Using X/Twitter as a Source for Copilot for Security Intelligence
Crowd Sourced Intelligence
There’s a lot of great information on X/Twitter that can be used as a source of information for Copilot for Security. X/Twitter removed built-in RSS functionality, but the RSS.app service can be used to generate several types of feeds based on hashtags, accounts, searches, etc. Each feed provides differently formatted results with different content.
Incidentally, while I’m focusing on the X/Twitter feed in this post, the RSS.app service can generate feeds out of other popular data service such as LinkedIn, Threads, Reddit, Facebook and news sources such as CNN, USA Today, and the BBC among a long list of others.
I went ahead and created a feed for the #CopilotforSecurity hashtag for X/Twitter that anyone can use, but you can use your imagination for hashtags and accounts that regularly provide you valuable and trusted information. And please share so the Copilot for Security community can benefit.
To use the X/Twitter feed in Copilot for Security, simply use the “Use public URL <insert URL>” prompt starter after ensuring the Public web plugin is enabled.
Here’s the differences in the types of feed outputs (XML, JSON, and CSV).
XML
https://rss.app/feeds/sUT7HK03sBu5O9UN.xml
The XML option is probably the least valuable, but contains summarized information if you want that.
JSON
https://rss.app/feeds/v1.1/sUT7HK03sBu5O9UN.json
The JSON result has a bit more and will include the embedded Tweet URLs.
CSV
https://rss.app/feeds/sUT7HK03sBu5O9UN.csv
I like the CSV option best as it includes the full content but also the direct link to the original tweet.
