When talking about securing your operations, speed and coverage are two critical aspects in keeping your data safe. Having access to private or global IoCs is valuable, but their real power comes when they are distributed across your security stack. Without proper dissemination, organizations often struggle with outdated lists, manual updates, and isolated defenses, leaving gaps in protection and slowing down response times.

Maltiverse addresses this challenge with IoC Dissemination, a core capability that ensures your threat intelligence does not remain static or siloed. Instead, Maltiverse automatically distributes fresh, validated IoCs into your security tools in near real time, eliminating the delays and inefficiencies of manual updates.

Whether your stack includes firewalls, SIEMs, SOAR platforms, EDRs, TIPs, or other solutions, Maltiverse integrates seamlessly so that every layer of your defense is powered by the latest and most relevant intelligence.

Benefits

• Always current: Expired IoCs are automatically removed; only live, relevant intelligence is pushed.
• Amplified visibility: Dissemination ensures multiple security controls across your organization operate with consistent intelligence.
• Defense in depth: By spreading IoCs across tools, no single control becomes a single point of failure.
• Operational efficiency: Minimize manual updates and free analysts to focus on higher-level investigations.

How it works

This is a simple and straightforward process done entirely through the Maltiverse Portal.

1. Choose the intelligence to disseminate - Select the IoCs you want to spread from a wide variety of Threat Intelligence Feeds or customize your own feed to meet your organization’s security needs.

2. Connect your tools – Use Maltiverse connectors to integrate with firewalls, SIEMs, SOARs, EDRs, or other security platforms.

3. Integrate your tools - Follow our dynamic documentation, it will change based on your selections and the information associated with your account.

4. Maltiverse operations - IoCs are disseminated in near real time, ensuring your tools are always running with the latest intelligence. It also automatically removes expired IoCs and only delivers intelligence that is relevant.

Why it matters

Being able to efficiently distribute IoCs is critical for strengthening an organization’s security posture. Threats evolve quickly, and siloed and outdated intelligence often leads to a delayed detection and response. By centralizing your IoCs in a single point and distributing it automatically to different security tools, organizations can:

• Reduce response times: Security solutions are constantly updated in near real time, enabling faster detection and response of malicious activity.
• Ensure consistency: All tools operate with the same threat intelligence, minimizing blind spots caused by outdated or incomplete data.
• Optimize resources: Automating IoC dissemination allows security teams to focus on higher-value tasks.
• Strengthen defenses: A coordinated, intelligence-driven approach improves overall resilience against emerging threats.
