custom reports or ensure data is more accessible within their organizations for metrics and custom reporting.

As a result, Qualys decided on creating the API Best Practices Series to jumpstart clients with a blueprint of example code to help them automate delivery of complex data into their enterprise.

The overarching goal is to simplify our customers security stack and help them significantly reduce cost and complexity.

Key Goals and Solutions of this series are:

Goal	Solution
Automate Vulnerability Data accessibility, transformation of complex data for analysis	JSON, CSV, SQLite Database Formats of Qualys Data readily accessible to Analytical BI Tools for on-demand analysis or for downstream loading into Enterprise Data Storage.
A single query interface to Qualys data	TBD Future GraphQL Server interface to data.
Automate Capturing Vulnerability Data into corporate processes	Blueprint of example code customers can customize to enhance their internal automation "API-First" strategy.
Automate Distribution of Vulnerability Data to Cloud Providers	Optional Distribution methods into cloud systems such as Amazon S3 Bucket
Automate Application Enhancements and Delivery	Docker application instance for reliable CI/CD delivery of enhancements, as well as traditional host execution on Linux Platforms.
Provide Execution Flexibility, Work Load Management, Password Security	Blueprint for enterprise jobstream execution (Ex. Autosys), password vaults (Ex. Hashicorp), or simple command line execution from a Virtual Machine instance of Ubuntu running on a laptop.
Provide Continous Vulnerability Data Pipeline	Blueprint for data transformation pipeline from Qualys to Enterprise Data Stores in various formats ( JSON, CSV, SQLite Database )

Host List Tag Requirements

To operate the host list API, optionally you can create 4 tags to isolate different types of data to be downloaded via API. There is an example script to help create the tags in your subscription.
See etld_templates/etld_create_host_list_extract_cloud_server_tags.py for example of creating tags through API.

Optional First Time Setup Host List Tags

Optional custom tags are qetl-all-hosts, qetl-all-ec2, qetl-all-gcp, qetl-all-azure.

Application Monitoring

• To monitor the application for issues, the logging format includes a logging level.
• Monitoring for ERROR will help identify issues and tend to the overall health of the applicaiton operation.

Securing Your Application in the Data Center

Follow your corporate procedures for securing your application. A key recommendation is to use a password vault or remote invocation method that passes the credentials at run time so the password isn't stored on the system.

Password Vault

Qualys recommends customers move to a password vault of their chosing to operate this applications credentials. By creating functions to obtain credentials from your corporations password vault, you can improve the security of your application by separating the password from the machine.

One way customers can do this is through a work load management solution, where the external work load management system ( Ex. Autosys ) schedules jobs passing the required keys to this application at runtime. This eliminates the need to store credentials locally on your system.

If you are unfamiliar with password vaults, here is one example from Hashicorp.

• Hashicorp Products Vault
• Hashicorp Getting Started

    usage:        qetl_setup_python_venv [/path/to/dir]

    description:

        Create a python3 virtual environment, and install the qualysetl application into that environment for usage.
        This isolates the qualysetl application dependencies to the python3 virtual environment.

            If you plan to setup your python virtual environment outside of your default home directory,
            please ensure you have authorization to create directories in the target location.

    examples:
            1) qetl_setup_python_venv /opt/qetl
               - will work if you pre-create /opt/qetl as you have to be root to write to /opt
            2) qetl_setup_python_venv /usr/local
               - will result in /usr/local/opt/qetl if you have authorization to write to /usr/local
            3) qetl_setup_python_venv
               - Default will be your /home/qualysetl/opt/qetl directory.


Create qetl Python Environment? /opt/qetl/qetl_venv

   Success! Your python virtual environment for qetl is: /opt/qetl/qetl_venv

   Your python3 venv separates your base python installation from the qetl python requirements
   and is your entry to executing the qetl_manage_user application.  Your base qetl installation has
   moved to your python virtual environment: /opt/qetl/qetl_venv

   !!! save these commands as they are your entry to run the qetl application
   
       1) source /opt/qetl/qetl_venv/bin/activate
       2) /opt/qetl/qetl_venv/bin/qetl_manage_user ( Your entry point to operating qualysetl ) 

   Next steps:

    Enter your python3 virtual environment and begin testing qualys connectivity.

       1) source /opt/qetl/qetl_venv/bin/activate
       2) /opt/qetl/qetl_venv/bin/qetl_manage_user
