Tim is working as an analyst in an ABC organization. His organization had been facing many
challenges in converting the raw threat intelligence data into meaningful contextual information.
After inspection, he found that it was due to noise obtained from misrepresentation of data from
huge data collections. Hence, it is important to clean the data before performing data analysis using
techniques such as data reduction. He needs to choose an appropriate threat intelligence framework
that automatically performs data collection, filtering, and analysis for his organization.
Which of the following threat intelligence frameworks should he choose to perform such task?
D
