About This Workflow
Overview
This n8n workflow streamlines security operations by allowing users to trigger Qualys vulnerability scans and generate reports directly through Slack. The workflow begins by capturing a Slack trigger event via a webhook. It then presents interactive modals to the user, allowing them to specify scan details like report templates, titles, and output formats, or to initiate a new vulnerability scan. Based on user input, the workflow executes predefined Qualys workflows to perform the scan or generate the report.
This automation is particularly useful for security teams who want to integrate their security scanning tools with their communication platform, reducing context switching and improving response times.
Key Features
- Initiate Qualys vulnerability scans directly from Slack.
- Generate detailed security reports in various formats (PDF, HTML, CSV).
- Utilize Slack's interactive modals for user-friendly input of scan parameters.
- Dynamically select report templates and specify custom report titles.
- Leverage existing Qualys workflows for scan execution and report generation.
How To Use
- Set up the n8n workflow: Configure the webhook node to receive trigger events from Slack.
- Configure Slack modals: Customize the
