Month: 2025-08 – fbicyber/opencti__opencti { - Key deliverables focused on UX and data robustness to accelerate operator efficiency and improve data quality. - Frontend-focused enhancements paired with backend parsing improvements. - Notable commits deliverable references provided below. } Summary of work: - Connector Management UI Enhancements: Implemented a visual status indicator for deployed connectors and introduced a tabbed interface for connector details and logs, significantly improving UX and operational manageability. - CVSS parsing robustness bug fix: Hardened CVSS vector parsing to handle variations in the Attack Vector metric and added comprehensive unit tests to ensure robustness of vulnerability data processing. Impact: - Business value: Faster, more reliable troubleshooting and improved visibility into connector deployment status; reduced risk of incorrect vulnerability interpretation due to CVSS parsing edge cases. - Operational: More maintainable code path for UI and backend parsing with tests in place. Technologies/skills demonstrated: - Frontend UI design and refactoring (status indicators, tabbed views). - Backend data parsing logic and test automation (CVSS parsing, unit tests). - Commit-driven delivery with traceable contributions across frontend and backend.
