An extensible Threat Intelligence processing framework brought to you by Palo Alto Networks.
MineMeld is a community supported tool to manipulate list of indicators and transform/aggregate them for consumption by third party enforcement infrastructure. MineMeld has many use-cases and can easily be extended to fulfill many more. Here are a few examples:
- Connect to the Spamhaus DROP feed and transform it for enforcement by Palo Alto Networks EDL (External Dynamic List) objects
- Mine Office 365 IP addresses provided by Microsoft and dynamically create an EDL list for usage in a Palo Alto Networks security policy to further restrict trafic
- Aggregate CERTs and ISACs Threat Intelligence feeds, removing duplicates, expiring entries and consolidating attack directions and confidence levels then make this list available for enforcement by third party tools
- Extract indicators from syslog messages and aggregate them with indicators coming from 3rd party sources
Check this page for a brief list of currently supported nodes/feeds.
