Webhook Ingestion

Astral provides native support for webhook-based ingestion, allowing external systems to send security events directly to the platform in real time. This capability enables fast and flexible integration with applications, security tools, and services that can actively push events as they occur, without the need for polling, agents, or intermediate storage.

Through the Astral ingestion webhook, external sources can transmit structured event data directly into the SIEM. This model is well suited for custom applications, third-party platforms, and services that generate security-relevant events but do not support traditional log forwarding or API-based collection. Webhook ingestion ensures low latency and near real-time visibility into externally generated activity.

Events received via webhook are processed through Astral’s standard analysis pipeline. Incoming data is analyzed, interpreted, normalized, and correlated with events from other ingestion methods, including logs, network monitoring, API-based sources, and SNMP. This unified processing ensures that webhook-based events are treated consistently and enriched with contextual information from across the environment.

By enabling direct webhook ingestion, Astral extends its monitoring capabilities to virtually any system capable of emitting events. These events become part of the same operational security workflow, supporting identification, prioritization, and automated response through Inopli’s Response and RPA capabilities, while maintaining centralized visibility and auditability.
