About Sift

Introduction

The Sift feature in GreyNoise offers users a powerful way to analyze and understand payload data, providing valuable insights for threat intelligence analysts and detection engineers. By leveraging machine-generated context and analysis, Sift enables users to efficiently identify patterns, anomalies, and potential threats within vast amounts of payload data.

Why Sift?

GreyNoise users often deal with large volumes of payload data without a streamlined method to cluster and analyze it effectively. Traditional approaches rely on manual processing or basic list formats, leading to time-consuming and inefficient investigations.

  • Users can access AI insights on payloads, facilitating the identification of relevant attacks or anomalies.
  • Customers can seamlessly integrate Sift data into their preferred platforms via API or browse it through the GreyNoise UI.
  • Users receive a daily intelligence report based on the last 24 hours of HTTP payload data, generated using the GreyNoise Data Science Sift process. An API is provided to fetch the Sift daily report, allowing seamless integration into threat intelligence or automation platforms. Sift reports are also accessible via the GreyNoise UI, offering users a convenient way to explore and analyze the data. GreyNoise tagging rules applicable to the data are returned, providing users with insights into potential detections.
