As organizations adapt to the ever-changing cyber threat landscape, they increasingly depend on threat intelligence feeds to remain informed about the latest malicious activities and safeguard their digital assets. These feeds provide real-time, actionable information on a variety of cyber threats, encompassing elements such as IP addresses, domains, malware hashes, and email addresses. However, the very resource designed to protect an organization can also become its Achilles’ heel when threat actors poison these feeds, potentially compromising networks and systems. In this blog post, we delve into the significance of proper curation and validation of artifacts as a means to counter the risks linked to threat intelligence feed poisoning.

As organizations continue to embrace digital transformation, software development has become a critical part of their operations. However, with the rise of cyber threats and data breaches, security has become a top concern for many organizations.
A methodology that integrates security practices into the DevOps process.
SecOps is a collaborative approach that brings together security professionals, developers, and operations teams to ensure that security is incorporated throughout the entire software development lifecycle. By integrating security into the development process, SecOps helps to identify and address security vulnerabilities earlier, reducing the likelihood of security breaches and data leaks.
One of the primary benefits of SecOps is enhanced security. By incorporating security into the development process, organizations can identify and address security vulnerabilities earlier in the development lifecycle. This means that security issues can be remediated before they become major problems, reducing the likelihood of security breaches and data leaks.
In today’s fast-paced business environment, time to market is critical. SecOps helps teams to identify and resolve security issues earlier in the development cycle, reducing delays and accelerating time to market. By reducing the time it takes to get products and services to market, organizations can stay ahead of the competition and meet the needs of their customers more effectively.
SecOps fosters collaboration between security, development, and operations teams, breaking down silos and enabling teams to work together more effectively. This collaboration helps to ensure that security is integrated into the development process from the outset, rather than being an afterthought. By working together, teams can identify and address security issues more effectively, reducing the likelihood of security incidents and data breaches.
Early identification and remediation of security vulnerabilities can save organizations money in the long run. By identifying and addressing security issues earlier in the development process, organizations can avoid costly security incidents and data breaches. This can result in significant cost savings, as well as reducing the risk of reputational damage.
Finally, SecOps helps organizations to meet regulatory requirements and standards, such as GDPR, HIPAA, and PCI DSS, by incorporating security into the software development process from the outset. By ensuring that security is integrated into the development process, organizations can avoid costly fines and penalties for non-compliance.
SecOps is a powerful approach to security that can help organizations to build more secure software, reduce costs, and accelerate time to market. By integrating security into the development process, organizations can identify and address security vulnerabilities earlier, reduce the risk of security incidents and data breaches, and meet regulatory requirements and standards. As organizations continue to embrace digital transformation, SecOps will become an increasingly critical part of their operations.
At Léargas Security, we provide several integration points for SecOps and SDLC.
In the present-day, interconnected world, businesses confront an expanding threat landscape. To safeguard themselves from cyber threats, organizations rely on threat intelligence, which is one of the most valuable tools available. However, the effectiveness of threat intelligence hinges on the quality of its data. That’s why normalization and scoring of threat intelligence artifacts are two indispensable procedures that guarantee high-quality data.
