Turtles, Clams, and Cyber Threat Actors: Shell Usage
The Socket Threat Research Team uncovers how threat actors weaponize shell techniques across npm, PyPI, and Go ecosystems to maintain persistence and exfiltrate data.
Ruby API wrapper for RedoxEngine
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'redox-engine'
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install redox-engine
In an initializer file:
RedoxEngine.configure do |redox|
redox.api_key = #{Your API Key}
redox.secret = #{Your secret}
end
source = {
Name => Your Source Name,
ID => <REDOX_SRC_ID>
}
destinations = {
PatientAdmin => {
Name => Destination Name,
ID => <REDOX_DEST_ID>
},
ClinicalSummary => {
Name => Destination Name,
ID => <REDOX_DEST_ID>
},
...
}
redox = RedoxEngine::Client.new(
source: source,
destinations: destinations,
test: true
)
redox.add_patient(
Identifiers: [...],
Demographics: {
FirstName: 'Joe'
...
}
)
Initializing with a persisted access token (check if it's expired, client will load naively)
c = RedoxEngine::Client.new(
source: source,
destinations: destinations,
test: true,
token: <Existing access token>
)
Initializing with a persisted refresh token (client will get a new access token)
c = RedoxEngine::Client.new(
source: source,
destinations: destinations,
test: true,
refresh_token: <Existing refresh token>
)
c.access_token # => returns new token
To run the test suite, save the following in redox_keys.yml in the test/directory (already in the .gitignore for your convenience):
api_key: <Your RedoxEngine API Key>
secret: <Your RedoxEngine API Secret>
source_data:
Name: <RedoxEngine Source Name>
ID: <RedoxEngine Source ID>
destinations_data:
ClinicalSummary:
Name: <Destination Name>
ID: <Destination ID>
PatientAdmin:
Name: <Destination Name>
ID: <Destination ID>
Scheduling:
Name: <Destination Name>
ID: <Destination ID>
PatientSearch:
Name: <Destination Name>
ID: <Destination ID>
After checking out the repo, run bin/setup
to install dependencies. Then, run rake test
to run the tests. You can also run bin/console
for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.
To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install
. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb
, and then run bundle exec rake release
, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem
file to rubygems.org.
