IntelOwl is a threat intelligence management and enrichment platform built to reduce the manual work involved in checking files and observables across many separate sources.
Security analysts can submit items such as IP addresses, domains, URLs, hashes or files and orchestrate multiple analysis and intelligence services from one system. It combines external intelligence lookups with locally available malware-analysis tooling, making it useful for SOC workflows, investigations and repeatable enrichment pipelines. Results can be examined through its web interface or consumed programmatically by other security applications.
This is free and open source software.
Key Features
- REST API implemented with Django and Python for submitting and retrieving analyses.
- Built-in web interface with dashboards, forms and analysis visualisations.
- Plugin framework separating analysers, connectors, pivots, visualisers, ingestors and other components.
- Analysers that query external intelligence services or run locally available analysis tools.
- Connectors for exporting results to platforms including MISP and OpenCTI.
- Pivots for chaining analyses so one result can trigger further processing.
- Playbooks for turning recurring analysis procedures into repeatable workflows.
- Ingestors for automatically bringing streams of files or observables into the platform.
- Common data models for mapping information returned by different analysers into consistent structures.
- Investigation features for recording findings, correlating information and collaborating with other analysts.
- Support for file analysis covering document, executable, Android and network-capture workflows.
- Official client libraries that help integrate IntelOwl into existing security stacks.
