About Carbon Black
Carbon Black is an endpoint security platform from Broadcom (formerly VMware) that provides threat detection, investigation, and response capabilities across your organisation’s devices. The n8n Carbon Black node connects this endpoint telemetry to your automated workflows — enabling security teams to respond to threats faster by removing the manual steps between detection and action.
Endpoint security generates enormous volumes of data. Every process execution, network connection, file modification, and registry change on every managed device creates telemetry that needs monitoring. Security teams cannot manually review all of it, which is exactly why automated workflows matter. The Carbon Black node lets you pull alerts, query device status, isolate compromised endpoints, and retrieve investigation data without leaving your workflow engine.
Practical use cases include automated alert enrichment (pulling Carbon Black alert details and combining them with other threat intelligence), endpoint isolation workflows that quarantine compromised machines the moment a critical alert fires, and compliance reporting that aggregates endpoint health data on a schedule. When seconds matter during an active incident, having these responses automated rather than manual can be the difference between containment and breach.
Osher Digital builds security automation workflows for Australian businesses using n8n. If your team needs faster incident response or wants to automate routine endpoint security operations, our systems integration and business automation specialists can connect Carbon Black to your broader security operations.

How it works
We work hand-in-hand with you to implement Carbon Black
As Carbon Black consultants we work with you hand in hand build more efficient and effective operations. Here’s how we will work with you to automate your business and integrate Carbon Black with integrate and automate 800+ tools.
Step 1
Generate Carbon Black API Credentials
In your Carbon Black Cloud console, create an API key with the appropriate access level. For automated response actions like endpoint isolation, you will need a key with Live Response permissions.
Step 2
Add Credentials to n8n
Configure the Carbon Black credentials in n8n by entering your API ID, API secret key, and organisation key. Set the connector URL to match your Carbon Black Cloud instance region.
Step 3
Design the Response Workflow
Map out what triggers the workflow and what actions should follow. Common patterns include alert-triggered enrichment and triage, scheduled compliance checks, or webhook-driven incident response from your SIEM.
Step 4
Configure the Carbon Black Node
Add the node to your workflow and select the operation — get alerts, search events, isolate device, or query endpoints. Map dynamic values from your trigger into the node’s parameters for targeted queries.
Step 5
Add Decision Logic
Use IF nodes and Switch nodes to evaluate alert severity, device criticality, or threat type. Route critical alerts through immediate response paths and lower-priority items through standard triage queues.
Step 6
Test Against Known Scenarios
Validate the workflow using test alerts or non-production endpoints. Verify that isolation commands, alert queries, and notification actions all execute correctly before enabling the workflow against production endpoints.
