For example, the SOC may ask its constituency to send suspicious email reports to a specific mailbox that a script may poll at regular intervals. When a new email is received, the script will parse it then call TheHive4py to create the case in TheHive. Analysts will be informed that a new case has been created through TheHive's Flow and start their investigation right away. +TheHive4py allows analysts to create cases out of different sources such as email. For example, a SOC may ask its constituency to send suspicious email reports to a specific mailbox that a script polls at regular intervals. When a new email is received, the script parses it then calls TheHive4py to create a corresponding case in TheHive. Once the case has been created, SOC analysts will get a notification thanks to TheHive's Flow so they can start investigating the new case. # Caution - WIP -TheHive4py is a work-in-progress. TheHive authors use it on a regular basis and features will be added as the need arise. - -Please note that a new version of TheHive will be released by the end of April / beginning of May 2017 and it will feature a Scala connector framework to handle alerts, which translate to cases if analysts deem them worth investigating, in a more generic and resilient fashion. The connector framework will allow SOCs and CERTs to interface TheHive with SIEMs, email and other services. - -When the connector framework is published, TheHive authors may not maintain TheHive4py on the long run but since it is a FOSS, the community can fork it and enhance it the way they see fit. Pull requests will be reviewed by TheHive core team and accepted if they are OK. +TheHive4py is a work in progress. It is considered *beta* software though we are using it on a regular basis for the use case outlined above. The client doesn't leverage yet the richness of TheHive's REST API (which is [partially documented](https://github.com/CERT-BDF/TheHive/wiki/API%20documentation)) but it should be sufficient in most situations. If not, please feel free to contribute and submit pull requests or [request missing features](https://github.com/CERT-BDF/TheHive4py/issues/new) if you are not comfortable with Python. # Use It On macOS and Linux, type:
