How to Sync Intruder to AWS Datalake Manually

Before moving data, determine the types of data you need to transfer, the frequency of transfers, and the data format. This step ensures that you understand your data structure and helps in defining the schema for the data lake.

Log into your AWS Management Console and set up the necessary environment. This includes creating an Amazon S3 bucket where your data will be stored, and configuring AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) roles and policies to define who can access the data and resources.

Extract the data from your intruder system and format it for compatibility with Amazon S3. This may involve converting the data into a suitable format like CSV, JSON, or Parquet. Ensure your data is clean and structured according to the requirements you identified earlier.

Utilize AWS encryption mechanisms to secure your data during transfer. AWS supports secure transfer protocols like HTTPS and SFTP. Make sure your data is encrypted both in transit and at rest to maintain security and compliance standards.

Use AWS CLI (Command Line Interface) or AWS SDKs (Software Development Kits) to manually upload the data to your Amazon S3 bucket. Execute commands to copy your formatted data files from your local system to the S3 bucket. For example, using AWS CLI, the command might look like `aws s3 cp /local/data/file s3://your-bucket-name/`.

After transferring your data to Amazon S3, verify that the data has been uploaded correctly. You can use AWS S3 console to check the files in the bucket or use AWS CLI commands to list the contents of your bucket and ensure the files are as expected.

To ensure continuous and efficient data movement, set up scripts or cron jobs that automate the extraction and upload process based on your transfer schedule. Use AWS Lambda or AWS Batch for more sophisticated automation needs if necessary, ensuring that you adhere to the ‘no third-party integrations’ constraint.

By following these steps, you can effectively move data from your intruder system to an AWS Data Lake, ensuring that it is done securely and efficiently without relying on external tools or services.

FAQs

ETL, an acronym for Extract, Transform, Load, is a vital data integration process. It involves extracting data from diverse sources, transforming it into a usable format, and loading it into a database, data warehouse or data lake. This process enables meaningful data analysis, enhancing business intelligence.

The intruder is an online vulnerability scanner that finds cyber security weaknesses in your digital infrastructure, to avoid costly data breaches. The intruder was founded in 2015 to help solve the information overload crisis in vulnerability management. Having worked both as an ethical hacker for tier one companies, and for blue teams defending critical national infrastructure, That while vulnerability management tools were great at finding issues, they were less useful when it came to prioritizing them, tracking them, and timely alerting when problems arose.

Intruder's API provides access to a wide range of data related to security testing and vulnerability management. The following are the categories of data that can be accessed through Intruder's API:  

1. Vulnerability data: This includes information about the vulnerabilities detected during the security testing process, such as the severity level, description, and recommended remediation steps.  
2. Scan data: This includes information about the scans performed, such as the start and end time, scan type, and scan results.  
3. Asset data: This includes information about the assets being scanned, such as the IP address, hostname, and operating system.  
4. User data: This includes information about the users who have access to the Intruder platform, such as their email address, name, and role.  
5. Report data: This includes information about the reports generated by the Intruder platform, such as the report type, format, and content.  
6. Integration data: This includes information about the integrations with other tools and platforms, such as the API keys, webhook URLs, and authentication credentials.  

Overall, Intruder's API provides a comprehensive set of data that can be used to improve security testing and vulnerability management processes.

This can be done by building a data pipeline manually, usually a Python script (you can leverage a tool as Apache Airflow for this). This process can take more than a full week of development. Or it can be done in minutes on Airbyte in three easy steps: 
1. Set up Intruder to AWS Datalake as a source connector (using Auth, or usually an API key)
2. Choose a destination (more than 50 available destination databases, data warehouses or lakes) to sync data too and set it up as a destination connector
3. Define which data you want to transfer from Intruder to AWS Datalake and how frequently
You can choose to self-host the pipeline using Airbyte Open Source or have it managed for you with Airbyte Cloud. 

ELT, standing for Extract, Load, Transform, is a modern take on the traditional ETL data integration process. In ELT, data is first extracted from various sources, loaded directly into a data warehouse, and then transformed. This approach enhances data processing speed, analytical flexibility and autonomy.

ETL and ELT are critical data integration strategies with key differences. ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) transforms data before loading, ideal for structured data. In contrast, ELT (Extract, Load, Transform) loads data before transformation, perfect for processing large, diverse data sets in modern data warehouses. ELT is becoming the new standard as it offers a lot more flexibility and autonomy to data analysts.
