OmegaBlack & Torq Announce Partnership

OmegaBlack and Torq Forge Strategic Partnership to Deliver Unmatched Threat Intelligence and Security Hyperautomation

Bethlehem, PA; OmegaBlack, a leader in managed threat risk intelligence and dark web monitoring, and Torq, the pioneer of security hyperautomation, today announced a strategic partnership that unites proactive threat intelligence with AI-powered automated response, delivering a new standard of speed, clarity, and resilience for enterprise security operations.

A Partnership Built for the Modern Threat Landscape

Today's adversaries move fast. Credential leaks surface on dark web forums within hours. Attack campaigns evolve before most security teams have even finished triage. Organizations need more than detection, they need a continuous, closed-loop system that finds threats, acts on what matters, and responds at machine speed.

Together, OmegaBlack and Torq deliver exactly that.

OmegaBlack's expert-led threat intelligence platform continuously monitors the dark web and underground channels, surfacing analyst-validated intelligence mapped to each customer's unique threat landscape. Torq's security hyperautomation platform then takes that intelligence and instantly activates automated response workflows enriching alerts, correlating events across the security stack, and resolving threats with minimal human intervention.

Key Benefits of the Partnership

Intelligence That Drives Action OmegaBlack's closed-loop intelligence cycle, collect, correlate, deliver, respond now connects directly into Torq's hyperautomation engine. Threat indicators discovered by OmegaBlack analysts can automatically trigger enrichment workflows, update threat feeds, and initiate remediation sequences in Torq, eliminating the lag between discovery and response.

Faster Threat Detection and Response By integrating OmegaBlack's dark web and credential leak monitoring with Torq's AI-driven SOC automation, joint customers can dramatically reduce mean time to detect (MTTD) and mean time to respond (MTTR) — closing the window of exposure before threats escalate.

Expert Intelligence Meets Autonomous Execution OmegaBlack's analyst-validated findings come with context, severity ratings, and recommended actions. Torq's platform operationalizes those recommendations automatically routing cases to the right analysts, updating security tools, and executing playbooks so security teams focus on strategic decisions rather than manual triage.

Expanded Visibility Across the Attack Surface Together, the two platforms provide coverage from the earliest indicators of compromise on underground channels all the way through enterprise-wide automated containment and remediation giving security teams a complete picture and a complete response.

Scalable Security Without Added Headcount The partnership empowers lean security teams to do more with less. OmegaBlack's managed intelligence services reduce the burden of raw data collection and analysis, while Torq's no-code/low-code automation platform enables teams of all skill levels to build and deploy sophisticated response workflows without needing large analyst benches or deep coding expertise.

What Leaders Are Saying

"Our mission has always been to provide security teams with intelligence that is actionable, not just informational. By partnering with Torq, we're ensuring that the critical findings our analysts uncover translate directly into automated, measurable outcomes for our customers. This is threat intelligence that closes the loop." Jonathan Kovacs, CEO, OmegaBlack

"Threat intelligence is only as valuable as the speed at which it drives response. OmegaBlack brings depth and precision to the intelligence layer that, combined with Torq's hyperautomation platform, gives joint customers the ability to act on threats before they become breaches." Edward Spater, Partner Manager, Torq

Partnership Use Cases: Torq × OmegaBlack Threat & Risk Intelligence

Use Case 1: Automated Threat Intelligence Operationalization

The Challenge: Security teams receive thousands of threat intelligence indicators daily but lack the capacity to operationalize them effectively. Manual processes for validating, enriching, and deploying intelligence create dangerous gaps between threat identification and remediation.

The Solution: Integrate OmegaBlack's curated threat and risk intelligence directly into Torq's hyperautomation platform to create self-healing security workflows.

How It Works:

• OmegaBlack delivers high-fidelity threat intelligence (IoCs, TTPs, risk assessments) via API
• Torq automatically ingests this intelligence and triggers contextual workflows:
• Cross-references indicators against SIEM logs, EDR telemetry, and network traffic
• Enriches findings with asset criticality data and business context
• Automatically blocks malicious IPs/domains at firewall and proxy layers
• Creates prioritized tickets for anomalies requiring human investigation
• Updates threat hunting playbooks based on emerging TTP patterns

Business Value:

• Reduces mean time to respond (MTTR) from hours to minutes
• Eliminates alert fatigue by automating low-level triage
• Ensures intelligence is actionable across the entire security stack
• Provides measurable ROI through automated remediation metrics

Use Case 2: Supply Chain & Third-Party Risk Monitoring

The Challenge: Organizations struggle to maintain visibility into their expanding attack surface, particularly risks introduced through vendors, partners, and supply chain dependencies. Traditional point-in-time assessments fail to catch emerging threats.

The Solution: Combine OmegaBlack's continuous risk intelligence monitoring with Torq's orchestration capabilities to create a dynamic third-party risk management program.

How It Works:

• OmegaBlack continuously monitors the risk posture of your vendors, suppliers, and partners
• When risk indicators emerge (data breaches, vulnerabilities, dark web mentions, credential exposure):
• Torq workflows automatically assess the potential impact based on vendor access levels

• Trigger immediate actions: revoke credentials, restrict network access, notify stakeholders
• Generate risk scorecards and escalate to procurement/legal teams
• Initiate automated security questionnaires or audit requests
• Update vendor risk registers in GRC platforms

Business Value:

• Transform static vendor assessments into continuous monitoring
• Prevent supply chain attacks before they impact your organization
• Demonstrate compliance with regulatory requirements (DORA, NIS2, TPRM mandates)
• Reduce manual effort in vendor security reviews by 70% or more

Use Case 3: Threat-Informed Vulnerability Prioritization

The Challenge: Vulnerability scanners generate overwhelming backlogs, and traditional CVSS scoring doesn't reflect real-world exploitation risk. Security teams waste resources patching low-risk issues while critical threats remain unaddressed.

The Solution: Use OmegaBlack's threat intelligence on active exploits and attacker behavior to guide Torq-orchestrated vulnerability management workflows.

How It Works:

• OmegaBlack provides real-time intelligence on:
• CVEs being actively exploited in the wild
• Threat actor targeting of specific industries/technologies
• Weaponized exploit availability and underground forum discussions
• Torq ingests this intelligence and automatically:
• Re-prioritizes vulnerability scan results based on actual threat context
• Creates dynamic patching schedules that focus on exploited vulnerabilities
• Deploys compensating controls (WAF rules, IPS signatures) for unpatched systems
• Tracks remediation SLAs and escalates overdue critical items
• Generates executive dashboards showing risk reduction over time

Business Value:

• Focus limited resources on vulnerabilities that matter most
• Reduce exploitable attack surface faster than traditional programs
• Provide clear metrics demonstrating effective risk reduction
• Enable risk-based conversations with business stakeholders
