VT_GPT (Unofficial VirusTotal)-threat intelligence analysis tool

Example

Analyzing a file hash to detect associated malware.

Scenario

When a suspicious file is identified in an organization’s network, the file’s hash can be analyzed using VT_GPT to get detailed insights from various antivirus vendors, detection rates, and comments on the file’s behavior. This helps security teams quickly determine the nature of the file and decide on isolation or removal procedures.

Example

Evaluating the reputation of a domain involved in data exfiltration.

Scenario

A security analyst receives an alert that a certain domain is receiving data from internal systems. Entering this domain into VT_GPT will yield a comprehensive report detailing its reputation, including historical malicious activities, and a list of related alerts or tags from the security community, guiding the response strategy.

Example

Identifying the likely source or campaign linked to a detected malware.

Scenario

In cases where malware is identified, VT_GPT can help trace back to potential sources or campaigns by comparing the IOCs with known malicious entities. This function is crucial in understanding adversary tactics and helps in bolstering defenses against specific threat actors.
