Leo now makes a difference between pharma drugs and recreational drugs

We heard from lots of biopharma users that the Drugs topic could be improved and clarified, considering the different meanings it has.

We are excited to announce that you can now prioritize either pharmaceutical drugs or recreational drugs.

We have taught Leo to understand if an article is about pharma drugs or recreational ones to improve the relevance of his prioritization.

GET LEO

Let me show you how it works.

Pharmaceutical Drugs

Let’s imagine that you have a Science Journals feed and want to track updates about drugs treating cancer. Let’s train Leo to read this feed and cut through the noise for you.

Click ‘Train Leo’ and search for the new #Drugs (pharmaceutical) topic

Leo knows how to recognize articles about pharmaceutical drugs

You can see a preview of all the articles that Leo has recognized as related to pharmaceutical drugs and cancer. These articles will be prioritized in your feed.

Recreational Drugs

Now, you can do the same with recreational drugs. Let’s say you want to prioritize articles that are at the intersection of recreational drugs and epilepsy.

New Feature
Streamline your open-source intelligence

150,000 cybersecurity professionals use Feedly to keep up with the latest security news and research insights about critical threats (vulnerabilities, malware, data breaches, threat actor groups, etc.)

Cybersecurity is a game of foresight. It is a chessboard where hackers and defenders are looking to checkmate each other.Learning more about the tactics, techniques, and procedures used by hackers can help you better prepare against them, saving you the cost and headaches that come with a breach or attack. The cost of ransomware attacks in the U.S. surpassed $7.5 billion in 2019.

But information gathering is tedious: hundreds of new articles and tweets need to be reviewed and triaged every day. Finding critical threats in that sea of information is time-consuming and overwhelming.

Today, we’re excited to launch Feedly for Cybersecurity: a collection of integrations and Leo models that help you cut through the noise, break barriers between team silos, and streamline your threat intelligence.

Try Feedly for Cybersecurity

Leo is your AI research assistant. Ask him to read your security feeds and prioritize what matters to you:

Vulnerabilities, CVE, CVSS, and exploits

Malware, adware, ransomware, bots, …

Threat actor groups

Research and prepare for the latest malware threats without the information overload

Cybersecurity is a game of foresight. It’s a chessboard on which attackers and defenders are constantly looking for checkmate. 

Hackers launch a new ransomware attack every 14 seconds. They’re increasingly more capable and sophisticated. Learning how they plan attacks, what techniques they use, and who they’re targeting, can make you so much better prepared. You’ll save the cost and headache of a cyber assault too. This is especially important considering that the cost of ransomware attacks in the U.S. alone surpassed $7.5 billion in 2019.

But investigating malware threats is tedious. Hundreds of new articles and tweets need to be reviewed and triaged every day. Finding critical threats in that sea of information is time-consuming and overwhelming.

We want to help you streamline your tactical and operational open-source intelligence, so that you can better protect your environment.

That’s why we’ve taught Leo, your AI research assistant, to recognize malware threats. You can ask him to read your security feeds and prioritize what’s relevant to you, your sector, and your environment.

Let’s imagine that you work in a threat intelligence team and are responsible for researching and analyzing the threat landscape. You’re particularly interested in evolving malware threats (including ransomware and malvertisement).

Cut through the noise

You can train Leo to read your Security News feed and prioritize articles related to malware.

Leo prioritizes malware articles in your Security News feed

Leo continuously reads the thousands of articles published in those feeds. It’s an efficient way to cut through the noise and keep up with the evolving malware landscape without the overwhelm.

You’re in control

Leo has been trained to understand broad topics like malware, as well as hundreds of specific malware types like malvertisement, ransomware, adware, bots, rootkits, spyware, etc.

Asking Leo to prioritize malware in your Security News feed is as simple as creating a new Topic priority and selecting ‘malware’ as the topic.

Ask Leo to prioritize malware threats in your Security News feed

You can combine topics with +AND and +OR and create even more targeted priorities for Leo. For example, use +AND to focus on malware related to Android or top companies in your sector.

