About App
Alien Vault Open Threat Exchange (OTX) is a threat data platform that allows security researchers and threat data producers to share, research, and investigate new threats. Alien Vault OTX DirectConnect API allows security teams to synchronize the Threat Intelligence that is available in the OTX platform to the tools that security teams use to monitor the environment.
The Alien Vault OTX app allows security teams to connect with the enterprise version of Alien Vault OTX platform to get details about NIDs, Correlation Rules, and CVE IDs and check the reputation of domains, hosts, URLs, IP addresses, and hash values. The Alien Vault OTX app is configured with the Orchestrate application to perform the following actions:
