Resumen
In recent years, sharing threat information has been one of the most suggested solutions for combating the ever-increasing number of cyberattacks, which stem from the system-wide adoption of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) and consequently endangers the digital and physical assets of organizations. Several solutions, however, were proposed to facilitate data exchange between different systems, but none were able to address the main challenges of threat sharing such as trust, privacy, interoperability, and automation in a single solution. To address these issues, this paper presents a secure and efficient threat information sharing system that leverages Trusted Automated Exchange of Intelligence Information (TAXIITM) standard and private blockchain technology to automate the threat sharing procedure while offering privacy, data integrity, and interoperability. The extensive evaluation of the solution implementation indicates its capability to offer secure communication between participants without sacrificing data privacy and overall performance as opposed to existing solutions.
