Monitoring Pastebin.com with ArcSight

Summary:

This document discusses the use of ArcSight for monitoring Pastebin, which is a website that hosts temporary paste files online. The author, Kris Machnicki, references Rootshell's article on how to monitor Pastebin within a SIEM (Security Information and Event Management) system to be notified as soon as any information related to the organization, clients, or personal interests is posted, allowing for prompt reactions to potential leaks. Two replies by Vianney Boncorps and Colin Henderson support this use of technology. This feature from Jive Software's version 2015.3.0.0 allows users to post sensitive information securely and respond directly to the posted item with actions like "Reply," "Follow," and "Share." The interface includes buttons for various actions, such as bookmarking, liking, converting posts into documents, viewing them as PDFs, marking them for different statuses, and more. This is intended for handling potential leaks within an organization's framework by allowing quick reactions to detected breaches or data leakage scenarios.

This content discusses the innovative use of ArcSight for monitoring Pastebin, a website that hosts temporary paste files online. The author, Kris Machnicki, mentions an article by Rootshell where they explain how to monitor Pastebin within your SIEM (Security Information and Event Management) system. The main purpose is to be notified as soon as any information is posted on Pastebin related to the organization, clients, or personal interests in order to react promptly to potential leaks. The article provides a link to the external resource for more detailed instructions: "http://blog.rootshell.be/2012/01/17/monitoring-pastebin-com-within-your-siem/" There are two replies by Vianney Boncorps and Colin Henderson. Vianney Boncorps agrees that it's a nice and innovative use of technology, while Colin Henderson has attached the script and web pages for reference in case the links go dead. The text you've provided appears to be a user interface element from a software tool or platform, likely related to collaborative work and data sharing within an organization. It is part of the social collaboration features offered by Jive Software in their version 2015.3.0.0. This particular feature allows users to post information (presumably about sensitive data) securely, such as on platforms like Pastebin or other secure file-sharing tools, and then respond directly to that posted item with immediate actions like "Reply," "Follow," "Share," etc. The user interface elements include buttons for actions like "Bookmark," "Like," "Show

Likes" (indicating a possible social media feature), and various other options such as converting the post into a document, viewing it as PDF, or marking it for different statuses like "Mark as Official" which might indicate approval. The text you've provided does not contain any actual content but rather provides context about how to interact with a potential leak scenario on an internal platform. It suggests that in the event of a data breach or leakage being detected, users should immediately react by posting related information and responding as described, presumably to handle the situation efficiently within the organization’s framework. This feature could be used for both proactive measures (setting up protocols to respond quickly) and reactive actions (immediately addressing critical situations post-event). The emphasis on speed and efficiency in handling sensitive data breaches suggests a commitment to maintaining security and trust among members of an organization or team sharing such information.
