SecIntel vs. Proofpoint Emerging Threat (ET) Intelligence

As cyber threats evolve and security risks escalate at a rapid pace, depending on a single device at the network's edge is inadequate for effectively detecting and mitigating these threats. Organizations must instead adopt a proactive threat-aware network that empowers security teams to focus on uncovering unknown threats, thus reducing potential risks to their operations. SecIntel enhances this threat-aware framework by delivering a continuous stream of aggregated and validated security information collected from Juniper and various other platforms. This solution provides up-to-date, actionable intelligence to SRX Series firewalls, MX Series routers, and enforcement tools on Juniper wireless access points, along with EX Series and QFX Series switches. It leverages curated threat feeds that encompass malicious IP addresses, URLs, certificate hashes, and information on domain usage. Moreover, it includes insights on infected hosts and custom threat feeds that enumerate all known compromised devices within the organization’s network. It also supports the incorporation of data from external sources, significantly improving the organization's threat management and prevention tactics through customized threat feeds. By developing such a robust threat-aware network, organizations can effectively address and adapt to the continuously shifting security environment while reinforcing their overall cyber resilience. This strategic approach not only enhances security posture but also fosters a culture of vigilance among security personnel.
