Cyber Threat Intelligence
Built for action, not alerts.
Your Forward Observer
It's hard enough keeping up with what's happening inside your organisation. You also need to keep pace with external threats that can become realities within hours, long before official alerts are even issued. It takes expert knowledge and a swift response to prevent external threats from becoming tangible business problems.
The basics
What is cyber threat intelligence?
Our cyber threat intelligence (CTI) services help your organisation understand which threats matter most, even those still on the distant horizon.
By combining threat research, dark web monitoring, and contextual analysis, CTI turns external threat information into practical actions that strengthen detection, response, and risk management.
Your exposure
So what is my actual risk?
Credentials leaks, impersonation domains appear overnight, and criminal marketplaces trade in stolen data long before a traditional alert ever fires. Our CTI capability provides continuous visibility into these risks.
Tarian Cyber's CTI isn't about more data. It's about meaning and risk reduction. We combine automation with senior analyst validation to deliver intelligence that keeps you informed, protected, and ready to act.
How it works
How does our CTI service work?
We operate from within our 24x7 SOC, ensuring every insight connects directly into your security operations and response workflows.
Risk and situational awareness
Our senior analysts continuously monitor, track, and interpret activity across the dark web, suspicious domains, breach repositories, and threat actor ecosystems. Potential threats are identified early, validated quickly and assessed against your organisation.
Validation and action
Every detection is validated by our experienced analysts. They watch what's happening around your organisation, not just inside it, and turn noise into clear, actionable insights and a coordinated response.
Tangible impact
Our CTI helps reduce exposure and protect customer and stakeholder trust. From brand protection and credential safeguarding through to supporting proactive takedowns, the focus is on reducing the window between exposure and action.

The difference
What sets our CTI service apart?
We built the capability ourselves, our analysts operate it, and intelligence flows directly into our SOC and response processes.
Built and operated in-house
Our CTI capability is built and operated in-house by the same team responsible for our security operations. This gives our analysts continuous visibility beyond the customer environment without requiring clients to purchase, operate or manage another security platform. Our team also brings experience from leading global cyber threat intelligence organisations.
Intelligence you can act on, not a backlog of alerts.
We don't just surface threats. We give them meaning by contextualising them against your organisation, your user base, and your industry.
High-value analyst-drafted intelligence reports.
Delivered monthly and reviewed quarterly, our CTI reporting provides alerts on active exposures and detections, insights into emerging threat campaigns and seasonal trends, and industry-relevant context to support strategic planning.
Continuous protection.
Our CTI is integrated with our Managed Detection and Response (MDR) service at no additional charge. You gain continuous protection and intelligence without additional platforms or overheads.
Foresight and planning, not regrets.
CTI gives you earlier visibility into emerging threats and external exposures, helping your team prioritise risk and act before those issues develop into incidents.
See threats before they become problems.
Most security teams react once the damage is visible. With Tarian CTI, you'll detect fake domains before they cause chaos, identify compromised credentials before they're exploited, and understand threat actor intent before they target your brand.

Why it matters
Why is CTI a must-have?
No organisation can afford to wait until a threat becomes a crisis. By then, the damage is often already done.
With CTI, your organisation can identify which threats are most relevant to your environment, industry, and risk profile. By analysing threat actor activity, emerging attack techniques, exposed credentials, and other intelligence sources, CTI enables security teams to prioritise risks, improve detection, strengthen incident response, and make more informed security decisions.
The result? A more proactive approach to cyber security and better protection against emerging threats.
Standalone or included
Is Tarian Cyber CTI a standalone service?
Yes. CTI is included as part of Tarian MDR at no additional charge but can also be delivered as a standalone service for organisations requiring dedicated external threat intelligence and monitoring.
As with everything we do at Tarian Cyber, you'll only ever work with senior analysts. Everyone on our team has years of industry experience and a passion for staying at the forefront of cyber security advancements.

FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
01What is cyber threat intelligence (CTI)?
Cyber threat intelligence is the process of collecting, analysing, and acting on information about external threats before they reach your organisation. It draws on sources including the dark web, breach repositories, criminal marketplaces, and threat actor networks to deliver intelligence your security team can act on - before a threat becomes a breach. Dark web monitoring involves scanning underground forums, criminal marketplaces, and hidden networks where stolen data, compromised credentials, and threat actor activity are traded. Threats typically appear on the dark web long before they surface inside your environment or trigger any official alert. Monitoring it gives your organisation advance warning to act early.
02What does Tarian Cyber's CTI service do?
Our CTI service continuously monitors your external threat environment for risks such as leaked credentials, impersonation domains, threat actor activity, and stolen data being traded on criminal platforms. Every detection is validated and contextualised, so your team receives clear, actionable intelligence rather than a backlog of unqualified alerts.
03How is cyber threat intelligence different from standard security alerts?
Good question! Standard security alerts tell you what has already happened inside your environment. Cyber threat intelligence looks outside it. CTI identifies threats that are forming before they reach your perimeter, giving your team time to act rather than react. The focus is on meaning and context, not data volume.
04What's the difference between CTI and MDR?
Managed Detection and Response (MDR) focuses on detecting and responding to threats inside your Microsoft environment. Cyber threat intelligence (CTI) focuses on what is happening outside it — threat actor activity, dark web exposure, and brand or credential risks that have not yet reached your perimeter. Together, they provide inside-out and outside-in protection.
05What does Tarian Cyber's CTI service monitor?
Our CTI monitors the dark web, suspicious domains, breach repositories, underground forums, and threat actor ecosystems. It covers leaked credentials, brand impersonation, fraudulent domains, and criminal marketplace activity — all contextualised against your organisation, industry, and user base.
06Is Tarian Cyber's CTI included with its MDR service?
Sure is! Tarian Cyber's CTI is integrated with its Managed Detection and Response (MDR) service at no additional charge. Organisations using Tarian MDR gain continuous external threat visibility without additional platforms, tools, or overhead costs.
07Is Tarian CTI available as a standalone service?
Tarian's CTI operates as part of its 24x7 Microsoft-native SOC and is designed to work alongside its MDR, Incident Response, and Professional Services offerings. Contact us to discuss how CTI can be structured for your organisation.
