Security outfit Avast has partnered with Recorded Future delivering intelligence on common vulnerabilities and exploit prevalence (CVE) while Recorded Future contributes to its real-time intelligence reports.
The Recorded Future Intelligence Platform, it’s claimed, gives global organisations the ability to accelerate detection, decision making, and response times by putting real-time intelligence at the centre of security workflows and sending daily threat intelligence reports to its customers.
The insights from reports allow enterprises to prioritise alerts, calculate risk scores for patching, and make better decisions on how to handle a threat or cybersecurity incident – through a single, source of security intelligence.
Recorded Future Chief of Product and Engineering, Craig Adams, said Avast will help its clients prioritise their vulnerabilities based on exploitations they have seen directly from their tremendous global endpoint telemetry.
“We chose to partner with Avast not just for geographic reach but also to increase the breadth of our endpoint data collection and ensure data independence by diversifying our data sources.”
Michal Pechoucek, Chief Technology Officer at Avast, said, “The work that Recorded Future does is so important in helping enterprises spot and mitigate vulnerabilities. We are pleased to be able to collaborate with them and share our threat intelligence so they can better inform their customers. We look forward to working with them in an increased capacity in the future.”
