Criminal IP has announced a strategic partnership with Torq to integrate its cyber threat intelligence platform with the Torq AI SOC Platform. The integration enables security teams to automatically enrich threat indicators with real-time intelligence, helping organizations accelerate threat detection, investigation, and response while reducing manual analysis across multiple security tools.
Modern Security Operations Centers (SOCs) process thousands of alerts daily, often requiring analysts to manually gather intelligence from multiple platforms before determining whether an indicator represents a genuine threat. Criminal IP's integration with the Torq AI SOC Platform is designed to eliminate this manual process by delivering decision-ready cyber threat intelligence directly into existing security workflows.
The partnership combines Criminal IP's internet-scale threat intelligence with Torq's AI-powered security operations platform, allowing organizations to automatically assess the risk level of IP addresses, domains, and internet-facing assets while enabling faster incident response.
"Our platform was built to make internet-scale threat intelligence searchable and actionable in real time," said Byungtak Kang, CEO at Criminal IP.
"Partnering with Torq means that intelligence doesn't just inform a decision, but it executes one. Every IP, domain, and exposed asset Criminal IP analyzes can now drive automated responses the moment it's identified."
The integration enables the Torq AI SOC Platform to automatically query Criminal IP whenever a new indicator is detected. Criminal IP returns comprehensive intelligence that includes malicious reputation, suspicious activity, anonymization status, phishing detection, exposed services, vulnerabilities, and exploit information.
Using this enriched intelligence, the Torq AI SOC Platform evaluates the severity of threats and recommends or initiates the appropriate response path. This reduces investigation time while allowing security teams to focus on higher-priority incidents.
“Torq partners include some of the most prestigious cybersecurity companies in the world and we are excited to welcome Criminal IP to the fold,” said Eldad Livni, CINO and Co-Founder, Torq.
“Criminal IP is an example of an innovative vendor that delivers solutions with maximum impact as we realize the potential of the AI SOC, together. And that means joint offerings that combine cutting edge threat intelligence drawing from the deepest data pools with blazing fast AI-driven response, remediation, and mitigation. Together, Torq and Criminal IP will protect organizations from the ever-expanding spectrum of threats they’re confronted with every second of every day.”
Through the integration, organizations gain direct access to Criminal IP's extensive cyber threat intelligence capabilities, including:
These capabilities help security teams improve visibility across their attack surface while supporting proactive threat detection and faster incident response.
The integration is designed to improve multiple security workflows. Every incoming indicator is automatically enriched with Criminal IP intelligence before reaching analysts, reducing manual effort during investigations.
Confirmed malicious indicators can trigger automated containment and blocking actions across enterprise security environments. Additionally, analysts receive incident cases pre-populated with exposure details, service banners, vulnerabilities, and exploit information, enabling faster investigation of internet-facing assets.
The Criminal IP integration is now available for organizations using the Torq AI SOC Platform, further strengthening AI-driven security operations through automated threat intelligence and response capabilities.
