Cyber threat portal

Tier-3 Huntsman has launched Analyst Portal, that enables automated investigation, validation and resolution of cyber threats. It improves the accuracy of decisions, optimises the diagnosis of the nature of attacks, enhances the efficiency of security operations teams and reduces the time at risk when sophisticated cyber attacks occur.

The Analyst Portal™ collates and analyses all the relevant threat information available to the enterprise, automatically determining the context of a threat and verifying its severity. As a result, often stretched security analysts and SOC teams can diagnose and understand threats early in the attack life cycle from a single screen, despite the ever growing complexity of the cyber risk landscape.


"The challenge of understanding and responding to cyber threats is growing all the time,” said Peter Woollacott, CEO of Tier-3 Huntsman. “Organisations face a growing number of rapidly evolving attacks: simply keeping abreast of every potential threat requires a security team far larger than most can support. Real-time detection is an important part of threat resolution but ATRM is key to focusing on the threats that matter.”


“Quickly reducing the noise of false positives and benign occurrences to ensure that attention can be paid to real threats and incidents is vital, yet traditionally has been very difficult with solutions that just focus on detection alone.”


The Huntsman Analyst Portal™ automatically investigates and validates the severity of threats in real-time, before collating all the information necessary in a forensic case file for investigation. By streamlining the whole process, it can deliver up to 90% improvement in SOC resourcing and analyst efficiency. In trials with leading malware detection technologies, the Huntsman Analyst Portal™ automatically detected, contextualised and validated the relevant threat information in seconds translating all the threat information into precise actionable intelligence.


By providing fast and accurate information for timely threat mitigation and remediation the time that an enterprise remains exposed to a cyber risk and the chances of arbitrary interpretation of events can be drastically reduced.


Bringing high levels of automation to investigation and analysis workflows means the Analyst Portal™ significantly enhances the efficiency of the SOC function, enabling security and business stakeholders to have confidence in the integrity of their security decisions.


“A critical part of the security function’s role is giving confidence to stakeholders that security operations are functioning as they should,” continued Peter Woollacott. “By making understanding and resolving threats simpler and quicker, we have made it easy for teams to translate them into business risks for prioritisation and remediation. We are seeing a new era in the security space – Forrester research recently stated that CISOs and businesses could no longer rely on passive, manual procedures to defend against data breaches[1]. Automated, intelligent and swift responses are crucial to defending against an increasingly fluid cyber-security threat landscape.”


The Huntsman® Analyst Portal™ integrates fully with the Huntsman® defence-grade security platform, can be deployed as a stand-alone solution or can operate within the security ecosystem as a high-speed threat analysis and triage portal for other SIEM systems.
