Challenge

As a trusted partner in helping businesses with threat exposure management, Sorint.SEC remains steadfast in addressing and managing evolving cybersecurity challenges. Yet, in their pursuit of providing industry-leading services, they require contextual, relevant, and actionable threat intelligence. Despite collaborating with multiple vendors, Sorint.SEC faced challenges in accessing enriched and precise intelligence capable of outsmarting the dynamic landscape of cyber threats and adversaries for its customers.

Delivering cybersecurity requires constant efforts to be on top of emerging threats. To remain vigilant, we require a continuous feed of updated insights into threat actors, tactics, techniques, procedures (TTPs), indicators of compromise (IOCs), and all the relevant information to safeguard against dangers proactively. Since our company's inception, we have collaborated with threat intelligence providers, and we found that Group-IB's solutions excel in helping us track malicious actors and stay consistently updated.

How did Sorint.SEC leverage Group-IB’s Threat Intelligence (TI) Platform?

After facing trials and tribulations with testing several CTI solutions, Sorint.SEC turned to Group-IB’s proprietary Threat Intelligence (TI) as an intelligence-enabling platform for its clients. Real-time, updated, and contextual threat intelligence was a non-negotiable need for Sorint.SEC, leading them to choose Group-IB’s Threat Intelligence, which offers:

The industry’s largest library of dark web data and monitors cybercriminal forums, marketplaces, and closed communities in real time to identify compromised credentials, sensitive information, stolen credit cards, fresh malware samples, access to corporate networks, and other critical intelligence that enables companies to identify and mitigate cyber risks before further damage is done.
Unparallel insights into adversaries, attack tactics, and risk insights tailored to Sorint.SEC’s clients business’s landscape.
Network-graph interface to easily connect the missing dots between the attacker's identity, infrastructure data exfiltration, internal interactions, or network lateral movement.
Insights from 60+ sources and internal threat research to understand attacks and attackers your business is most prone to. With comprehensive coverage, cyber risks can be reduced, and effective threat-hunting exercises can be conducted.
Exclusive data collected by undercover operatives on the dark web and from Interpol, Europol, and Afripol, with whom Group-IB frequently collaborates to investigate cyberattacks.

Adding to the technology prowess, Group-IB’s industry-leading expertise and comprehensive research on global and regional threat landscapes made our offering more unique, end-to-end, and reliable. Another differentiating factor was the speed and quality of threat detection, solidifying Group-IB as their official provider.

Continuous improvement and expanded coverage were additional merits that contributed to Group-IB being the final choice of technology provider to ensure they remained ahead in protecting their customers.

Key undertakings

After partnering with Group-IB, Sorint.SEC’s first major breakthrough was tracking, decoding, and mitigating an active threat for one of its significant customers. Upon detection of the threat, Group-IB provided the required tactical intelligence, including indicators of compromise, behavior of the threat actor, Techniques, Tactics, and Procedures (TTPs) employed for further investigation and to make informed response decisions.

By taking a proactive approach, Sorint.SEC addressed surface-level issues for the customer, prepared them to withstand potential impacts in the next phase, and ensured they remained secure without experiencing any disruptions during the eradication of the threat.

Similar strategic, proactive interventions were made possible for their other clients by timely detecting threats and gaining complete context to dissolve or respond to them with Group-IB’s Threat Intelligence solution.
