License

You need a separate, additional license to use Threat Intelligence.

If you have a valid, up-to-date license for Threat Intelligence (TI), it will show in Guardian here: Administration icon - which looks like a gear cog > System > Updates & License > Threat Intelligence.

Updates section

The Updates section will show different details depending on how the Guardian is connected.

Update service configuration dialog

The Update service configuration dialog shows different options, depending on how Guardian receives Threat Intelligence information.

If Guardian is connected to a Central Management Console (CMC) or Vantage, it receives Threat Intelligence through that connection (see above).

If Guardian is not connected upstream, it receives Threat Intelligence through an S3 instance cloud service, which requires an internet connection. If a proxy is required for that connection, it might require authentication.
