VolgaBlob’s Smart Monitor platform has expanded its partnership with Perspektivny Monitoring (part of InfoTeKS Group) to integrate Threat Intelligence (TI) feeds, significantly improving real-time threat detection capabilities for enterprise security teams. This integration, announced on April 30, 2025, enhances Smart Monitor 5.0’s SIEM/SOC functionality with contextual threat data from one of Russia’s leading cybersecurity providers1.
Technical Implementation Details
The integration delivers Indicators of Compromise (IoCs) through Perspektivny Monitoring’s AM Threat Intelligence Portal (AM TIP), automating threat data distribution to security teams. The TI feeds include malware signatures, phishing indicators, and APT-related artifacts aligned with MITRE ATT&CK frameworks2. Smart Monitor processes these feeds through its upgraded Search Anywhere™ technology, which now supports:
- Automated IoC enrichment for log analysis
- Real-time rule updates for detection engines
- Cross-referencing with internal security events
According to VolgaBlob’s technical documentation, the Threat Intelligence module supports both commercial and open-source feeds, with scheduled updates every 15 minutes for critical threats3.
Operational Impact for Security Teams
Early adopters report measurable improvements in detection capabilities. A case study with T1 Holding demonstrated a 550% reduction in false positives when combining Smart Monitor’s analytics with Perspektivny Monitoring’s TI feeds1. The system’s digital twin integration also helped reduce infrastructure maintenance costs by 30% through predictive threat modeling.
Kirill Kuznetsov of Perspektivny Monitoring stated:
“Our TI feeds adapt to any security tool class, providing maximum coverage for emerging threats against Russian enterprises.”
Implementation Considerations
Security teams should note these technical requirements for deployment:
Component | Requirement |
---|---|
Smart Monitor Version | 5.0 or later |
API Endpoint | HTTPS connection to AM TIP |
Data Format | STIX/TAXII 2.1 |
The integration is currently available for on-premises deployments, with cloud support planned for Q3 2025. Organizations using earlier Smart Monitor versions must upgrade to access these TI capabilities.
Conclusion
This partnership strengthens Russia’s cybersecurity ecosystem by combining VolgaBlob’s analytics platform with Perspektivny Monitoring’s threat intelligence. The technical integration provides security teams with actionable IoCs and reduces detection latency for sophisticated attacks. Future developments may include expanded feed customization and automated response workflows.
