README

Macadress#

Enriches a MAC address observable with data from macadress.com: the registering vendor, an inferred device category, virtualization / container-network detection, special-use address classification (broadcast, multicast, VRRP, HSRP, STP, LACP, 802.1X, LLDP, ...), and MAC-randomization confidence. It calls the same lookup that backs the macadress.com JSON API, MCP server and website.

Supported data types#

  • mac
  • other (for deployments that store MAC addresses as other)

Configuration#

Item Required Description
api_key yes macadress.com API key (Bearer token, starts with mk_). The free tier is 1,000 lookups/month with no card. Sign up at https://macadress.com/signup, then copy the key from the account page.

The analyzer honours check_tlp / max_tlp (default max_tlp: 2, i.e. TLP:RED observables are not sent off-box) and the PAP equivalents.

macadress:Device smartphone (omitted when unknown) info
macadress:Virtualization VMware (only when detected) info
macadress:SpecialUse VRRP (only when detected) info
macadress:Randomized possible / likely info / suspicious

artifacts surfaces the macadress.com vendor page URL(s) as url observables.
