Hot take from @juanandres_gs We appreciate the discussion happening in the space around what “scalable intelligence” actually means. We’re building Synapse for that exact problem set: hubs.la/Q04mmQQ10
More data doesn’t solve intelligence problems. Context does. In this Signals & Stories clip, reign explains how Synapse surfaces connections across datasets, but it’s still the analyst who decides what matters. Signal vs noise never goes away. It just gets better tooling around it. 🎧 Episode 4 is live. hubs.la/Q04ms3m50
The jetlag subsided - we wanted to give a big thank you to the organizers, speakers, volunteers, and attendees at @x33fcon. We're grateful to have been a sponsor and to support such a strong cybersecurity community. Thanks for the conversations, insights, and connections throughout the event. hubs.la/Q04mhcpx0
🚀 Synapse MCP (beta) is here! The initial Synapse MCP release provides access to Storm tools and skills, Data Model introspection, and dedicated view tools through a standardized MCP interface. We've also made integrations easier by proxying /api/v1/mcp through Optic. Docs: synapse.docs.vertex.link/en/latest/syna… #MCP #CyberSecurity #Synapse #VertexProject
We're honored to be named a 2026 Intellyx Digital Innovator Award Winner! Thank you to @Intellyx and congratulations to the other innovators recognized this year. We're proud to continue helping organizations turn data into actionable intelligence with the Vertex Platform. hubs.la/Q04lDGz60
What's the difference between a hunch and a defensible intelligence assessment? In this episode of Signals & Stories, Vertex Project analysts share how they evaluate evidence, challenge assumptions, avoid analytical pitfalls, and decide when a lead is actually worth pursuing. 🎧 Listen now: Apple Podcasts: hubs.la/Q04lyX1N0 Spotify: hubs.la/Q04lyPM20 YouTube: hubs.la/Q04lyXvM0 Show Notes: hubs.la/Q04lynyF0
DPRK IT worker schemes show how fast the threat landscape is evolving. @TomHegel discusses how North Korean actors aren’t just persistent, they’re highly adaptive, refining tactics like fake job applicants and targeting developers at scale. hubs.la/Q04lpllT0
Thanks for supporting us as well! We had a wonderful time!
A big thank you to our Silver Sponsor, @vtxproject, for supporting our event and a community that centers analysis, curiosity, and real-world impact. Until next time!
Here are some photos from #x33fcon 2026. We hope you arrived home safely.
First ever panel on #x33fcon between @craigbalding , @MarcOverIP and @invisig0th .
UPDATE: our swag DID make it - shoutout to @x33fcon for assistance on their end to make it happen! We'll still run this promotion because coming up with Plan B was fun for us :)
Our @x33fcon swag didn't make it in time for the show :( So we have a contest running on our LinkedIn for the first 10 people who comment to choose an item from our swag store. Check it out here: linkedin.com/feed/update/ur…
The calm before the @x33fcon storm 💚
.@x33fcon kicks off tomorrow in Poland! 🎉🇵🇱 @invisig0th and Dylan Hennessy will be there and would love to connect! Also, be sure to catch visi on the Day 1 Panel on the past, present, and future of the industry. Find the full agenda here: hubs.la/Q04kHD3G0
Context turns data into intelligence. The latest @censysio blog highlights how Synapse integrates Censys Internet Intelligence to help analysts enrich investigations, correlate activity across cases, and track infrastructure over time from a single workflow. hubs.la/Q04kHFFG0
Guten morgen Munich! Ok, Munich airport lounge... Nailed the crossing ( managed to sleep the whole way ) and now i've got 4 hours until heading to Warsaw! I'm super excited for customer visits in Warsaw and then heading to Gdynia for @x33fcon 💚
🎙️ ICYMI I'm podcasting again! For @vtxproject’s 10th anniversary, we're rolling out a 10 episode limited series with episodes coming out bi-weekly. Catch up on conversations with @invisig0th, @whippit_, Vertex Analysts & @SentinelOne’s @TomHegel podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sig…
Intel is severely limited by perspective. It's misunderstood, even within CTI. I've had cyber directors and practitioners look at me sideways when I opened their eyes to collaboration with physical security, fraud, GRC, and risk. Intel is an input for decision support. Their idea of CTI is how it was shown to them. I recommend all CTI folks to read up on intelligence history and the broader use cases. Attacker ecosystems aren't stuck in cyber.
