Access to timely and accurate threat intelligence is now core to security operations for many organizations.

Typically, security teams gather large amounts of threat intelligence from multiple places in different and incompatible formats.

Automation takes the drudgery out of importing data from an extensive range of sources, including internal logs, open-source feeds, and threat intelligence feeds.

Beyond number crunching and prioritization of threats, a modern TIP has another trick up its sleeve to help in the battle against threat actors: it facilitates the bi-directional exchange of intelligence.

Vital threat intelligence and remediation can be quickly shared with government agencies, security communities, and industry associations, giving cybercriminals less of a window to proliferate attacks.

TIPs have the capability to provide intelligence that is highly relevant to an organization's specific industry, threat landscape, and operational context, enabling precise threat detection and response.
