By providing real-time, high-quality threat intelligence, ESET enables businesses to respond swiftly to evolving cyber threats.
New APT Reporting Plans for Greater Accessibility

The APT Report Advanced and Ultimate plans also include the ESET AI Advisor, a generative AI-powered chatbot that delivers security insights in natural language. This tool aggregates APT report summaries, IoCs, and TTPs to generate YARA rules for swift threat mitigation. The Ultimate plan further allows direct engagement with ESET security analysts and threat hunters for personalized consultation.
Seamless Integration and Customization
ESET’s ETI service is flexible. It easily fits into current security systems through the ESET Connect API gateway. It integrates smoothly with major security platforms such as Microsoft Sentinel, IBM QRadar, Elastic, MISP, Filigran’s OpenCTI, Threat Quotient, and Stellar Cyber. This integration enhances visibility and simplifies cybersecurity management across various attack surfaces.
Commitment to High-Quality Threat Intelligence
“ESET is focused on boosting its cyber threat intelligence. “This helps customers react quicker to incidents and lower data breach risks,” said Juraj Malcho, ESET’s CTO. “Cyber threats cross borders. ESET’s wide reach in Europe and Asia helps us spot new dangers early. This keeps vital assets safe.””
Jean-Ian Boutin, Director of Threat Research at ESET, shared the company’s unique approach. He said, “Our intelligence comes from researchers in 11 R&D centers worldwide.” We stand out from competitors by using our own data. We analyze information from over 110 million users across more than 190 countries. This approach guarantees top-quality threat intelligence.”
ESET’s detection system analyzes more than 300,000 new malware samples each day. The company shares helpful insights with the public and security experts on its blog, WeLiveSecurity.com.
These improvements help ESET stay a leader in cyber threat intelligence. They give businesses the tools they need to fight against changing cybersecurity challenges.
