Harshal Pachpande - PeerSpot reviewer
Automating intelligence workflows significantly reduces false positives and enhances response efficiency
ThreatConnect Threat Intelligence Platform (TIP) offers valuable workflows that integrate with our SOAR platform. It performs dedicated threat scoring capabilities which enrich internal indicators and automate response actions. This has been a key feature in our environment, which we have utilized for picking IOCs. The platform can be domain-specific and customer-specific, allowing data isolation for each customer. The scoring capabilities of ThreatConnect Threat Intelligence Platform (TIP) deserve a rating of nine out of ten. Its scalability and threat scoring capabilities have reduced false positives in our detection, as we dynamically change the IOCs which are updated daily through scheduled polling time over QRadar and SOAR.

Good reporting and pretty stable but needs to be simpler to use
The support team of ThreatQ set up a VM on our VPN, which was SlashNext's private VPN. Then we just initiated some system calls and ThreatQ provided us the configuration file with our settings (like our email, our API key, our URL, our category, etc.). They set up a VM on our private VPN cloud. And then they provided us the configuration file in which we just entered our details like our company URL, our API category, and API keys et cetera. We could just add it on the configuration file. We just uploaded it to the ThreatQ server. After running the system calls, we just initiated the ThreatQ and then performed tasks on the UI, such as categorizing the reports. If we only wanted the report for phishing, then we just manipulated the data on the UI and just extracted the reports. That's all. The deployment was complex. We used high hardware specifications. I don't remember the exact specifications, however, I recall them being high. There were some services that had some compatibility errors. That's why we had our VMs - to make sure that the customer would not face any errors. Everything's deployed with high specifications and custom specifications. That was the biggest challenge for us - to deploy on the customer VMs. On average, deployment takes 15-20 minutes if it's deployed without any errors. I was with one of the NetOps network admin during deployment. We were only two people and we just deployed and installed all services and we executed the deployment.
