Perplexity

Triage alerts inside Claude Desktop

Tracking down new alerts happens directly in your chat interface. Your agent runs `list_detections` to pull MITRE ATT&CK mappings straight into the conversation. You read the exact severity and hostname details without leaving your current window. Taking action happens just as fast. The AI evaluates the telemetry and executes `update_detection` to append triage comments and change the status. This MCP Server turns your daily workspace into a live security operations center.

Isolate compromised endpoints instantly

Finding a specific device happens instantly when a suspicious binary pops up. Claude uses `search_hosts` to grab the specific device inventory details and confirm the target identity. You verify the hostname right in the chat before making a move. Instead of logging into the Falcon console, you tell the AI to cut the network connection. It triggers `contain_device` to quarantine the machine immediately. You stop lateral movement while you figure out what went wrong.

Manage custom threat indicators

Managing custom threat indicators takes seconds instead of minutes. You paste a malicious SHA256 hash or domain into Claude, and it fires off `create_ioc`. The indicator goes live across your endpoints before the attacker can pivot. You also need visibility into existing risks. Your agent calls `list_iocs` to audit current blocks, or grabs `list_vulnerabilities` to check which hosts still need patching. Everything happens through plain English commands to this MCP Server.

Yes, it can trigger network containment. You tell the chat to lock down a specific hostname, and it executes the isolation command. The AI can also lift that containment later.

The server pulls that exact mapping for you. When you query detections, the response includes the specific MITRE techniques involved. You see the attacker's tactics right in your chat window.

You use standard FQL filters. The agent can filter incidents by state, severity, assignee, or specific date ranges.

Vinkius processes your device inventory, IP addresses, and vulnerability data inside an ephemeral V8 Isolate Sandbox. The execution environment spins up just for your request and dies immediately after sending the response. No hostnames or SHA256 hashes ever touch persistent storage.
