Required Changes to Make the Script Work Feed URLs and Types: Replace the placeholder feed URLs (https://example.com/threat-feed1.json, etc.) in the CONFIG["feeds"] dictionary with actual threat intelligence feed URLs. Ensure the feed type (json or rss) is accurate for each feed.
SMTP Configuration: Update the CONFIG["smtp"] dictionary with valid SMTP server credentials: server: Your SMTP server address (e.g., smtp.gmail.com). port: SMTP port (e.g., 587 for TLS). username: Your email address. password: Email password or app-specific password. recipient: Email address to receive alerts.
Threat Feed Data Structure: Confirm the JSON structure of your feeds aligns with the parsing logic in process_feed(). Adjust the keys ("indicator", "severity", etc.) if necessary to match the feed format.
Dependencies: Install required Python libraries: pip install requests For RSS/XML feeds, you might need feedparser: pip install feedparser
Database Initialization: Ensure the script has permission to create and write to threats.db in the working directory.
RSS/XML Parsing (Optional): If working with RSS/XML feeds, implement parsing using feedparser or xml.etree.ElementTree in the process_feed() function.
Testing: Test with live feeds and adjust error handling (try/except blocks) for edge cases, such as timeouts, malformed data, or empty feeds.
