Hello, and welcome back.
In this video, I'd like to give you a tour of Cisco's Talos.
So let's begin with the actual URL.
This is the URL.
It's talosintelligence.com.
And I'm going to do this demo prior to a Cisco login.
So if you want to follow along, you can.
Over time, if they modify their website a little bit,
that's perfect acceptable.
We're going to take a look at some
of the big-picture features and functions
we can get from Talos's website.
So right here on the home page, it has some graphics for us.
If we scroll down a little bit, it's WEBVTT X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000
If we scroll down a little bit, it's
showing us the legend here.
So blue represents legitimate email.
The orange, this color here, represents spam.
And this one right here, the green, represents malware.
This is real time too.
Check it out.
Those guys are busy with some serious spam.
And if we click on that, it'll give us
more details about that.
Wow, look at that.
That's not good.
All right, so that's the homepage.
And then let me give you an introduction here
to some of the various parts.
Then we'll dig into them in subsequent videos.
If we click on Software, this is pretty darn cool.
So here under Software, one of the benefits WEBVTT X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000
So here under Software, one of the benefits
of having this right here on talosintelligence.com
is that you don't have to wonder if we're downloading something
that has a virus or malware in it because a lot of times,
attackers-- they'll make something available,
and then they'll inject or package
some kind of malicious code with that software.
So you install it.
You think you're installing something good,
but you're getting some malware alongside of it.
So here, we have Snort and ClamAV and several other tools
that we can use.
And if we just click on one of them,
like Snort, to learn more about it, there's an overview. WEBVTT X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000
like Snort, to learn more about it, there's an overview.
And then there's options here for downloading Snort,
going to the website.
And assuming we're here at talosintelligence.com,
can assume that all these links, all this content, is good.
Next, we have Vulnerability Information
and Microsoft Advisories.
We'll do a separate video just on Vulnerability Information
and how to read the reports.
Then there's the Reputation Center, which is amazing.
So here in the Reputation Center,
we can go ahead and specify a URL or an IP
address or a domain and get more information regarding
its reputation.
So if we want to check and see if anything is malicious or not WEBVTT X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000
So if we want to check and see if anything is malicious or not
or is known to have a lot of malicious content,
this is a great way of doing it.
If we scroll down, we have options for file reputation,
options for AMP.
And we also have intelligence categories.
We'll also cover this tab, Reputation Center,
in a separate video coming right up as well.
Here's a link for the Library for additional information,
including presentations.
And one of the benefits of getting
these directly here from talosintelligence.com
is that we don't have to really wonder, is this vetted?
Is this legit?
Is this really happening? WEBVTT X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000
Is this really happening?
If Talos has it on their site, it's
a good bet it's very relevant and very real.
There's a tab for Incident Response.
And this is primarily going to benefit
those people who have contracts and support
agreements with Talos.
And there's also tabs for Careers, a link for their blog,
a link for podcasts.
And then the About has contact information
about how to reach the secret intelligence
team, the Talos team at Cisco.
So now that we've had a peek at their website,
there are some amazing tools we can
use on that website for free regarding vulnerability
information. WEBVTT X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000
information.
And that's what I'd like to talk with you about and demonstrate
in the very next video.
So I'll see you there in just a moment.
Meanwhile, I hope this has been informative for you,
and I'd like to thank you for viewing.
