About FortiSIEM
“FortiSIEM brings together visibility, correlation, automated response, and remediation in a single, scalable solution. It reduces the complexity of managing network and security operations to effectively free resources, improve breach detection, and even prevent breaches. What’s more is that [the] architecture enables unified data collection and analytics from diverse information sources including logs, performance metrics, security alerts, and configuration changes. FortiSIEM combines the analytics traditionally monitored in separate silos of the security operations center (SOC) and network operations center (NOC) for a more holistic view of the security and availability of the business.” “FortiGuard Threat Intelligence and Indicators of Compromise (IOC) and Threat Intelligence (TI) feeds from commercial, open source, and custom data sources integrate easily into the security TI framework. This grand unification of diverse sources of data enables organizations to rapidly identify root causes of threats, and take the steps necessary to remediate and prevent them in the future. Steps can often be automated with new Threat Mitigation Libraries for many Fortinet products. External Threat Intelligence Integrations
- APIs for integrating external threat feed intelligence – Malware domains, IPs, URLs, hashes, Tor nodes
- Built-in integration for popular threat intelligence sources – ThreatStream, CyberArk, SANS, Zeus, ThreatConnect
- Technology for handling large threat feeds – incremental download and sharing within cluster, real-time pattern
matching with network traffic. All STIX and TAXII feeds are supported”

DNS-over-HTTPS (DoH) Domains
Benefits of the Malware Patrol DoH Data Feed
We developed this feed to help security teams monitor the use of DoH in their environment. Our tools actively search for new DoH servers on a continuous basis to keep this data fresh. DoH allows users to bypass the DNS-level controls and internet usage policies put in place to protect your network against known threats and threat actors are taking advantage of this by using DoH for C2 server connections, for example. As such, both incoming and outgoing DoH traffic should be closely monitored for indications of malicious activity.
