Wiz has recently expanded its Slack integration, introducing two major upgrades aimed at improving security collaboration. The new features include a bi-directional Slack app and a Slack AI App for Wiz, enabling teams to investigate, assign, and resolve security issues directly within Slack. This integration allows for faster threat detection and response, improved collaboration, and instant AI-driven security insights.
You Should Know:
To leverage these new features, here are some practical steps and commands you can use:
1. Setting Up Wiz Slack Integration:
- Navigate to the Wiz portal and access the integration settings.
- Follow the prompts to connect your Slack workspace.
- Use the following command to verify the integration status:
wiz integration status --slack
2. Investigating Threats in Slack:
- Once integrated, you can use Slack commands to interact with Wiz:
/wiz investigate <issue_id>
- This command will pull up the relevant threat details in a Slack thread for team discussion.
3. Assigning Security Issues:
- Assign issues to team members directly from Slack:
/wiz assign <issue_id> @username
- This ensures that the right person is notified and can take immediate action.
4. Using Slack AI for Security Insights:
- Ask Wiz security-related questions directly in Slack:
/wiz ask "What are the latest vulnerabilities affecting our cloud infrastructure?"
- The AI will provide instant answers, helping you stay informed without leaving Slack.
5. Automating Threat Response:
- Set up automated workflows to handle common threats:
wiz automation create --trigger "high_severity" --action "notify_slack @security-team"
- This command automates notifications to the security team when high-severity threats are detected.
