5 terms

threat intelligence technical

"share select, high-confidence threat intelligence exclusively to the Crypto ISAC"

Threat intelligence is actionable information about cyber risks—who might attack, how they operate, and what systems or data are vulnerable—gathered from monitoring networks, software behavior, and public reports. For investors it matters because strong threat intelligence helps a company prevent disruptions, avoid costly breaches and fines, and protect reputation, much like a weather forecast and neighborhood watch help a community prepare for storms and deter crime.

fedramp ready regulatory

"Crypto ISAC's threat intelligence platform is FedRAMP Ready, SOC 2 Type 2"

A FedRAMP Ready designation means a cloud service has passed an initial, independent security review and been judged likely to meet U.S. federal cloud security standards, but has not yet achieved full authorization. For investors, it signals that the product is on a clear path to sell to federal agencies—like passing a pre-inspection—reducing regulatory risk and improving the chance of winning government contracts and steady, often high-value revenue.

soc 2 type 2 regulatory

"platform is FedRAMP Ready, SOC 2 Type 2, and ISO 27001 certified"

SOC 2 Type 2 is an independent audit that verifies a service provider’s operational controls for security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality and privacy over a sustained period. Think of it as a multi-week inspection that checks not just that security measures exist but that they actually work day to day; for investors, a clean SOC 2 Type 2 report lowers the risk of data breaches, downtime and regulatory problems and signals stronger operational reliability.

iso 27001 regulatory

"SOC 2 Type 2, and ISO 27001 certified."

ISO 27001 is an internationally recognized standard that sets out the best practices for managing and protecting sensitive information within an organization. It acts like a security blueprint, helping companies ensure data is kept safe from theft, loss, or damage. For investors, organizations with ISO 27001 certification demonstrate a strong commitment to information security, reducing the risk of data breaches that could impact business stability and reputation.

stix/taxii technical

"supports automation and integrations for indicator sharing via STIX/TAXII"

STIX and TAXII are complementary cybersecurity standards: STIX is a common, structured language for describing cyber threats (like a shared report format), and TAXII is the protocol that moves those reports securely between systems (like a reliable postal service for threat alerts). Investors care because widespread use of these standards helps companies detect and share information about attacks faster, lowering the chance of costly data breaches, regulatory penalties, and damage to reputation that can hurt stock value.

NEW YORK and SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Crypto ISAC and Coinbase (NASDAQ: COIN) today announced an expanded integration that enables Coinbase to continuously share select, high-confidence threat intelligence exclusively to the Crypto ISAC member community, including unique Coinbase-sourced indicators and patterns. The initiative is designed to strengthen collective defense against threat actors by accelerating the distribution of actionable intelligence against increasingly sophisticated threat activity, including state-sponsored campaigns.

As crypto and traditional finance converge across payments, custody, and customer workflows, adversaries increasingly target the shared people, processes, and infrastructure that sit across these connected systems.

Through this integration, Coinbase will provide the Crypto ISAC with vetted indicators and patterns that help member organizations identify, disrupt, and mitigate attacks faster, while supporting appropriate collaboration with law enforcement when investigations require it. This data does not include Coinbase customer data, but rather other valuable threat intelligence and indicators. By responsibly sharing high-confidence, actionable intelligence through a trusted third-party hub, Coinbase is helping strengthen blockchain infrastructure and the shared financial system and reduce the impact of sophisticated threat actors.

From ad hoc sharing to continuous, automated defense

Threat actors move quickly and scale globally. This Crypto ISAC integration emphasizes continuous, automated sharing so intelligence is timely, high-confidence, and operationally usable, enabling faster detection, stronger prevention, and more effective response across security operations and fraud teams.

Crypto ISAC serves as a neutral, trusted hub that safely distributes sensitive intelligence to a vetted member community, with controls designed to protect confidentiality and ensure responsible use. Crypto ISAC's threat intelligence platform is FedRAMP Ready, SOC 2 Type 2, and ISO 27001 certified.

Crypto ISAC's intelligence vetting model prioritizes quality over volume and is designed to help members operationalize indicators quickly and confidently. The Crypto ISAC platform supports automation and integrations for indicator sharing via STIX/TAXII and custom APIs, enabling security teams to integrate intelligence into existing SOC and fraud workflows.

Coinbase is a founding Crypto ISAC member and holds a seat on the Crypto ISAC Board of Directors. To learn more about Crypto ISAC membership and how to engage, visit www.cryptoisac.org.
