evaluating-threat-intelligence-platforms
Evaluates and selects Threat Intelligence Platform (TIP) products based on organizational requirements including feed integration capability, STIX/TAXII support, workflow automation, analyst interface, and total cost of ownership. Use when conducting a TIP procurement, migrating between TIP solutions, or assessing whether the current TIP meets program maturity requirements. Activates for requests involving ThreatConnect, MISP, OpenCTI, Anomali, EclecticIQ, or TIP procurement decisions.

# Evaluating Threat Intelligence Platforms
## When to Use
Use this skill when:
- Conducting a formal RFP or vendor evaluation for a TIP solution
- Assessing whether the current TIP (e.g., MISP) needs to be replaced or augmented as the CTI program scales
- Establishing evaluation criteria aligned to organizational maturity and budget
**Do not use** this skill for evaluating feed quality independently of the TIP — feed evaluation is a separate workflow focused on data quality rather than platform capabilities.
## Detection Gaps & Validation
- **PoC coverage gaps:** vendor demos use curated feeds. Validate against YOUR top 5 feeds and YOUR SIEM, not the vendor's sample data - STIX 2.1 import that works on clean bundles often fails on real-world malformed objects.
- **STIX/TAXII version mismatch:** a TIP advertising "STIX support" may only do STIX 2.0 or partial 2.1 (missing `infrastructure`/`grouping` SDOs or `sighting` SROs). Test round-trip export/import of every SDO/SRO type you actually use.
