assets.
Black Hat USA – Flashpoint, the global leader in threat
intelligence, announced today the release of new features and
capabilities to its flagship platform, Flashpoint Ignite, and
Echosec, its comprehensive location intelligence solution at Black
Hat USA 2024. The company invites attendees of the conference to
discover how these new industry-leading solutions help
organizations stay ahead of the threats that matter the most to
their business.
At Booth #3041, Flashpoint will be showcasing the company’s new
Investigations Management tool, new intelligence requirements
mapping feature, and location protection alert system for physical
assets. These innovations are uniquely designed to deliver the most
actionable insights precisely aligned with a customers’ threat and
intelligence needs, enabling organizations to make informed
decisions and protect their most critical assets.
Flashpoint Ignite: Tailored Threat Intelligence for Precision
and Impact
Those working in security and threat analysis are at the
forefront of the constantly evolving threat landscape. However,
each organization faces its own unique challenges and threats, such
as the sheer volume and noise of data and differing security goals.
These challenges, combined with ineffective operationalization and
skill shortages, leave teams struggling to leverage threat
intelligence effectively. This impairs companies ability to analyze
and respond to the barrage of threats, leading to delays and
potentially putting their organization at a higher risk.
Flashpoint Ignite makes threat intelligence meaningful and
immediately applicable by combining its extensive data collections
with advanced analytics and deep understanding of each customer's
unique needs, transforming the overwhelming complexity of cyber
threats into clear, actionable, and relevant insights tailored to
each customer's unique needs. With Ignite, organizations are
empowered to swiftly identify, prioritize, and mitigate the threats
that matter most. At Black Hat, Flashpoint is excited to release
the latest advancements to Flashpoint Ignite:
- Investigations Management: This adaptable tool
seamlessly integrates into your bespoke threat intelligence
workflows. Customize your investigative process, gather relevant
data across Ignite, categorize it with custom tags, collaborate
with colleagues, map it to your assets, and prioritize based on
urgency. Whether tracking cyber threats, insider activities, or
ransomware incidents, Investigations Management adapts to your
focus areas, providing tailored, relevant intelligence.
- Intelligence Requirements Mapping: The company will
provide Black Hat attendees with an exclusive preview of this
feature which empowers customers to align Flashpoint collections
with their Priority Intelligence Requirements (PIRs). When released
in Q4 2024, the platform will automatically scan, identify, and
deliver relevant data matched to their PIRs into an organized
folder, ensuring users receive highly targeted intelligence that
enhances strategic decision-making.
Echosec: Comprehensive Location-Based Threat
Intelligence
Organizations are also facing numerous threats to distributed
physical assets, like natural disasters, local disruptions, and
physical attacks, that require a streamlined and efficient solution
to safeguard multiple locations effectively.
Echosec, Flashpoint’s geospatially-enriched open-source
intelligence solution, helps organizations manage and monitor their
distributed, location-based assets, maintaining visibility and
situational awareness of potential threats. At Black Hat (Booth
#3041) Flashpoint will highlight the latest advancements to
Flashpoint Echosec:
- Location Protection: Centrally manage and monitor
location-based assets, providing timely alerts if threats are
detected nearby. By offering tailored, configurable alerts that
align with specific customer needs, Location Protection reduces
noise and false positives, enhancing operational efficiency and
security. Catalog various asset types, visualize them on
interactive maps, and set up proximity-based alerts for events
detected near these geo-referenced assets. This feature empowers
rapid identification, analysis, and response to mitigate risks that
could disrupt operations, compromise safety, or impact business
continuity.
"The threat landscape is constantly evolving, with a barrage of
increasingly sophisticated threats and complex attack vectors
challenging security professionals," said Josh Lefkowitz, CEO of
Flashpoint. "At Flashpoint, we are dedicated to continuous
innovation to make threat intelligence easier and more effective
with the best data and intelligence. The advancements we’re
showcasing at Black Hat USA 2024 with our Flashpoint Ignite and
Echosec solutions underscore our commitment to empowering our
customers with the actionable and personalized intelligence they
need to navigate these challenges, make mission-critical decisions,
and protect their people and assets.”
