How to Use OpenTrojan for Daily Intelligence
A starter routine for making OpenTrojan part of your daily security workflow: check daily intelligence, follow the entities you care about, use tools to verify, and ask the AI assistant for grounded answers.
Quick Answer
Start your day with the Daily Intelligence brief, follow the CVEs, actors and campaigns relevant to you, verify details with tools and entity pages, and ask the AI assistant for grounded, cited answers when you need depth.
Definition
A daily intelligence routine is a repeatable habit of checking and acting on fresh threat information — reading the daily brief, following relevant entities, verifying with tools, and using the AI assistant for grounded answers.
Answer first
A 10-minute daily loop: brief → follow → verify → ask → act.
1. Read the morning brief
Open Daily Intelligence to see new CVEs, KEV additions, campaigns and actor changes.
2. Follow what matters
Follow the entities relevant to your environment (a key vendor, an industry, a specific actor) so their updates surface in your feed.
3. Verify with tools
When a CVE or IOC appears, verify it with the CVE Lookup, Hash Checker or IOC Lookup — evidence before action.
4. Ask for depth
Use Ask AI for grounded questions (“What changed in ransomware?”, “What techniques does this actor use?”) — each answer carries sources and confidence.
5. Act on your scope
Patch KEV-listed CVEs, investigate confirmed activity and record the loop in an investigation when follow-up is needed.
Turn it into a routine
Consistency beats intensity. A short daily review that you actually do outperforms a long weekly one that keeps getting postponed.
