U.S.T.A. (Unified Security Threat Alliance)

U.S.T.A. (Unified Security Threat Alliance) is a threat intelligence platform operating since 2012 serving banking, finance, e-commerce, aviation, insurance, energy, defense, and telecommunications sectors with five modules: Deep Sight for intelligence briefings, Security Intelligence for account takeover prevention and vulnerability detection, Brand Protection for anti-phishing and automated takedown services, Fraud Intelligence for stolen credit card detection with notifications under 60 seconds, and Attack Surface Management for external vulnerability identification. The platform monitors deep web, dark web, underground platforms, hacking forums, and threat actor channels including Jabber, Internet Relay Chat (IRC), Telegram, and Discord to deliver intelligence from adversarial sources rather than aggregated feeds.

The platform provides over 60 Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) for integration with Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) and Security Orchestration, Automation and Response (SOAR) platforms including Splunk and Cortex eXtended Security Orchestration, Automation and Response (XSOAR), enabling automated ingestion of Indicators of Compromise (IOCs) such as malware signatures, malicious Uniform Resource Locators (URLs), and phishing sites. Key capabilities include automated phishing and social media takedown, 24/7 leak database access, customized strategic intelligence reports by sector and country, Investigation Request module for malware analysis, and real-time fraud notifications under 60 seconds for stolen credit cards.

Developed by Prodaft, founded in 2012 by Can Yildizli (Chief Executive Officer) and Koryak Uzan (Vice President of Products & Services) and headquartered in Yverdon-les-Bains, Switzerland with offices in The Hague, Netherlands and Turkey, the company maintains approximately 52 employees while remaining bootstrapped. U.S.T.A. received Best Security Product of the Year in 2015 by Retail Banker and was featured in Red Herring's Top 100 companies in 2015, with a complete user interface revamp in 2025 featuring advanced filtering for threat analysis and investigation workflows.
