Cisco Talos functions as a cybersecurity threat intelligence team that supports Cisco customers and elevates awareness of evolving threats in the broader security community, collaborating with industry and government partners worldwide.

Its cloud-based security services enable these insights to be applied directly in Cisco offerings, providing automated protection against emerging threats. The organization is based in Fulton, Maryland. In recent activity, Talos released Snort detections and triage notes for the November Microsoft security updates, illustrating its ongoing role in threat intelligence and proactive defense. It maintains partnerships with other security entities and government and industry groups to advance threat intelligence and incident response.
