Censys Launches New Internet Intelligence Offering to Accelerate Security Operations and Incident Response

New offering delivers real-time and historical Internet visibility with Censys-curated adversary intelligence to enhance SOC triage efficiency, threat correlation, and incident response speed.

ANN ARBOR, Mich., Oct. 28, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Censys, the authority for Internet Intelligence and insights, today announced a new offering designed to help Security Operations Center (SOC) teams accelerate alert triage, reduce mean time to triage (MTTT), and accelerate incident response. The offering delivers near real-time and historical visibility into all Internet-facing assets—enabling analysts to quickly enrich context, validate threat intelligence, and increase threat visibility with Censys-curated adversary data. This enables SOCs to streamline investigations by eliminating manual workflows and improving triage prioritization.

The Challenge: Alert Fatigue and Missing Context

SOC teams today face critical barriers to efficient triage and investigation:

• Context Gaps: Analysts often lack data on external IPs, services, and infrastructure when investigating alerts.
• Outdated Feeds: Many threat feeds rely on stale indicators of compromise (IOCs).
• Limited Historical Insight: Without historical snapshots of Internet data, analysts can't trace how attacker infrastructure evolves.
• Incomplete Infrastructure View: Teams struggle to see all related assets behind an attack.

The Censys Solution: Internet Intelligence for Security Operations

Powered by the industry's most comprehensive and continuously updated Internet intelligence, Censys enables SOC and IR teams to operationalize external visibility within their workflows:

• Comprehensive Internet Visibility: Through continuous Internet-wide scanning across all 65,535 ports and 200+ protocols, Censys delivers validated, structured data on hosts, services, and certificates including context on WHOIS, ASN, TLS metadata, and service labels for VPNs, proxies, IoT devices, remote access, routers, and more.
• Censys Threat Infrastructure Data: Augment stale threat feeds with Censys-validated adversary infrastructure including Command-and-Control (C2), loaders, remote access trojans (RATs), phishing kits, botnets, and other malicious infrastructure.
• Historical Insights: Access historical snapshots of every Internet-connected asset to trace attacker activity over time.
• Censys Investigation Manager:Discover, pivot, and visualize related adversarial infrastructure for complete threat campaign awareness.

Censys transforms security operations from reactive investigation to proactive, intelligence-driven defense. Seamless API integrations allow teams to automate enrichment, threat correlation, and policy enforcement, eliminating manual triage steps and accelerating detection, prioritization, and response.
