- Configure Threat Intelligence External Sharing
- Take advantage of external sharing for secure, automated, and on-demand dissemination of threat intelligence using STIX 2.1 and MISP formats. Supports sharing across external agencies (CISA, ISAC), integrations (SIEMs,
EDRs), TAXII-based TISC instances, and inbound intelligence from external entities.
- About Report Templates in TISC
- Generate reports outside case management using base templates through a new reporting section in the Threat Intelligence Library.
- Configure custom MISP API feed
- Import events, attributes, and objects from the MISP server into the Threat Intelligence Library.
- Configure Custom Event Types for Timeline and Using Timeline in Investigation Canvas
- Define, visualize, and manage timeline events associated with nodes through the Investigation Canvas.
- Configure TISC add-on in Splunk
- Include optional attributes during configuration that can be stored in the Splunk KV Store.
- View Premium Threat Feed for CrowdStrike
- Map CrowdStrike Indicator Malicious confidence to TISC confidence.
- View Threat Intel Feeds
- Map specific source values to required observable fields during import process.

- Case Summarization
- Now Assist for Threat Intelligence Security Center brings generative AI capabilities directly into threat intelligence workflows. Analysts can generate concise AI-powered summaries of threat cases, including case overview, findings, key
actions taken, and recommended next steps.
- Automatic Threat Actor priority tagging
- Enable automatic tagging of threat actors based on their origin locations.
- Configure TISC add-on in Splunk
- TISC Add-on for Splunk Enterprise adds historical data ingestion and flexible expiration handling.
- Link nodes in the Relationship Graph
- The relationship graphs show immediate relationships to the home node for quick rendering of the graph. Filters enable analysts to narrow down to specific nodes and relationships.
- MITRE ATT&CK Technique Extraction Rules
- Enhanced MITRE™ extraction rule schema to add a combined Techniques and tactics regex extraction type.
- Threat Hunting Playbook
- Threat hunting playbook is now available out of the box. Analysts can use Playbooks for case management as a guided, stage-based workflow for investigations.
- View Premium Threat Feed for CrowdStrike
- Enhanced CrowdStrike premium Threat feed by adding
Malware to the record types to ingest. Threat Actor records now link to Malware through uses and
develops relationships, and to Location through originates-from and targets relationships. Report and Indicator records are linked to
Malware through associated-with. Threat Actor records ingested from CrowdStrike now represent capabilities, target industries, target
regions, target countries, and origins as structured tags rather than free-text, additional context fields. Users can use these attributes as filters.
- Have I Been Pwned integration
- Added support in TISC for Have I been pwned? (HIBP) observable enrichment, enabling analysts to identify whether observables have been exposed in known data breaches instances.
- Configure Tagging Rules in TISC
- Introduced automated tagging of RSS feed records using configurable tagging rules to apply tags and taxonomies.
- Create a CWE record
- Introduced CWEs as related entities with support for relationship linking.
- Create Remediations
- Introduced remediations as related entities with support for relationship linking and added support for managing remediations.
- Create a Product
- Introduced products as related entities with support for relationship linking.
- Create a Vendor to a Vulnerability
- Associated vendors as related entities with support for relationship linking.
- Automated creation of zero day vulnerability
- Automatically generate zero day vulnerability records from flagged RSS feeds with extracted and linked CPE, CWE, and CVE details for enhanced threat analysis. The catalog now includes the RSS feed for Google
Project Zero, enabling real-time detection of emerging threats.
- Create Vulnerability Assessment from a Vulnerability
- Initiate vulnerability assessments directly from identified issues for faster risk evaluation. Sample workflows and flow actions are included to automate the assessment process.
- Create Security Incident from a Vulnerability Record
- Create security incident records directly from detected vulnerabilities to expedite incident response and streamline threat management workflows.
- Enable security incidents for vulnerabilities
- View vulnerabilities and related intelligence in the TISC Context tab of Security Incident Response Workspace, allowing analysts to quickly access risk data during investigations without navigating to separate records.
