Open Source Threat Intelligence System

Abstract

With more and more business switching to e-business model, cyber security has become a top priority. With the rise of more sophisticated attacks and lack of capabilities to detect, respond and prevent such attacks, the need for next level cyber security solutions has raised. To counter these everyday cyber-attacks, the organizations now need a much dynamic solution; a solution which is smart and intelligent just likes the security threats. So, there is a great emphasis on threat intelligence solutions. The Information Security market is buzzing about threat intelligence with many vendors coming up with new solutions. Often these solutions are very costly and are generally out of the reach of small firms and startups. This paper tries to overcome this obstacle by proposing a more cost effective way to achieve threat intelligence solutions. So, the main objective of this paper is to propose a way to leverage the benefits of threat intelligence solutions without the huge costs involved.
