Ready to replace your legacy threat intelligence provider? Request more information on our AI-powered URL classification and threat rating data. We’ll get back to you right away.
Brightcloud is a legacy URL classification database from Opentext (formerly part of Webroot). Cybersecurity technology providers integrate threat intelligence feeds from providers like Brightcloud to enable the creation and enforcement of security policies inside their solutions. Web filtering and URL blocking is typically based on the category of the website that a user is trying to reach such as “adult”, “social media”, or “malicious.” Therefore, it is imperative for cybersecurity providers to have the most up-to-date information on a website, regardless of its age, TLD or popularity.
alphaMountain stands out by offering the most up-to-date data for threat ratings and URL classification. Our AI-enabled data collection ensures that you receive the latest and most accurate threat assessments and categorization for any domain or IP address, providing timely protection without depending on legacy threat intelligence sources.
