Advanced Threat Intelligence (ATI) is a cloud-based data collection and threat intelligence distribution feature that provides actionable information about MVX-verified events on appliances. The threat intelligence tells you who is the threat actor behind an attack, what has been targeted or breached, and (if known) how to mitigate the threat. The Trellix Research Labs team continually uploads the latest threat intelligence to the Trellix Dynamic Threat Intelligence (DTI) cloud. When an MVX-verified event triggers an alert, the appliance queries the DTI server for threat intelligence and stores the additional information in its database. When you display an ATI alert, the alert details include the threat intelligence.
Appliances now need access to the Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud for ATI communication. The intel context service is hosted in multiple AWS regions and resolves to multiple IP addresses based on geographic location. To determine the IP addresses for your location, go to https://dnschecker.org. See the AWS IP address range documentation for information about adding the IP addresses to the allow list.
