What is cyber threat intelligence software?

Cyber threat intelligence software (also called threat intelligence platforms or TIP) collects, analyzes, and transforms raw threat data into actionable insights. The software gathers threat information from multiple sources like dark web monitoring, third-party breaches, code repositories, and stealer logs. It then correlates this data with your organization and upstream vendors to identify relevant risks. Rather than overwhelming you with thousands of generic alerts, Breachsense uses advanced analytics and machine learning. We filter noise, prioritize genuine threats, and provide context about potential attacks. The result? Highly actionable, timely intelligence that enables faster incident response and more effective threat hunting.

Why Use Breachsense

Stop Alert Fatigue

Filter thousands of threat signals into prioritized intelligence your team can act on. Focus on real threats instead of false positives.

Aggregate All Threat Sources

Unify dark web monitoring, breach data, OSINT, and threat actor channels into one platform. Get complete visibility across your threat landscape.

Proactive Threat Hunting

Detect threats targeting your organization before attacks happen. Intelligence-driven hunting finds indicators of compromise weeks earlier than reactive monitoring.

Cyber Threat Intelligence Platform Trusted by Security Teams Worldwide

Frequently Asked Questions

A threat intelligence platform collects and analyzes cyber threat data from thousands of sources to identify potential risks targeting your organization. It automatically correlates the threat information with your specific assets to prioritize the most relevant threats. The platform then delivers actionable intelligence directly to your security team and existing security tools. This enables proactive threat detection and faster incident response. It transforms raw threat data into clear, prioritized insights that help you prevent attacks. According to NIST’s guidance on threat intelligence, this approach increases the efficiency and effectiveness of your organization’s cybersecurity capabilities.

Start by defining your organization’s specific security objectives, critical assets, and threat landscape scope. Next, assemble a cross-functional team including cybersecurity analysts, threat hunters, and incident responders. Build your data collection infrastructure by integrating multiple intelligence sources. These include commercial feeds, open-source intelligence, government advisories, and industry-specific forums. Use threat intelligence platforms to aggregate and normalize the data. Develop an analysis workflow that evaluates threat relevance, impact, and likelihood. Implement an automated scoring system to focus on the most critical risks. Finally, establish integrations with your existing incident response platform to share actionable intelligence with your team.

The three primary types of threat intelligence are Tactical, Operational, and Strategic, as defined by industry frameworks from organizations like SANS. Tactical intelligence is technical and focused on the immediate future. It deals with indicators of compromise (IOCs) like malicious IP addresses, URLs, file hashes, and domain names. You can automate tactical threat intel and integrate it into security tools. Operational intelligence provides deeper understanding of the who, why, and how behind attacks. It focuses on attribution, motivation, and the tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) that threat actors use to plan and execute campaigns. Strategic intelligence offers a high-level perspective on how cyber threats intersect with global events, geopolitical conditions, and organizational risks. It’s typically used by executive leadership to guide cybersecurity investments and long-term decision-making.

The threat intelligence lifecycle consists of five interconnected stages that transform raw data into actionable security insights. 1. Discovery identifies your intelligence requirements by defining objectives and determining what assets need protection. 2. Collection gathers data from various sources including internal logs, external threat feeds, and OSINT. 3. Processing transforms collected data into a usable format by sorting, decrypting, and translating information. 4. Analysis examines the processed data to identify patterns, anomalies, and signs of malicious activity. 5. Dissemination distributes the analyzed intelligence to intended audiences in an actionable format. Feedback gathers stakeholder input to continuously improve the entire process.
