ATLANTA, GA — (Marketwired) — 05/12/15 — Vorstack, a leading provider for automation, curation and to fight cyber threats, today from the National Health Information Sharing & Analysis Center (NH-ISAC) / SANS Annual Healthcare Cyber Security Summit announced it has partnered with Flashpoint, the leading data and software services provider of intelligence from the Deep and Dark Web — the areas of the Internet that mainstream search engines do not penetrate.
Vorstack has integrated Flashpoint–s Deep and Dark Web data into its Threat Intelligence Platform, further enabling customers to understand threats detected on their networks. The joint solution will be available in Vorstack–s next release.
“As criminals, hackers and other bad actors engage in illicit activities and coordinate their efforts on the Deep and Dark Web, organizations are finding themselves the targets of harmful actions without warning,” said Flashpoint CEO Josh Lefkowitz. “By integrating Flashpoint–s data into the Vorstack Threat Intelligence Platform, Vorstack customers now have access to unique and differentiated data offering greater insight into these malicious areas of the Internet and specific threats that need immediate attention.”
Flashpoint–s structured datasets are cultivated from threatening communities active within the Deep and Dark Web — from terrorists to cybercriminals. It enables organizations to discover meaningful data in order to understand their adversaries more comprehensively and mitigate looming threats.
“Security breaches are driving organizations to expand the sources of threat data, and Flashpoint–s data builds out a unique view of threat intelligence around specific bad actors,” said Anne Bonaparte, CEO and President of Vorstack. “We continue to hear from our customers that relevance and context are the most important components of actionable threat intelligence. Vorstack brings the Flashpoint data to life and pinpoints the specific threats that warrant immediate attention based on this robust threat data.”
Vorstack delivers actionable threat intelligence by reducing the noise inherent in threat data and enabling secure and controlled information sharing without attribution. The automated curation and correlation of threat data from external sources, behind perimeter defenses, and behind the defenses of trusted organizations, enables organizations to identify relevant threats in minutes instead of months.
Flashpoint illuminates the Deep and Dark Web. A pioneer in providing intelligence from these regions of the Internet, Flashpoint–s software and data services help companies, governments, and consumers enhance their cyber and physical security. The company–s unique blend of subject matter expertise and software engineering has changed the way meaningful and actionable intelligence is gleaned from the previously unmapped regions of the Internet.
