Prepare Cynet 360 Credentials

Gather the following information from your Cynet 360 account:
  • Your Cynet 360 URL domain (e.g., if your URL is https://example.api.cynet.com/, extract example)
  • Client ID (from API credentials)
  • Username (for API access)

Verification and testing

After setup, verify the integration is working correctly:
  1. Check Integration Status
    • Navigate to Settings > Systems in ThreatAware
    • Confirm Cynet 360 shows Active status
    • Check the last sync timestamp
  2. Verify Data Collection
    • Wait 5-10 minutes for the initial data poll
    • Check for endpoint threat data in ThreatAware
    • Verify the data matches what you see in Cynet 360
  3. Test Queries
    • Create a test query to filter endpoints with Cynet 360 data
    • Verify the threat data matches your expectations

Troubleshooting

Symptoms: Connection fails with domain validation errorSolutions:
  • Verify you entered only the domain (e.g., yourdomain) without api.cynet.com
  • Check your Cynet 360 URL and extract the correct subdomain
  • Ensure no extra spaces or special characters were included
  • Example: For URL https://example.api.cynet.com/, enter example
Symptoms: Authentication failure or invalid credentials messageSolutions:
  • Verify the Client ID, Username, and Password are correct
  • Ensure the account has sufficient API permissions in Cynet 360
  • Check that credentials were copied without extra spaces
  • Confirm the API account is still active and not locked
  • Test credentials directly in Cynet 360 admin console
Symptoms: Connection succeeds but no endpoint data appearsSolutions:
  • Verify the API account has read permissions in Cynet 360
  • Check that the account is not restricted to specific organisational units
  • Confirm API access is enabled for your account
  • Review Cynet 360 API documentation for required permissions

No Data After 10 Minutes

Symptoms: Integration shows active but no endpoint threat data appearsSolutions:
  • Verify there are endpoints and threat data in Cynet 360
  • Check that the API account has access to the required data
  • Review ThreatAware integration logs for errors
  • Wait up to 30 minutes for initial data sync to complete
  • Contact ThreatAware support if issues persist
Symptoms: Integration fails to connect or times outSolutions:
  • Verify Cynet 360 is accessible and online
  • Check firewall rules allow outbound HTTPS (443) to Cynet 360
  • Test the Cynet 360 URL in a browser to ensure connectivity

Best practices

Credential Management
  • Create a dedicated API account specifically for ThreatAware
  • Document credentials in your organisation’s password manager
  • Rotate credentials annually or per your security policy
  • Monitor for authentication failures in ThreatAware regularly
Security Considerations
  • Use read-only API accounts (never grant write permissions)
  • Limit API account scope to necessary organisational units
  • Review Cynet 360 audit logs periodically to monitor API usage
  • Follow your organisation’s principle of least privilege
