Campbell, Calif.: AlienVault, creator of OSSIM, the de facto standard open source SIEM (Security Information and Event Management), announced today the launch of the AlienVault Open Threat Exchange (AV-OTX), a system for sharing threat intelligence among OSSIM users and AlienVault customers. Free to contributors, AV-OTX cleanses, aggregates, validates and publishes threat data streaming in from the broadest range of security devices across a community of more than 18,000 OSSIM and AlienVault deployments. With AV-OTX, an attack on any member of the community alerts and arms the entire community with timely intelligence required to better manage a similar attack.
