Threat Intelligence & Proactive Defense:

This ecosystem should include data platforms capable of running on SQL and NoSQL databases, and effectively handling both structured and unstructured data.

• Ensure a pre-processing data layer optimizes data ingestion and reduces processing costs for the central data engine.

Collaboration & Influence:
