Want To Detect Incidents Before It’s Too Late? You Need Threat Intelligence

The difference between a minor security incident and a devastating breach often comes down to one critical factor: how quickly you can detect and respond to a threat.

Hackers rarely target an isolated business: they typically launch campaigns that hit multiple companies with similar tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs).

This means, by the time an attack hits you, it’s likely already been executed against other organizations. 

Why Threat Intelligence Is Your Early Warning System 

The challenge here is that attacks are becoming more sophisticated and widespread.

The opportunity is that if you have access to fresh, comprehensive threat intelligence data, you can detect these threats before they cause significant damage to your organization.  
 
When a suspicious IP address, domain, or file hash appears in your environment, there’s a high probability that the same indicator has already been observed in attacks against other market players. 
 
Fresh threat intelligence data provides you with: 

• Real-time indicators from ongoing campaigns targeting organizations similar to yours. 
• Behavioral patterns of emerging threats before they become widespread. 
• Attribution information that helps you understand the threat actor’s methods and motivations. 
• Contextual analysis that goes beyond simple indicator matching. 

Since over 15,000 SOC teams use it to investigate recent attacks, ANY.RUN’s Threat Intelligence Lookup serves as a comprehensive source for fresh threat data, offering more than just basic indicator searches.

Through advanced sandbox analysis, it provides a complete picture of threat behavior, helping security teams understand not just what they’re dealing with, but how these threats operate and evolve.  

Cut MTTR With Instant Threat Insights At No Cost 

Threat Intelligence Lookup offers a free plan, which provides immediate value to organizations of all sizes.

The free tier arms security analysts with access to essential intelligence, allowing them to search for information on indicators and threats without any upfront cost.

Suppose your security team detects a suspicious IP address in your system logs. By running it through TI Lookup with a free plan, the team can instantly identify that the IP is associated with RedLine stealer:  

destinationIP:”91.92.252.249″ 

This quick search gives analysts a confirmed malicious IP for EDR systems, relevant indicators like ports and mutexes, and the understanding that the attack is ongoing. 

Beyond simple identification, the service finds in the Sandbox real-world malware samples where this IP was used, giving you context to assess the threat’s severity and respond effectively.  

Analyses are available with a limitation on the free plan, adding to the capabilities for rapid incident response. 

Optimize SOC Performance And Resources With Rich Data and Automation 

While the free plan is a great starting point, the Premium version of Threat Intelligence Lookup unlocks a wealth of additional data and automation capabilities, enabling you to scale your threat detection efforts.

With the Premium plan, you gain access to over 40 types of indicators and all search operators.

This enables more complex and diverse threat investigations that deliver actionable data to inform your entire security strategy. 

Another example. With a full access to TI Lookup capabilities, you can search for a dubious mutex:  

syncObjectName:”rmc-pjx7d8″ 

The search reveals the mutex’s attribution to Remcos RAT and sorts out sandbox detonations to observe the malware’s behavior and gather additional IOCs.  

The Premium plan also allows you to automate threat intelligence workflows and reduce response times by integrating TI Lookup via API and SDK with your security tools (e.g., SIEM, TIP, or SOAR systems).

Proactive Defense: Stay Ahead Of Emerging Threats 

Threat Intelligence Lookup doesn’t just help you react it enables proactive defense.

By subscribing to real-time updates on your search queries, you can stay informed about the latest threats and adapt your defenses accordingly.

For example, to receive updates on malicious domains associated with Lumma stealer, click the bell icon in the top right corner of the search results and click “Subscribe”.  

threatName:”lumma” AND domainName:”” 

This proactive approach means your detection systems are updated with the latest indicators almost as soon as they’re identified, often before these threats begin targeting your organization directly. 

Conclusion: Fuel Better Business Decisions With Threat Intelligence 

Investing in comprehensive threat intelligence pays back in multiple ways: 

• Reduced Dwell Time: Early detection means threats spend less time in your environment, reducing potential damage. 

• Improved Analyst Efficiency: Instead of researching threats from scratch, analysts have immediate access to comprehensive background information. 

• Proactive Defense: Staying ahead of threats rather than constantly reacting to them. 

• Better Decision Making: Understanding the full threat landscape helps prioritize security investments and responses. 

Threat intelligence isn’t just about understanding what happened – it’s about understanding what’s happening and what’s likely to happen next. 

With threat actors increasingly targeting multiple organizations in coordinated campaigns, the intelligence gathered from one attack becomes invaluable for preventing the next one.

Whether you’re using the free plan to investigate a single indicator or harnessing the Premium plan’s automation and extensive indicator types, Threat Intelligence Lookup empowers you to protect your business before it’s too late.
