The challenge: Slow, fragmented malware analysis
Cyber threats evolve rapidly, with advanced persistent threats (APTs) and zero-day malware bypassing traditional defences. SOC analysts need a faster, more integrated way to analyse suspicious files and URLs - without switching between multiple tools.
Today’s SOC teams often rely on disconnected security solutions. When encountering a suspicious file or URL, analysts must manually submit samples to external sandboxes and correlate results with threat intelligence platforms (TIPs) - a time-consuming process that delays detection and response.
Without real-time behavioural analysis, it’s difficult to understand how malware operates - its evasion techniques, persistence mechanisms, network activity, and system impact. Moreover, failing to contextualize sandbox findings can lead to missed attack patterns and delayed mitigation.
Our solution: Bitdefender Sandbox Malware Analysis + EclecticIQ Threat Intelligence Platform
EclecticIQ’s integration with Bitdefender sandbox streamlines malware investigation and response, providing real-time threat intelligence and automated detection within a single platform. With this integration, analysts can:
✅ Submit suspicious files and URLs for detonation - directly within EclecticIQ's TIP.
✅ Receive detailed behavioral reports showing file modifications, registry changes, and network activity.
✅ Extract IOCs (hashes, IPs, domains) automatically and correlate them with known threats.
✅ Map Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures (TTPs) to the MITRE ATT&CK framework, enhancing threat contextualization.
✅ Automate threat response by forwarding sandbox-derived IOCs to SIEM, SOAR, EDR (Bitdefender GravityZone), and firewalls for real-time blocking.
This integration eliminates manual tool switching, ensures faster correlation of sandbox findings, and enhances threat hunting capabilities with deeper behavioural analysis.
Why this matters: Faster, smarter threat response
- Speed up investigations. With automated detonation and real-time analysis, threats are identified faster - no more waiting for external tools to generate reports.
- Improve threat contextualization. Bitdefender sandbox doesn’t just provide raw reports; it maps malware activity to known adversaries, attack campaigns, and intelligence sources - giving analysts a complete picture of emerging threats.
- Enhance SOC efficiency. By seamlessly integrating with SIEMs, SOAR platforms, and EDRs, Bitdefender sandbox eliminates manual correlation efforts, allowing analysts to detect, analyse, and act - all within EclecticIQ's TIP.
- Scalable, reliable malware analysis. Designed for high-throughput investigations, Bitdefender sandbox supports concurrent detonations, ensuring your SOC operates without bottlenecks.
Conclusion
As malware becomes more evasive and sophisticated, traditional security measures fall short. With Bitdefender sandbox integrated into EclecticIQ's TIP, analysts gain automated detections, enriched threat intelligence, and real-time insights - transforming malware analysis from a reactive process to a proactive defense strategy.
Whether you’re tackling a phishing-delivered payload or dissecting an APT-driven exploit, this integration ensures threats are detonated, analyzed, and neutralized - faster than ever.
