Sycope introduces a new version of its network traffic and security monitoring software 

Includes user scripts enabling seamless integration with external systems.

‍

User Scripts

Added a new functionality called User Scripts which allows for automatic communication by POST json message with external systems using the REST Client. This allows for sending Alerts to external systems and applications

‍

Advanced Custom Aggregations

‍

Added a new functionality of Advanced Custom Aggregations. Being an evolution of creating Custom Aggregations, the Advanced ones can be used to set a dynamic key field value and any metric for them (for performance reasons, max recommended value equals 3) and any metric (for performance reasons, max recommended value equals 6).

Playground

Added a new functionality called the Playground. The User can now easily test the NQL queries, the looks and functioning of the search bar query, as well as the produced results. This can be achieved through plain NQL code written from scratch or with the examples provided here: https://documentation.sycope.com/NQL/NQL_examples.
