Overview

Before using the Panther Analysis Tool (PAT) to manage your Panther assets (on your command line or in a CI/CD pipeline, for example), you'll need to , , and . Once you've completed these steps, start running .

When new versions of PAT are released, you can .

Installing PAT

Prerequisites

To install PAT, your environment must have the following already installed:

  • Python 3.11. Install Python using one of the following methods:

    • The download links on the

    • Using , by running brew install python@3.11

    • Using to manage Python versions

  • Pipenv. To install , run pip install --user pipenv.

Installing with pip

To install PAT, run this command:

pip3 install panther_analysis_tool

Building from source

If you'd prefer instead to run from source for development reasons, first set up your environment:

$ make install
$ pipenv run -- pip3 install -e .

Using PAT outside of the virtual environment

If you would rather use PAT outside of the virtual environment, install it directly:

$ make deps
$ pip3 install -e .

PAT CLI aliases

PAT will be installed under the following aliases—either can be used with PAT commands:

  • panther_analysis_tool

  • pat

Examples

$ pipenv run panther_analysis_tool test
...
$ pipenv run pat upload
...

Updating PAT

If you are using pipenv to manage dependencies, follow the below steps to update PAT:

  1. Update PAT to the latest version in your Pipfile.

  2. Run pipenv install --dev.

Alternatively, you can update PAT by running the following command:

$ pip3 install panther_analysis_tool --upgrade

Configuring PAT

PAT can read configuration values from the command line, environment variables, or a configuration file.

Configuration value precedence

The precedence for flag value sources is as follows (highest to lowest):

  1. Values passed with the command

Environment variables

All options can be passed in through environment variables by prepending the variable name with PANTHER_.

For example, the api_token and api_host arguments can be set through environment variables named PANTHER_API_TOKEN and PANTHER_API_HOST.

PAT configuration file

Authenticating with an API token

  1. To validate your token, run pipenv run pat check-connection --api-token <your-api-token> --api-host <your-api-host>.

    • The simplest way to pass API token and host values is with the command, i.e., using --api-token and --api-host.

Rotating the API token

Managing your API token as a secret

PAT will read options from a configuration file called .panther_settings.yml located in your working directory. An example configuration file is included in this repo: . It contains example syntax for supported options.

Most PAT commands require authentication against your Panther instance using an API token. Authenticated PAT actions are captured as .

Follow .

Take note of the .

See .

When running PAT commands that require an API token, be sure your API token (and ) are visible to PAT via one of the .

The token does not expire. As a security best practice, we recommend regularly rotating your API token. For instructions, see .

If you are using PAT in CI/CD jobs, be sure to follow your CI/CD provider's instructions on how to manage your API token as a secret—as described on and .
