EWS v2

This Integration is part of the Microsoft Exchange On-Premise Pack.#

Exchange Web Services (EWS) provides the functionality to enable client applications to communicate with the Exchange server. EWS provides access to much of the same data that is made available through Microsoft Office Outlook.

The EWS v2 integration implants EWS leading services. The integration allows getting information on emails and activities in a target mailbox, and some active operations on the mailbox such as deleting emails and attachments or moving emails from folder to folder.

Note: EWS v2 does not support Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA).

If using MFA, use EWS O365 (see https://xsoar.pan.dev/docs/reference/integrations/ewso365)

or if you have Graph Outlook use O365 Outlook Mail (Using Graph API) (see https://xsoar.pan.dev/docs/reference/integrations/microsoft-graph-mail)

or O365 Outlook Mail Single User (Using Graph API) (see https://xsoar.pan.dev/docs/reference/integrations/microsoft-graph-mail-single-user).

Use Cases#

The EWS integration can be used for the following use cases:

Monitor a specific email account and create incidents from incoming emails to the defined folder. Follow the instructions in the Fetched Incidents Data section.
Search for an email message across mailboxes and folders. This can be achieved in the following ways:
- Use the ews-search-mailboxes command to search for all emails in a specific scope of mailboxes. Use the filter argument to narrow the search for emails sent from a specific account and more.
- Use the ews-search-mailbox command to search for all emails in a specific folder within the target mailbox. Use the query argument to narrow the search for emails sent from a specific account and more.
Both of these commands retrieve the ItemID field for each email item listed in the results. TheItemID can be used in the ews-get-items command in order to get more information about the email item itself. For instance, use the ews-search-mailboxes command to hunt for emails that were marked as malicious in prior investigations, across organization mailboxes. Focus your hunt on emails sent from a specific mail account, emails with a specific subject and more.
Get email attachment information. Use the ews-get-attachment command to retrieve information on one attachment or all attachments of a message at once. It supports both file attachments and item attachments (e.g., email messages).
Delete email items from a mailbox. First, make sure you obtain the email item ID. The item ID can be obtained with one of the integration’s search commands. Use the ews-delete-items command to delete one or more items from the target mailbox in a single action. A less common use case is to remove emails that were marked as malicious from a user’s mailbox. You can delete the items permanently (hard delete), or delete the items (soft delete), so they can be recovered by running the ews-recover-messages command.
Send notifications to external users.
Send an email asking for a response to be returned as part of a playbook. See Receiving an email reply

Fetched Incidents Data#

The integration imports email messages from the destination folder in the target mailbox as incidents. If the message contains any attachments, they are uploaded to the War Room as files. If the attachment is an email, Cortex XSOAR fetches information about the attached email and downloads all of its attachments (if there are any) as files.

To use Fetch incidents, configure a new instance and select the Fetches incidents option in the instance settings.

IMPORTANT: The initial fetch interval is the previous 10 minutes. If no emails were fetched before from the destination folder, all emails from 10 minutes prior to the instance configuration and up to the current time will be fetched. Additionally, moving messages manually to the destination folder will not trigger a fetch incident. Define rules on phishing/target mailbox instead of moving messages manually.

You can configure the First fetch timestamp field to determine how much time back you want to fetch incidents.

Notice that it might require you to set the Timeout field to a higher value.

Pay special attention to the following fields in the instance settings:

Email address from which to fetch incidents – mailbox to fetch incidents from.
Name of the folder from which to fetch incidents – use this field to configure the destination folder from where emails should be fetched. The default is Inbox folder. Please note, if Exchange is configured with an international flavor, Inbox will be named according to the configured language.
Has impersonation rights – mark this option if you set the target mailbox to an account different than your personal account. Otherwise Delegation access will be used instead of Impersonation. Find more information on impersonation or delegation rights in the Additional Information section.

Commands#

You can execute these commands from the Cortex XSOAR CLI, as part of an automation, or in a playbook. After you successfully execute a command, a DBot message appears in the War Room with the command details.

Additional Information#

EWS Permissions#

To perform actions on mailboxes of other users, and to execute searches on the Exchange server, you need specific permissions. For a comparison between Delegate and Impersonation permissions, see the Microsoft documentation

Permission	Use Case	How to Configure
Delegated	One-to-one relationship between users.	Read more here.
Impersonation	A single account needs to access multiple mailboxes.	Read more here.
eDiscovery	A single account needs to access multiple mailboxes.	Read more here.
Compliance Search	Perform searches across mailboxes and get an estimate of the results.	Read more here.

New-Compliance Search#

The EWS v2 integration uses remote ps-session to run commands of compliance search as part of Office 365. To check if your account can connect to Office 365 Security & Compliance Center via powershell, check the following steps. New-Compliance search is a long-running task which has no limitation of searched mailboxes and therefore the suggestion is to use Office 365 Search and Deleteplaybook. New-Compliance search returns statistics of matched content search query and doesn't return preview of found emails in contrast toews-search-mailboxescommand.

Troubleshooting#

For troubleshooting information, see the EWS V2 Troubleshooting.
