Abstract

Threat intelligence sharing is an important countermeasure against the increasing number of security threats to which companies and governments are exposed. Its objective is the cross-organizational exchange of information about actual and potential threats. In recent years, a heterogeneous market of threat intelligence sharing platforms (TISPs) has emerged. These platforms are inter-organizational systems that support collaborative collection, aggregation, analysis and dissemination of threat-related information. Organizations that consider using TISPs are often faced with the challenge of selecting suitable platforms. To facilitate the evaluation of threat intelligence sharing platforms, we present a framework for analyzing and comparing relevant TISPs. Our framework provides a set of 25 functional and non-functional criteria that support potential users in selecting suitable platforms. We demonstrate the applicability of our evaluation framework by assessing three platforms: MISP, OTX and ThreatQ. We describe common features and differences between the three platforms.
