Behind ThreatCluster
Built by people who've worked the SOC night-shift and run intelligence for critical national infrastructure.
ThreatCluster started in February 2025 as a side project called Project Argus, built on a laptop in Bath: a clustering experiment that grouped open-source reporting by incident and pulled out the entities that matter. The prototype ran 67 feeds; the platform now monitors 20,000+ sources with the same idea at its core.
The core intelligence stays free, because threat intelligence should be reachable by everyone defending a network — we charge for the things that scale, like the API at volume, multi-tenant MSSP tooling and branded reporting.

Advisory partnerships
ThreatCluster co-publishes joint threat advisories with Defused (cyber deception and early warning). Partnerships like this bring complementary data sources into the platform where open-source scraping alone doesn't reach.
