EclecticIQ Platform

ElecticIQ has an architecture where it usually needs decent computing power within the organisation. The central console along with the ELK servers and PostgreSQL sever needs their own space in a distributed setup. This could be a little too expensive for small-scale organisations. But for the organizations having mid to large-scale networks. EIQ is a decent solution to serve the purpose.

• Effective correlation of IOCs
• Averaging out the Confidence Score based on different intel sources.
• Serves as an excellent liaison points between the Intels and SIEM/SOAR stack.

• Misses on a global search bar which can directly gives out the result like VirusTotal.
• The GUI could be more friendlier. Too many filters and graphs may overwhlem the user sometimes.
• The ElasticSearch(searching for IOC in the in-house EIQ database) is a little slow compared to its counterparts.

The most important feature of EclecticIQ which gives it an edge compared to other TIPs is that it performs segregation of IOCs based on the relevance of it and the links that IOCs might have which other adversaries. The graphical format mapping where the user can easily figure out how the IOCs have connections to different binaries is another advantage. One can set the half-life time for an IOC which will reduce the confidence score as per one's need.

• Positive: Effective usage of all the premium Intels in a uniform fashion. No need to log in to each tool time and again.
• Positive: SOC Analysts spends lesser time on the internet and the analysis for the IOCs with graphical format is fulfilled by EclecticIQ.
• Negative: Higher costs over the resource utilization in the initial setup.
