Available Premium Intelligence

Premium Intelligence products that your company is not subscribed to will display below the IOC Results Header.

The card will be dimmed if the IOC is not found in a product's threat intelligence. If it was included, the product will display in full color with a blue bar at the bottom.

Lists

The Lists panel will display all lists the IOC was found on at the time the search was performed. This includes all block, threat, and allow lists that are available to your company’s account.

The panel will include the list name, list type, and the timestamp the IOC was inserted on the list. For IPs found on Threat lists, the timestamp displayed is the earliest value for all associated entries. For domains, the timestamp displayed is the earliest value for the most specific match. A star next to a list name indicates it is a premium feed that is either included with your Enforce subscription, or was purchased by your company in the threatER Marketplace.

To view the list’s enabled state on your company’s policies, expand the chevron to the left of the list name. Every policy on your account will display and a check mark will display to the right of it if the list is enabled on that policy.

For threat lists, an additional table will display below the Policy table and include the Threat Category(s) and Score(s) of the IP.

Policy Enforcement

The Policy Enforcement panel will display all policies on your account and how that policy would enforce the IOC. Each policy row will display the Policy Name,  Verdict of the IOC on that policy (block or allow), and the Reason for the Verdict, which will be one of the following:

 

Reason

Description

Allow List

IOC is included on an Allow List that is enabled on the policy

ASN

IOC is included in an ASN that is set to "allow" or "block" on the policy

Block List

IOC is included on a Block list that is enabled on the policy

Country

IOC originates from a Country that is blocked on the policy

Threat List

IOC is included on a Threat list that is enabled on the policy

Policy

IOC was allowed because it was not specifically allowed or blocked on the policy, based on the criteria outlined above in one of the 5 other reasons

 

If the IOC was included on a Threat list, the threat Category and Score will display, as well as the Threshold setting for that category on each policy. If the IOC was flagged as more than one Threat Category, a chevron will display next to the first Category name listed. You can expand the chevron to view the other Threat Categories, Scores, and Threshold settings.
