Our collection, teams and products work as one system, producing insights that directly support real‑world decisions.
Intel 471’s global, coordinated intelligence operations and strict rules of engagement ensure ethical, reliable sourcing, operational security, and actionable insights tailored to customer risk and business needs. We bring this all together for customers in a single cyber intelligence platform, Verity471, which provides real-time, contextualized threat intelligence, exposure intelligence, and behavioral hunt packages ready to operationalize on your security and automation platforms.
Our Intelligence Operations team acts as the central point of coordination for Intel 471. They align regional collections, editorial teams, breach alerts, analysts and product development around customer priorities. This ensures our output stays relevant, focused and actionable.
The team continuously monitors how the Intelligence Machine is performing. By tracking underground coverage, production pipelines and evolving demand signals, they surface bottlenecks, gaps and new opportunities, and use planning forums to realign priorities accordingly to ensure we meet the highest standards of intelligence for our customers.
Building and maintaining a cyber HUMINT counter-threat operation at scale is difficult. Mitigating the financial, legal, ethical and reputational risks of operating in an unpredictable criminal underground environment is cost-prohibitive — even for large organizations and governments.
We’ve established strict policies and procedures to manage these risks — from hiring people with ethical intentions and clean backgrounds, to establishing a zero-tolerance rules of engagement (RoE) document and regularly reviewing activity for compliance. To support our global collections, we also align the RoE to the local laws within the places that the collectors are physically located. Maintaining this single, shared ethical baseline ensures operational coherency across the globe and the long-term, sustainable coverage of key geographies and communities.
This foundation and focus on operational security to protect our sources ensures the long-term resilience of our counter-threat operation. As a result, our customers are shielded from the inherent risks of engaging with threat actors and assured the intelligence they use to protect their organization is reliable and properly sourced.
Every team behind the Intel 471 Intelligence Machine coordinates to transform our global collection and analyses into your strategic asset, helping satisfy your risk and business use cases. With our single purpose to protect our customers, we help you anticipate adversaries, detect malware early, prevent fraud, proactively hunt threats, and mitigate exposures to protect your assets, operations and people.
Each of our solutions — Cyber Threat Exposure, Cyber Threat Intelligence and Cyber Threat Hunt — is unified in a single cyber intelligence platform, Verity471. This unified intelligence transforms intelligence into action, enabling users to focus on timely, relevant and contextualized information that matters most to their organization. The platform consolidates real-time CTI data, reporting and tools for security teams to operationalize in their processes and platforms.
Because each solution is housed within Verity471, connections between exposures, CTI and hunt packages are automatically surfaced to rapidly convert insight into action. Verity471 Exposure modules help customers understand where they are most vulnerable, leveraging CTI to contextualize risk and prioritize remediation. The Hunt modules help security operations identify undetected threats, reduce the cost of breaches and proactively validate security controls. A rich ecosystem of integrations connect the Intel 471 Intelligence Machine to customer platforms to enable automated decision-making in detection, response and remediation.
