Cortex vs MISP
GitHub Stats
About Cortex
Cortex is a powerful observable analysis and active response engine that pairs with TheHive to supercharge incident response workflows. It provides a unified API for running analyzers against observables - IP addresses, file hashes, domain names, URLs, email addresses, and more - using over 100 built-in analyzers that query services like VirusTotal, Shodan, PassiveTotal, MISP, MaxMind, AbuseIPDB, and many others. Analysts can submit observables individually or in bulk and receive structured reports with taxonomy-based classifications. Cortex also supports responders for active response actions like blocking IPs on firewalls, disabling user accounts, or quarantining endpoints. Its REST API and TheHive integration allow organizations to automate the tedious parts of IOC analysis while keeping analysts in control of decision-making.
About MISP
MISP (Malware Information Sharing Platform) is an open-source threat intelligence platform for gathering, sharing, storing, and correlating Indicators of Compromise (IOCs) of targeted attacks, threat intelligence, financial fraud information, vulnerability information, and counter-terrorism data. It provides a robust data model for structuring threat data, automatic correlation of attributes and indicators, flexible sharing groups for controlled distribution, and import/export in STIX, OpenIOC, and many other formats. MISP includes a built-in feed system for consuming external threat intelligence, a REST API for automation, and taxonomies and galaxies for consistent classification. It's used by CERTs, SOCs, threat intelligence teams, and law enforcement worldwide as their primary threat intelligence management platform.
