Customized Threat Intelligence

Validin supports customized threat intelligence by allowing teams to define and maintain intelligence that reflects their own environment and risk priorities.

Instead of relying on generic feeds, teams use Validin to build intelligence from observed infrastructure, historical behaviour, and documented external context.

Intelligence need	How Validin supports it
Defined scope	Infrastructure selected by behaviour and relationships
Reduced noise	Validation using long-term historical data
Context	First-party data with documented external references
Ongoing relevance	Change tracking and monitoring
Operational use	Projects, alerts, and API integration

Customized threat intelligence in Validin

Customized threat intelligence requires control over what is tracked and why.

Validin allows teams to curate intelligence directly from domains, IP addresses, certificates, and related infrastructure observed on the internet. Selection is based on behaviour, age, change patterns, and relationships rather than static indicators alone.

📘
Note
Intelligence in Validin is infrastructure-led. Scope is defined by observed behaviour and relationships, not predefined feeds.

Ongoing strategic analysis

Threat infrastructure changes over time.

Validin preserves historical DNS, host response, certificate, and registration data, allowing teams to refine intelligence as assets appear, rotate, or are retired.

Context is retained even as the scope of an attack changes, preventing intelligence from becoming stale.

Using OSINT for validation

Teams use OSINT data in Validin side-by-side with first-party data to validate observed infrastructure and align it with known campaigns.

Organizing and monitoring intelligence

Teams commonly manage customized intelligence using Projects.

Projects are used to:

Group related infrastructure
Record analyst notes and references
Track changes over time

Curated infrastructure can also be monitored for meaningful changes, such as DNS updates, certificate issuance, or hosting shifts.

Operationalizing intelligence

Customized intelligence in Validin is applied directly within day-to-day security workflows.

Automation is supported through API access, allowing curated intelligence and change signals to be integrated into SIEMs, SOAR platforms, and internal tooling. This ensures that the same intelligence logic is applied consistently across systems, without relying on manual interpretation.
