USE CASE · THREAT INTELLIGENCE OPERATIONS

Threat intelligence only matters
if it's about you.

Generic feeds tell you what's happening in the world. Bricklayer tells you what it means for yours. 85%+ faster threat intelligence investigations. 100% auditable by design.

Scenario 04 · Intelligence briefing & ACME risk
TC
You
Bricklayer Assistant

I can generate an intelligence briefing using the currently available threat intelligence agents, web intelligence sources, reporting workflows, and organizational risk analysis capabilities.

Proposed investigation plan
  1. Search for recent blogs and articles on threat actors.
  2. Conduct a web search for intelligence reports and analyses on active threat actors.
  3. Assess applicability and risk exposure to ACME corporation.
  4. Compile findings into a comprehensive briefing document.

Compiling findings…
Findings so far
  • Recent reporting consistently frames active threat actors as leaning heavily on social engineering and phishing rather than relying solely on technical vulnerabilities, reflecting a durable shift toward human-centric attack paths across industries.
  • Coverage highlights UNC6692-linked tradecraft involving Microsoft Teams impersonation paired with custom malware delivery to establish access and sustain persistence in targeted environments.
  • Analysis references Scattered Spider and organized cybercrime ecosystems focused on credential theft, rapid post-exploitation activity, and monetization through extortion-oriented outcomes.
  • Synthesized sources catalog broader risk themes including ransomware and infostealers, DNS tunneling for covert command-and-control, and commodity frameworks such as Cobalt Strike and WellMess observed across both targeted intrusions and wide-reaching campaigns.
  • Applicability assessment for ACME corporation identifies elevated exposure to phishing and impersonation scenarios, residual risk from unpatched systems and legacy infrastructure, and insider-adjacent vectors that amplify impact if credentials or sensitive information are abused.
  • The briefing incorporates perspectives from NTT DATA, IBM X-Force, CrowdStrike, CISA, and Kroll, including sustained nation-state activity attributed to operators linked to China and Russia spanning diplomatic, economic, and critical-sector targeting.
  • Executive takeaway: strengthen organization-wide security awareness, tighten privileged access controls and identity monitoring, and mature incident response readiness to reduce likelihood and blast radius from contemporary adversary tradecraft.

THE PROBLEM

Why generic intelligence isn't intelligence.

Threat intelligence is everywhere.
Actionable intelligence is not.

Feeds are chaotic with alerts coming in from everywhere. Signals are disconnected. Context lives in different systems.

Analysts spend hours figuring out what matters to their environment.
By the time they do, it's often too late.

THE APPROACH

What Coordinated AI Agents Actually Look Like.

With Bricklayer, threat intelligence operations are handled by a coordinated workforce of AI agents under your team's command, working with the tools you already use. Your team, now with the experts they've always needed.

  • Deep expertise across your existing tools and disciplines.
  • Investigates in parallel across areas of responsibility.
  • Shares context across every step, nothing gets lost.
  • Decisions are made with full visibility.
  • Outcomes and learnings improve over time.
  • Every decision is governed, consistent, and auditable.
FROM CONVERSATION TO COMMAND

Five steps. One governed workflow.

Security investigations don't fail for lack of data. They fail for lack of coordination. Here's how Bricklayer turns a conversation into organized, executed, and governed action across your SOC.

STEP 01Conversation

Converse With Assistant.

Turn natural language into structured security workflows. Designed, adjusted, and ready to execute.

  • Conversation-driven design
  • Build an investigation plan
  • Review and refine the plan
  • Execute with one click
  • Save and reuse workflows
STEP 02Reporting

Investigation Reports.

Generate structured reports and audit-ready evidence packages for analyst review and compliance.

  • Generate structured reports
  • Collect and preserve evidence
  • Explain AI reasoning clearly
  • Produce audit-ready outputs
  • Document operational decisions
STEP 03Tasks

Task-Level Execution.

Decompose investigations into discrete tasks, each handled by a specialized agent with traceable outputs.

  • Decompose tasks automatically
  • Assign specialized agents
  • Deliver structured outputs
  • Trace every execution step
  • Reuse operational logic
STEP 04Orchestration

Visual Orchestration.

Visually orchestrate agents, procedures, and execution paths inside a governed workspace.

  • Map task dependencies visually
  • Orchestrate multi-step procedures
  • Converse with agents, question their decisions
  • Coordinate agents in real time
  • Visualize end-to-end operational flow
STEP 05Governance

Procedure Engineering and Governance.

Establish human oversight through governed prompts, structured controls, and reusable procedures.

  • Human-in-the-loop oversight
  • Define structured context and inputs
  • Build and reuse procedures at scale
  • Engineer and version prompts
  • Maintain operational control and governance
AT SCALE

What This Looks Like at Scale

85%+ faster threat intelligence investigations
Environment-specific intelligence, not generic feeds
Sooner identification of active threats and campaigns
100% auditable agent activity
Make decisions faster, with context.
IN PRODUCTION

Already running across enterprise & MSSP environments.

WHY BRICKLAYER

A workforce, not a workflow.

Most AI SOC platforms automate the work. Agents operate independently. Context resets between steps. And when something goes wrong, there's no clear record of why a decision was made.

Our AI agents go farther. They share context, work as a coordinated team, and provide full visibility for analysts. Bricklayer's agentic cybersecurity platform is a workforce for the AI SOC, operating under human control.
