Open Source Threat Intelligence Gathering and Processing Framework

Checked October 2026.

## What is GOSINT?

The GOSINT framework is a project used for collecting, processing, and exporting high quality indicators of compromise (IOCs). GOSINT allows a security analyst to collect and standardize structured and unstructured threat intelligence. Applying threat intelligence to security operations enriches alert data with additional confidence, context, and co-occurrence. This means that you apply research from third parties to security event data to identify similar, or identical, indicators of malicious behavior. The framework is written in Go with a JavaScript frontend.

Installation:
Please find the installation procedure at http://gosint.readthedocs.io/en/latest/installation.html. There are three ways to get up and running: Bash install script, Docker, Manual installation.

Updates:

Configuration:
GOSINT needs some quick initial configuration to start making use of it.
