Flashpoint has introduced updates to its threat intelligence capabilities, designed to help convert security data into actionable insights. Unveiled at the RSA Conference 2026, these capabilities aim to move from threat visualisation to connecting adversarial activity with organisational assets.

Among these developments is Threat-Informed External Attack Surface Management (EASM). Traditional tools that map an organisation’s digital footprint can generate large volumes of exposed services and vulnerabilities. Flashpoint’s EASM is designed to go beyond basic asset discovery by continuously mapping internet-facing assets to vulnerability intelligence. This approach is intended to help teams focus on vulnerabilities that are being actively targeted by threat actors, supporting risk prioritisation.

The introduction of Business-Aligned Priority Intelligence Requirements (PIRs) is intended to align security activities with business priorities. In many cases, undefined intelligence priorities can make it difficult for teams to demonstrate measurable outcomes aligned with organisational goals. Flashpoint’s integration of PIRs within its platform provides a framework in which intelligence alerts and investigations are tied to business objectives, supporting a more structured and aligned approach to threat intelligence.

The Managed Attribution Browser provides a secure, non-persistent environment for analysts to conduct investigations. It allows for the use of anonymous and temporary browsing sessions, helping reduce the operational risks associated with interacting with suspicious links or communities. This can support investigations into areas such as ransomware sites or encrypted messaging platforms without exposing personal or organisational systems.

Flashpoint’s capabilities are designed to support the use of threat intelligence data for risk reduction by addressing challenges in prioritisation, alignment, and secure investigation, with the aim of supporting more targeted security responses aligned with organisational priorities.
