As the volume and complexity of cyber threats increase, contextualizing and prioritizing incidents becomes critical. In addition to the well reported security shortage of talent in this industry, enterprise SOC teams are required to deal with an ever-growing queue of alerts.
Anomali ThreatStream aggregates and organizes feeds from multiple trusted partners, providing diverse threat intelligence within their platform. PolySwarm seamlessly integrates via API and allows Anomali’s users to obtain file and URL reputation services with a single click, in real-time, from a network of independent malware detection engines. PolySwarm enriches samples with diverse threat indicators and allows threat hunters and SOC analysts to search for and identify relationships between diverse malware families and threat indicators.
PolySwarm uniquely addresses emergent malware by using a network of research-driven engines that compete in real-time to detect threats. These engines are economically rewarded for early and accurate detection. Enterprises benefit from deeper coverage of the malware landscape and unique threat intelligence.
