🧠 2. Our Approach
🔹 Context-First, API-Driven Integrations
🔹 Use Case Oriented Engineering
🔹 MITRE-Aligned Data Structures
[Environment Assessment] → [Feed Format & Tool Review] → [TIP Platform Configuration] → [IOC/TTP Mapping Integration] → [Automation Playbook Design] → [Validation & Testing] → [Operational Rollout]
🧪 3. Methodology
[Client Infra Review] → [TIP Platform Selection or Audit] → [Feed Format & Source Inventory] → [Custom Connector or STIX/TAXII Setup] → [IOC Correlation Design] → [MITRE ATT&CK Mapping] → [Test Cases Execution] → [Rollout & Training] → [Ongoing Support & Optimization]

📋 11. Sample IOC-TIP Mapping Checklist (Preview)
- Select suitable TIP based on organizational needs.
- Onboard data sources (feeds, OSINT, internal).
- Normalize and enrich ingested indicators.
- Tag and categorize indicators by campaign or actor.
- Set up workflows for IOC validation and triage.
- Enable alerting and correlation within TIP.
- Integrate TIP with SIEM, SOAR, and EDR tools.
- Define sharing policies (ISACs, partners).
- Monitor platform performance and usage.
- Maintain TIP hygiene through IOC aging policies.
