What it does

Evaluating Threat Intelligence Platforms is an agent skill from mukul975/Anthropic-Cybersecurity-Skills. 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.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.9k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 5 other files, including scripts and reference files (for example `references/api-reference.md` and `scripts/agent.py`).

It sits in Security, covering OSINT, Vendor and procurement management and Workflow automation. The repository describes itself as: 817 structured cybersecurity skills for AI agents · Mapped to 6 frameworks: MITRE ATT&CK, NIST CSF 2.0, MITRE ATLAS, D3FEND, NIST AI RMF & MITRE F3 (Fight Fraud) · agentskills.io…. The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Conducting a TIP procurement
  • Migrating between TIP solutions
  • Assessing whether the current TIP meets program maturity requirements

Example prompts

  • “Use the evaluating-threat-intelligence-platforms skill to evaluate and selects Threat Intelligence Platform (TIP) products based on organizational…”
  • “/evaluating-threat-intelligence-platforms”

Requirements

  • Python 3

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Define Evaluation Criteria
  2. Evaluate Major TIP Options
  3. Conduct Proof of Concept
  4. Score and Select
  5. Implementation and Onboarding Planning

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 54a7988. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Ships 1 file in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Evaluating Threat Intelligence Platforms loads about 1.9k tokens when it runs, and up to ~2.5k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 133 tokens; SKILL.md has 759 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~133
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.9k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~2.5k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

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.

Prerequisites

  • Documented CTI program requirements: team size, feed sources, integration targets, use cases
  • Budget range and procurement timeline
  • Technical staff who will administer the platform (Python/API experience for open-source TIPs)
  • List of current and planned integrations (SIEM, SOAR, EDR, firewalls)

Workflow

Step 1: Define Evaluation Criteria

Structure requirements into mandatory (M) and desired (D) categories:

Core TIP Functions:

  • M: STIX 2.1 import/export with TAXII 2.1 server
  • M: REST API for automated IOC ingestion and export
  • M: Indicator deduplication and TTL management
  • M: TLP classification enforcement
  • D: Built-in MITRE ATT&CK integration and technique tagging
  • D: Graph visualization of indicator relationships
  • D: Workflow automation for analyst triage

Integrations:

  • M: SIEM integration (Splunk, Sentinel, QRadar) via syslog, API, or native connector
  • M: EDR integration for IOC push (CrowdStrike, Defender, SentinelOne)
  • D: SOAR integration (XSOAR, Splunk SOAR) for playbook triggers
  • D: Ticketing system (ServiceNow, Jira) for intelligence task tracking

Operational:

  • M: Role-based access control with TLP-aware data segregation
  • M: Audit logging for all analyst actions
  • D: Multi-tenancy for MSSP use cases
Step 2: Evaluate Major TIP Options

MISP (Open Source):

  • Cost: Free (self-hosted infrastructure cost only)
  • Strengths: Largest community, 250+ modules, extensive ISAC usage, STIX 2.0 native
  • Weaknesses: Requires dedicated admin, limited visualization, UI dated
  • Best for: Budget-constrained teams with technical staff; government/ISAC sharing programs

OpenCTI (Open Source):

  • Cost: Free (self-hosted); paid SaaS at ~$3,000–$15,000/year
  • Strengths: Native STIX 2.1, graph visualization, ATT&CK integration, modern API
  • Weaknesses: Resource-intensive deployment (Elasticsearch, MinIO required)
  • Best for: Teams wanting open source with modern UX; SOC/CTI integration focus

ThreatConnect (Commercial):

  • Cost: $50,000–$500,000/year depending on scale
  • Strengths: End-to-end CTI lifecycle, playbook automation, TC Exchange marketplace, analyst workflow
  • Weaknesses: High cost; complex implementation; best value at larger scale
  • Best for: Mature enterprise CTI programs; MSSPs; red team/blue team integration

Anomali ThreatStream (Commercial):

  • Cost: $30,000–$200,000/year
  • Strengths: Strong feed aggregation, Splunk-native integration, extensive pre-built connectors
  • Weaknesses: Graph visualization weaker than OpenCTI; UI refresh lagging
  • Best for: Splunk-heavy environments; teams prioritizing feed volume over analysis workflows

EclecticIQ Platform (Commercial):

  • Cost: $40,000–$300,000/year
  • Strengths: STIX 2.1 native, collaborative intelligence workbench, strong European customer base
  • Weaknesses: Smaller partner ecosystem than ThreatConnect
  • Best for: Teams with MITRE ATT&CK-centric workflows; EMEA-focused organizations

Step 3: Conduct Proof of Concept

Request 30-day PoC from finalists. Test:

  1. Feed onboarding: Can your top 5 feeds be ingested within 4 hours?
  2. SIEM integration: Can enriched IOCs push to your SIEM in <5 minutes?
  3. ATT&CK mapping: Can analysts tag indicators with ATT&CK techniques efficiently?
  4. Report generation: Can the platform produce a tactical IOC bulletin with one click?
  5. API performance: Can the REST API handle 10,000 indicator queries per day?
Step 4: Score and Select

Use weighted scoring matrix (weight each criterion by organizational priority):

Criterion                 Weight   Vendor A   Vendor B
STIX 2.1 compliance       20%      95         85
SIEM integration          25%      90         70
ATT&CK mapping            15%      85         95
Cost (inverse)            20%      60         90
UI/analyst experience     10%      80         75
Vendor support quality    10%      85         80
TOTAL                     100%     82.0       81.5
Step 5: Implementation and Onboarding Planning

Plan 90-day implementation:

  • Week 1–2: Infrastructure deployment (cloud or on-prem)
  • Week 3–4: Feed onboarding and deduplication tuning
  • Week 5–6: SIEM/SOAR integration and testing
  • Week 7–8: Analyst workflow configuration and training
  • Week 9–12: Operational validation and go-live

Key Concepts

TermDefinition
TIPThreat Intelligence Platform — software for collecting, processing, analyzing, and disseminating cyber threat intelligence
TAXII ServerComponent of a TIP that serves STIX bundles to consuming systems on request
TC ExchangeThreatConnect's commercial marketplace for pre-built feed integrations and app connectors
Multi-tenancyTIP capability to serve multiple organizational units or customers with isolated data environments
DeduplicationProcess of identifying and merging duplicate indicators within a TIP to reduce analyst noise

Tools & Systems

  • MISP: Open-source TIP used by 6,000+ organizations; strongest ISAC/government community integration
  • OpenCTI: Modern open-source TIP with native STIX 2.1 and graph-based analysis
  • ThreatConnect: Enterprise commercial TIP with lifecycle management and SOAR playbook integration
  • Anomali ThreatStream: Commercial TIP with strong Splunk ecosystem integration
  • EclecticIQ: Commercial TIP with ATT&CK-centric workflow design

Common Pitfalls

  • Selecting TIP before defining requirements: Technology selection before use case definition leads to expensive mismatches.
  • Underestimating administration burden: MISP and OpenCTI require dedicated admin time (minimum 0.25 FTE); budget accordingly.
  • Ignoring data migration costs: Moving historical intelligence from one TIP to another is costly and often impractical for legacy systems.
  • Not testing SIEM integration in PoC: TIP value depends heavily on downstream integration quality; always test SIEM/SOAR connectivity during evaluation.
