πŸ””DING! DING!πŸ”” Dear community, we are so proud to announce that OpenCTI version 5.4.0 has been released πŸ’₯! This was a huge joint effort from the brand new Filigran engineering team as well as all community contributors 🍻. Thank you everyone for your continuous efforts to make OpenCTI the world leading threat intelligence platform πŸ™!

This milestone contains important new features but also the implementation of more systematic development best practices (TypeScript, pure functions, etc.) 🧩 that will allow us to speed-up future milestones in the months and years to come πŸš€.

First of all, OpenCTI 5.4.0 brings long-awaited features 🎁:

  • bulk search of entities and observables in the platform πŸ”;
  • customization of workflow statuses for all types of entity πŸ› οΈ;
  • introduce an analyst workbench to modelize entities and relationships massively and easily before create the knowledge in the platform πŸ‘©β€πŸ’»;
  • new inference rules to propagate reports to parent entities (sectors / locations) πŸ—ΊοΈ;
  • performances improvement due to the new way to validate indicators syntax (creation of indicators speed x10) πŸš…;
  • it is now possible to deny connectors from creating new labels and keep a set of pre-defined labels in the platform ✨;
  • country flags for IPs when located-at relationship is set to a specific country 🏴;
  • new specific capabilities for notes and opinions to allow feedback even from read-only users ✍️;
  • implement the STIX 2.1 "Grouping" entity type to allow information clustering without creating a report when it is not relevant πŸ“¦;
  • Japanese translation, OpenTelemetry, investigation improvements and much more πŸ’...

Last but not least, this release introduces a major new data segregation and sharing capability by organization 🏒. This allows administrators to associate users to organizations (organizations can belong to parent organizations as well) and to distribute knowledge across one or multiple organizations in the platform πŸ”“.

It is also possible to set a default organization for the whole platform to restrict all data and starting to share progressively information 🌎. A demonstration video will be published to better explain this new feature which will help organizations to open access to third-parties / constituents with full confidence about the confidentiality of the data πŸ₯³.

⚠️ All internal-export-file connectors should now be launched with a user which has the Administrator role, because they now impersonate the user requesting the export to prevent data leak.

⚠️ All technical creators (users) of existing entities are no longer mapped on the history and then are displayed as "SYSTEM". New entities / relationships will be created with the correct creator fully modelized. If you would like to recover the creators information of your existing data, you can launch a background task (based on the history) on the selected entities (or all of them) using the mass operations toolbar Update => Replace => Creator.

βš™οΈ When using the organization segregation capability, it is recommended to enable the inference rule ORGANIZATION PROPAGATION VIA PARTICIPATION so it will propagate if a user A participates in organization B and organization B is part of organization C, then the user A also participates in organization C.

Since the last release, minio implements breaking change. If you decide to upgrade minio, a procedure must be applied. Please read https://min.io/docs/minio/linux/operations/install-deploy-manage/migrate-fs-gateway.html
