Many organizations run MISP instances with other cybersecurity tools and OSINT for data-driven investigations. Investigators can integrate both internal and external data to map with MISP data in various ways. This blog details how to look up information directly in the MISP community using MISP Transforms on Maltego Graph, highlighting its seamless integration for efficient and comprehensive investigations.
The JTAN (Joint Threat Analysis Network) Project, co-funded by the European Union’s CEF program, addresses the critical need for efficient and effective threat intelligence sharing among cybersecurity teams. As cyber threats grow in complexity and scale, the ability to quickly exchange and analyze threat data across organizations has become essential for maintaining robust security.

We are excited to announce the release of MISP v2.4.190. This latest version introduces a slew of new features, improvements, and fixes designed to streamline operations and enhance security measures for our users.
Kunai is an open-source security monitoring tool, specifically designed to address the threat-hunting and threat-detection problematic on Linux. It has been inspired by Microsoft Sysmon, to provide a Sysmon alike experience to the end user. However, it comes with some more advanced features such as fine grained event filtering, detection rules and IoC matching. In this blog post, we are going to introduce how to implement real time MISP IoC matching in a very short amount of time.

Introducing Standalone Functionality to MISP Modules: A New Era of Flexibility and Efficiency
In the ever-evolving landscape of information security, the need for adaptable and efficient tools has never been greater. The MISP project, known for facilitating the sharing of structured threat information, has taken a significant leap forward. We’re excited to announce a pivotal enhancement to the misp-modules, a collection of modules for MISP, extending their functionality to operate not only as an integral part of MISP but also as a standalone web application.
We are pleased to announce the immediate release of MISP 2.4.186, which includes two major new feature called “Analyst Data” and “Collections” along with an extension to the MISP standard format.
