TL;DR: Threat researchers use Pastebin and similar sites to share sets of IoCs among themselves. We believe there is a more actionable and contextualized way to perform this task, enter VirusTotal Collections. Help us shape the future of IoC collections with the what’s next form.
Collective knowledge is key for the success of us all in the industry. For this reason, we paved the way to give a voice to our community by providing them the mechanisms to (annotate and share) comments on VT observables. Time evolves and now most investigations go beyond one observable, quickly adding up several indicators of compromise (IOCs) for one single incident . With many security researchers sharing their findings in blog posts and tweets, it’s getting hard to keep track of all these data inputs. Moreover, these investigations change over time bringing more difficulty into reporting the new findings.
To fill that gap, today, we are releasing VirusTotal Collections. A collection is a live report which contains a title, a group of IoCs (file hashes, URLs, domains and IP addresses) and an optional description. Collections are open to our VirusTotal Community (registered users) and they
