Re: configure airgapped miner for on premise minemeld

Hi guys,

we recently setup a minemeld server meant for a airgapped environment and we are trying to figure out how to setup a airgapped miner with the other information found here on customizing a miner.

https://live.paloaltonetworks.com/t5/MineMeld-Articles/Using-MineMeld-to-Create-a-Custom-Miner/ta-p/227694

is there any available article for a requirement to a airgapped setup for the miner as well as if the miner must use https/http to access the intell feeds or any other format eg:scp/ssh/smb will do?

Hi @Gerard_Ng,

unfortunately there isn't any "generic miner" capable of extracting indicators from local files (or network mounted files).

Option 1 is to code a new miner (either contributing to minemeld-core or creating a minemeld extension)

Option 2 is to use the "LocalDB" miner and push local indicators to it.

If you want to explore Option 2 then I'd recoment to take a look at the article https://live.paloaltonetworks.com/t5/MineMeld-Articles/Using-MineMeld-as-an-Incident-Response-Platform/ta-p/174690 and to take a closer look to its Annex 2 where the API for the LocalDB Miner is explained. You could also leverage the minemeld-sync.py script created by @lmori that allows you to sync the LocalDB stored indicators with the ones present on a given local file.
