# CISA CSAF ICS Advisory Extractor (`ot-data-tools/cisa-csaf-ics-advisory-extractor`) Actor Extract CISA CSAF OT/ICS advisories as normalized JSON with CVEs, severity, mitigations, and quality flags. - **URL**: https://apify.com/ot-data-tools/cisa-csaf-ics-advisory-extractor.md - **Developed by:** [OT Data Tools](https://apify.com/ot-data-tools) (community) - **Categories:** Automation, Developer tools, Integrations - **Stats:** 2 total users, 1 monthly users, 100.0% runs succeeded, 0 bookmarks - **User rating**: No ratings yet ## Pricing Pay per usage This Actor is paid per platform usage. The Actor is free to use, and you only pay for the Apify platform usage, which gets cheaper the higher subscription plan you have.

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases. In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours, and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store. In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server. Actors are written with capital "A". ## How to integrate an Actor? If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects. You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready. The best way to integrate Actors is as follows. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md). If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## Industrial Advisory Monitor Apify Actor that aggregates **public** industrial / OT / ICS security advisories into normalized JSON. ### MVP scope (v0.2) | Source | Status | Default | Live | |--------|--------|---------|------| | **CISA CSAF OT** ([cisagov/CSAF](https://github.com/cisagov/CSAF)) | ✅ **Default** | `cisa-csaf` | **PASS** | | [CISA ICS RSS](https://www.cisa.gov/cybersecurity-advisories/ics-advisories.xml) | Fallback | `cisa-rss` | **403 blocked** | | Siemens ProductCERT | Planned | — | | Schneider / ABB / Rockwell / Phoenix Contact | Planned | — | No secrets, no GitHub token, no login. ### Why this actor? - **Official machine-readable data** — CSAF JSON from CISA via public GitHub repo. - **Normalized JSON** — vendor, CVEs, severity, mitigations, quality flags. - **OT/ICS focus** — built for compliance and threat-intel pipelines. ### Input ```json { "source": "cisa-csaf", "vendors": ["Schneider"], "date_from": "2026-07-01", "severity_min": "medium", "max_items": 50, "include_raw": false } ```` Default source is **`cisa-csaf`**. Use `cisa-rss` only for offline fixtures or if RSS becomes reachable. ### Output fields Each dataset item includes: `vendor`, `title`, `product_or_family`, `severity`, `cve_ids`, `published_at`, `affected_versions`, `mitigation_summary`, `source_name`, `source_url`, `retrieved_at`, `quality_status`, `parser_warnings`. ### Rate limits & etiquette - CSAF: 1 GitHub API list call + up to `max_items` raw JSON fetches per run. No GitHub token. - RSS: 1 request per run (often HTTP 403 from automated clients). - Identifying `User-Agent`; conservative retries; no WAF evasion. ### Quality status | Status | Meaning | |--------|---------| | `PASS` | Core fields present, no parser warnings | | `WARN` | Usable but incomplete (e.g. inferred vendor) | | `FAIL` | Missing critical fields | ### License Proprietary — income-factory experiment IF-001. # Actor input Schema ## `source` (type: `string`): Official CISA advisory source. Use cisa-csaf for live runs (recommended). cisa-rss may return HTTP 403. ## `vendors` (type: `array`): Optional filter — vendor name substring match (case-insensitive). Empty = all vendors. ## `date_from` (type: `string`): Inclusive start date (ISO 8601, e.g. 2026-01-01). ## `date_to` (type: `string`): Inclusive end date (ISO 8601). ## `severity_min` (type: `string`): Filter advisories at or above this CVSS-based severity. ## `max_items` (type: `integer`): Maximum advisories to return (limits GitHub/CISA HTTP calls). ## `include_raw` (type: `boolean`): Include a short plain-text excerpt in raw\_text\_excerpt. ## Actor input object example ```json { "source": "cisa-csaf", "vendors": [], "max_items": 50, "include_raw": false } ``` # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup. ## JavaScript example ```javascript import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client'; // Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token // Replace the '' with your token const client = new ApifyClient({ token: '', }); // Prepare Actor input const input = { "source": "cisa-csaf", "vendors": [] }; // Run the Actor and wait for it to finish const run = await client.actor("ot-data-tools/cisa-csaf-ics-advisory-extractor").call(input); // Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any) console.log('Results from dataset'); console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`); const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems(); items.forEach((item) => { console.dir(item); }); // 📚 Want to learn more 📖?
