Emerging Threats Intelligence Investigations
Leverage Intel on Emerging Threats for Greater Insights
Emerging Threat Intelligence provides information on the dynamic threat landscape and new threats that could impact your organization based on your industry, region, or other factors. With a better understanding of the new tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) threat actors are using against companies like yours, you can take proactive steps to ensure your organization has the proper security controls and detection capabilities in place to uncover, and stop, an attack in progress.
How Do These Investigations Work?
- The ZeroFox platform collects data from millions of surface, deep, and dark web content sources to understand current and historical metadata on domains, IPs, and other related threat intelligence. The platform also collects content from thousands of forums, marketplaces, and messaging platforms like Discord and Telegram to highlight chatter that provides early warning on attacks.
- Create queries based on your region or industry and save relevant threads into Investigations that can be shared with others on your team.
- Understand the context of where threats originated, what threat actors were looking for, who is behind attacks, and what attack methods the threat actors used to better prepare for emerging threats that pose a risk to your organization.
How This Intelligence Enhances Digital Risk Protection
Emerging Threat Intel can provide you with actionable intelligence to identify the TTPs threat actors are using in your industry and region, so you can arm your security teams to better safeguard your organization. While Digital Risk Protection gives you visibility into actual impersonations of your brand, or phishing campaigns using your brand identity, Emerging Threat Intel gives you insight into new ways that threat actors may try to target and breach your organization.
Features and Benefits Include:
- More extensive analysis: Our proprietary data sets, from unique historical data to the latest dark web research from our embedded operatives, enable in-depth insights.
- Uncover covert chatter-focused feeds: Get alerted to threats in your industry or region to help you understand if your organization has the detection capabilities in place to discover threat actor TTPs.
- Analyst-curated dark web notes: Get the full picture with more context around new breaches, malware, and threat actor campaigns.
When to Use Emerging Threat Intelligence
Data Source: Threat Actors, Advisories
Insights: Discover TTPs and indicators used by threat actors in your region. Nation-state threat actors are the primary concern here, and their goals include espionage, disruption of critical infrastructure, or sabotage of political or economic processes.
Outcomes: Review the TTPs of threat actors to determine whether you have the detection capabilities to match. Ensure your data encryption and protection capabilities are sufficient to prevent exfiltration of sensitive information.
Data Source: Threat Actors, Advisories
Insights: Discover TTPs and indicators used by threat actors in your industry. Threat actors will often target companies in the same industry due to the fact that they have many of the same IT assets which are vulnerable to exploitation methods that the threat actor is familiar with. They can also easily repurpose phishing campaigns since the email and web page messaging will be similar.
Outcomes: Review the TTPs of threat actors to determine whether you have the detection capabilities to match. Prioritize the remediation of any vulnerabilities that these threat actors are known to target.
Data Source: News, Advisories, Advanced dark web
Insights: Understand the threat landscape in your industry or region.
Outcomes: Employ detection mechanisms for emerging threats that pose a risk to your organization. Prepare an intelligence briefing for your organization based on these findings.
