SANTA CLARA, Calif., July 3, 2026 – Recently, Forrester, the international research and advisory firm released its threat intelligence research report The External Threat Intelligence Service Providers Landscape, Q1 2026 [1]. Leveraging its long-standing technical expertise and consistent innovation in threat intelligence, NSFOCUS has been recognized as one of the report’s Notable Providers.
According to the report, “Threat intelligence strengthens strategic decision-making by delivering a clear, continuously updated view of the threat landscape, covering adversaries, malicious activities, and tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) targeting specific organizations, regions, and industries. Anchored in well-defined priority intelligence requirements (PIRs), threat intelligence cuts through noise to focus analysis on what truly matters to enterprises.”
This vision aligns perfectly with the philosophy of NSFOCUS threat intelligence team. In recent years, driven by the rapid advancement of emerging technologies such as AI and evolving customer security demands, the threat intelligence sector has shifted from volume-based accumulation to precision-driven quality. Customers increasingly value intelligence that is directly aligned with their business context and can effectively support security decision-making. Guided by PIRs, NSFOCUS threat intelligence combines customer profiling with AI-powered analytics to deliver an end-to-end operational framework spanning requirement alignment, multi-source intelligence aggregation, intelligent analysis, and actionable response. This closed-loop approach enables organizations to transform high-quality intelligence into effective security operations.
Looking ahead, NSFOCUS will continue advancing its “Smart Security 3.0” strategy, with AI serving as the core engine for transforming both the production and delivery of threat intelligence. From intelligently mining massive volumes of security data to generating high-value, actionable intelligence, and from static rule-based detection to dynamic risk prediction, NSFOCUS is committed to evolving its threat intelligence capabilities toward a more adaptive and self-improving model.
Meanwhile, NSFOCUS will continue expanding the application of threat intelligence across emerging security scenarios, including critical infrastructure protection and AI security. By delivering real-world security services tailored to diverse use cases, NSFOCUS empowers organizations to build cyber resilience, stay ahead of evolving threats, and safeguard trust in an increasingly complex digital world.
