Sectora threat-intel
Sectora Threat Intelligence Ask your AI "is this CVE actually being exploited?" and get real data back — not a guess from 2024 training cutoff.
What it can do
- Lookup Cve: Get full threat intelligence enrichment for a CVE including EPSS score, CISA KEV status, public exploits, Nuclei templates, risk level, and risk factors. Input must be a valid CVE ID.
- Assess Tech Risk: Assess security risk for a list of technologies. Returns known CVEs affecting each technology with severity breakdown. Input: comma-separated technology names only.
- Search Cves: Search for CVEs by keyword, severity, or other filters. Query must be alphanumeric text.

Sectora Threat Intelligence
Ask your AI "is this CVE actually being exploited?" and get real data back — not a guess from 2024 training cutoff.
Sectora blends EPSS scores, CISA KEV status, public exploit availability, Nuclei templates, and CVSS into a single 0–100 weaponization score. Your LLM stops hallucinating severity and starts giving actionable answers grounded in live signals.
