Cyware’s Role in the Evolving Threat Intelligence Landscape: Insights from IDC’s 2024 Report

Every security team has experienced that familiar, heart-pounding moment: an emerging threat surfaces, alerts spike, and multiple intelligence feeds begin streaming in at once. The information is there, gigabytes of it, but clarity is nowhere to be found.

What matters? What is noise? Which team needs to act right now?

In that critical window, data is not the solution. Often, it is the problem.

IDC’s Worldwide Threat Intelligence Market Shares, 2024 report captures this situation clearly. The report explains how threat intelligence has moved from a simple collection exercise to a function that shapes risk decisions, identity protection, and broader operational strategy. Platforms that help teams turn information into a usable course of action are becoming central to this shift.

Among the vendors that IDC highlights, Cyware stands out for its contribution to improving how intelligence is connected, shared, and applied in day to day security operations.

A Market Moving Toward Unified and Actionable Intelligence

IDC describes a threat intelligence market that has evolved significantly. Organizations no longer rely on TI only to track malicious infrastructure. They now use it to understand attacker behavior, assess identity exposure, and identify weaknesses in their supply chain. As the purpose of TI has expanded, the tools that support it have had to change as well.

Three patterns are especially clear in the report.

• Fragmentation still slows response: Many organizations use several disconnected tools for intelligence gathering and analysis. These tools often work independently, which makes it difficult to act quickly or build a reliable picture during an incident.

• Cloud based delivery is now the norm: According to IDC, more than 80 percent of new deployments are cloud delivered. This reflects the need for platforms that scale easily, update quickly, and integrate with existing systems without significant overhead.

• AI is reshaping analyst workflows: IDC highlights early signs of agentic AI. These capabilities help with triage, investigation support, and other multi step tasks that often consume analyst time. As threat activity becomes more complex, AI plays an increasing role in reducing manual effort.

Across these trends, the message is consistent. Organizations want intelligence that arrives in one place, in one format, and with the context needed to make decisions.

Cyware’s Market Position and IDC Recognition

IDC reports that Cyware now holds 2.0 percent of the global threat intelligence market. The company also experienced a 24.7 percent year over year growth rate, placing it among the faster growing vendors.

Beyond the numbers, IDC includes Cyware among the companies that shaped the market in 2024. This recognition is tied to Cyware’s focus on supporting state, local, tribal, and territorial government agencies, where resource constraints and fragmented tooling create significant operational challenges.

IDC highlights several specific developments behind Cyware’s presence in the report:

• In 2024, Cyware focused on SLTT governments by developing threat intelligence and automation tools tailored to public sector needs.

• The platform emphasized unified intelligence sharing, orchestration, and response to support fragmented and resource-limited environments.

• Cyware integrated with CISA AIS and ISACs, strengthening intelligence exchange for public sector programs.

• Cyware earned StateRAMP In Process and FedRAMP Ready status, creating the foundation for upcoming SLTT deployments.

• In May 2025, Cyware launched a unified threat intelligence and orchestration platform designed for SLTT government agencies.

Where Cyware Distinguishes Itself

One of IDC’s core themes is the need for platforms that help teams use intelligence, not simply view it. Lists of indicators have limited value if analysts must spend time stitching information together before taking action.

Cyware’s platform brings key intelligence functions into a single system. Ingestion, enrichment, sharing, workflow automation, and orchestration all sit within one environment. This reduces the number of manual steps that often delay investigation and response.

IDC’s observations align with several strengths of Cyware’s unified approach:

• Real time intelligence sharing across internal teams and external partners

• Automated workflows connected to SIEM, SOAR, EDR, IAM, and cloud tools

• Features that support sector level information sharing communities

• Deployment options that satisfy public sector compliance requirements

This integrated model gives teams a clearer, more consistent path from detection to decision.

Moving From Information to Outcomes

IDC’s title, From Indicators to Outcomes, reflects a broad industry challenge. Many organizations still receive large amounts of intelligence but struggle to apply it within their existing workflows. Analysts spend valuable time verifying indicators or collecting context manually.

Cyware focuses on closing this gap. Automated correlation, AI supported triage, and context aligned to SOC workflows help reduce unnecessary noise. The platform also supports shared intelligence pipelines that keep teams coordinated during active incidents.

These features reduce manual work and help teams spend more time addressing the events that matter most.

A Direction That Matches the Future of Threat Intelligence

The trends IDC highlights align closely with Cyware’s existing direction. Cloud native delivery, AI assisted investigation, and community driven intelligence sharing are already central to the company’s strategy.

As organizations continue to view threat intelligence as part of the core operational fabric of their security programs, unified platforms will become increasingly important. IDC’s assessment suggests that Cyware is positioned well for this shift.
