Kaspersky has enhanced its Threat Lookup platform by integrating AI-driven open-source intelligence (OSINT) search capabilities. This upgrade allows customers to access summaries and article abstracts related to analyzed objects, saving significant time when investigating Indicators of Compromise (IoCs) or reviewing cybersecurity reports.
Streamlining Security Operations with Automation
The growing complexity of managing security operations often burdens cybersecurity teams. According to the Enterprise Strategy Group’s report on XDR and SOC modernization, 22% of organizations want their security teams to focus on strategic initiatives instead of routine tasks. Kaspersky’s enhanced Threat Lookup service addresses this need by automating OSINT search processes, enabling teams to allocate resources more efficiently during research and threat investigations
Comprehensive Intelligence at Your Fingertips
Kaspersky Threat Lookup consolidates a vast array of cyberthreat data collected by Kaspersky, presenting it through the Kaspersky Threat Intelligence Portal. The platform delivers up-to-date intelligence on existing and emerging threats, covering:
URLs, domains, and IP addresses
File hashes (MD5, SHA1, SHA256)
Threat actor names and profiles
Behavioral and statistical data
WHOIS and DNS records
Geolocation data
File attributes, download chains, timestamps, and more
This unified repository of data provides global visibility into cyberthreats, empowering security teams to improve incident response and proactively prevent attacks before they impact their organization.
Enhanced Search Capabilities with AI
Previously, the OSINT Threat Lookup feature was limited to hash lookups with basic source links. The recent upgrade introduces support for a broader range of indicators, such as:
IP addresses
Domains
URLs
Strings following standard host naming conventions
Additionally, users now benefit from AI-generated summaries, developed by Kaspersky’s AI Research Center. These summaries provide valuable insights into threat actors, affected regions, industries, and related software, significantly reducing the need for manual analysis.
This improvement streamlines the threat assessment process, allowing cybersecurity teams to access actionable intelligence more efficiently and make quicker, more informed decisions.
Leveraging AI to Save Time and Enhance Security
Anatoly Simonenko, Senior Product Manager at Kaspersky, emphasizes the importance of automation in modern cybersecurity:
“We aim to provide companies with extensive data to protect them from cyberattacks and mitigate potential negative consequences. Since the effectiveness of this effort is frequently contingent on the amount of time cybersecurity teams dedicate to research, it is important to automate routine tasks to enable them to focus on more intricate issues. Our AI-powered OSINT search capabilities will assist them with this endeavor and save time when seeking contextual information for their investigations.”
