Ashes CTIv1.3
Automated Operational Threat Intelligence - for SOC Teams
Ashes CTI is a Windows-native threat intelligence workstation built for Security Operations Centers (SOC) and MSSPs. It transforms private intelligence and raw OSINT feeds into structured, analyst-ready intelligence; summarized, enriched, mapped to MITRE ATT&CK, and exportable for operational use. The platform supports multilingual intelligence sources, STIX bundle ingestion, and automated extraction of indicators and detection artifacts from threat reports. Instead of manually parsing lengthy reports, analysts work with structured intelligence that can be directly integrated into existing detection workflows.
Turn private intelligence and OSINT feeds into ready-to-action intelligence: ingest → summarize → MITRE ATT&CK map → VT enrichment → Detection Rules (YARA/SNORT) → export (TAXII/STIX/CSV). Save hours each week and keep your analysts focused on decisions, not copy-paste.
Fair-use note: VT enrichment volume is governed by your VirusTotal API key (e.g., ~500/day on free keys; more on enterprise keys). No manual quota settings required.

FAQ
Do I need a VirusTotal subscription?
No. Start with a free VT API key; enrichment volume follows VT’s own limits. Enterprise keys enable higher throughput.
How does AshesCTI support threat intelligence analysts?
AshesCTI automates routine daily triage tasks freeing analysts to focus on deeper investigation and detection engineering.
Do you store customer data?
Processing happens locally in your Windows app with your database. We do not mine or resell your data.
Does it integrate with my stack?
Yes, export STIX/CSV/JSON and use them in your SIEM/EDR/TIP. Roadmap includes direct integrations.