Refine the priority to malware and Android

You can also ask Leo to look for a specific type of malware like malvertisement or ransomware.

Continuously learning and getting smarter

Leo is smart. He continuously learns from your feedback. When Leo is wrong, you can use the ‘Less Like This’ down arrow button to let him know that an article he’s prioritized isn’t about malware.

Let Leo know when he’s wrong

Break down silos

Bring your research team into the picture. They can create a Threat Intel Report Board and save the most critical insights they discover in their Feedly. Then everyone with the same Board can leave notes and highlight the biggest threats. 

We’ve seen teams create tactical and operational Boards. For instance, a Vulnerability Report can be built up with information for those that deal with security procedures, while strategic CISO Newsletters can keep management up to speed about malware and your planned response.

Articles bookmarked in a Board can be shared with the rest of the team via daily newsletters, Slack and Microsoft Teams notifications, or pushed to other apps using the Feedly Cybersecurity API.

Research threat actor groups and learn more about their tactics, techniques, and procedures, without the overwhelm

Cyber attacks continue to wreak havoc around the world. The actors waging these wars don’t just care about fraud either. They’re part of criminal organisations. Foreign governments stealing data for defense or national interests. Even terrorists or activists driven to disrupt and cause harm. 

What’s more, they’re increasingly capable and sophisticated. It’s a growing threat that can strike anyone at any time.

When you learn about threat actors’ tactics and motivations, you can better prepare against them, saving you the costs and headaches that come with a breach or attack. 

But there’s so much content to wade through when investigating these threat actors. It’s like fishing blind in an ocean. You’ll never know what’s coming back on the hook. More time and stress is spent on finding information about the threat, rather than acting on it. You can be overwhelmed. 

We’re passionate about helping you refine and streamline your open-source intelligence. That’s why we’ve taught Leo, your AI research assistant, to recognize threat actor groups. He can find them in your Feedly security feeds, prioritizing articles related to the actors and sectors you care about.

try feedly for cybersecurity

Let’s imagine that you work in the telecommunications sector, and you’re researching the tactics and motivations of MuddyWater, an Iranian threat actor group.

Cut through the noise

You can train Leo to read all your cybersecurity, foreign affairs, and cyber warfare sources, and prioritize articles related to MuddyWater.

Prioritize a threat actor

Leo continuously reads the articles in your feeds and prioritizes the ones that mention MuddyWater (or any of its aliases). It’s a powerful and effective way to keep up with their latest techniques, tactics, and procedures.

You’re in control

Leo has been trained to recognize all the threat actor groups referenced by the MITRE ATT&CK framework. This is a list of common names for hacking groups, as recognized by the global security community.

Asking Leo to prioritize MuddyWater in your security feed is as simple as creating a new Topic priority and selecting ‘MuddyWater’ as the topic.

Enter a threat actor alias in the topic field

When you prioritize MuddyWater, Leo will also look for other synonyms for that group like Seedworm and TEMP.Zagros.

You can combine topics with +AND and +OR to create even more targeted priorities for Leo. For example, use +AND to combine an actor group with an attack vector or a sector. This narrows his focus further so you find exactly what you’re looking for.

Continuously learning and getting smarter

Because Leo is integrated with the MITRE ATT&CK framework, it’s continuously learning and getting smarter. As new groups or aliases are identified, they’ll be automatically updated in your Feedly.

Break down silos

As you search and discover new content, share insights with your research team. Together, you can create a Threat Intel Report Feedly Board and bookmark the most critical insights you discover. You can also add notes and highlights about why a threat is high-priority.

We’ve already seen security teams create tactical Boards, such as a Vulnerability Report, to share with their operations experts. You might also want to build a CISO Newsletter to keep your management updated. It’s all possible within Feedly.  

Articles bookmarked in a Board can be shared with the rest of the team via daily newsletters, Slack or Microsoft Teams notifications, or pushed to other apps using the Feedly Cybersecurity API.
