Use Feedly’s AI Engine to get the full picture you need to quickly prioritize critical vulnerabilities and minimize exposure
Exploited and critical CVEs need to be prioritized as soon as possible to limit exposure.
But manually gathering the full picture needed to make smart prioritization decisions is tedious.
We are excited to announce the new Leo CVE Intelligence Card.
It’s a machine learning model that aggregates, analyzes, and synthesizes vulnerabilityinformation from across the web in real-time so that CTI teams can easily:
Get a 360-degree view of a CVE without having to open a multitude of tabs
Discover critical, exploited, and trending vulnerabilities early
Easily link vulnerabilities to threat actors, malware families, and TTPs
Predict the CVSS severity, CWE, and popularity of zero-days
Introducing the new Leo CVE Intelligence CardFeedly’s AI Engine aggregates, analyzes, and synthesizes millions of articles
Leo aggregates CVE information from NVD, 25+ vendor advisories, Github, and 10 trusted exploit sources to offer you in one place all the information you need to prioritize an emerging vulnerability.
Leo also predicts the CVSS severity and CWE when it is not yet available on NVD.
You can use the cut and paste action to capture the information you need to create a ticket for your team to review this vulnerability.
Get a 360-degree view of a CVE to easily prioritize critical vulnerabilities
Leo identifies links between the CVE, threat actors, and malware families by analyzing news articles, threat intelligence reports, and social media posts.
Quickly research adversary activity and awareness level
This graph also captures how many sources and social media accounts are mentioning the CVE and compares it to the number of mentions of other CVEs of the same vendor, allowing you to detect trending vulnerabilities early.
Leo organizes all the information he aggregated and analyzed into 3 buckets: vendor advisories, references (trusted and highly curated cybersecurity sources), and social media chatter.
Skim through advisories, trusted reference articles, and social media chatter in one place
As soon as Leo discovers a mention of a vulnerability on news sites, research blogs, vendor advisories, or social media posts, he will create a CVE intelligence card. You can access the CVE intelligence card of any CVE using the https://feedly.com/i/cve/$cve-id URL format.
The CVE intelligence card is one of the machine learning models included in Feedly for Threat Intelligence. Start a free 30-day trial to see how Feedly can help you speed up your threat intelligence.
If you’ve popped into Feedly today, you might notice something’s…different.
We’ve introduced a new naming convention: RSS feeds and all the other streams of content you follow in Feedly (Twitter, Reddit, Newsletters) are feeds and the place you use to organize and group your feeds is a Folder.
Add the TechCrunch feed to one of your Folders
This doesn’t change anything about how Feedly works, it just makes it a little easier to talk about how to organize everything you follow and read. Happy reading!

An at-a-glance overview of the evolving cybersecurity threat landscape
Keeping up with the most critical threats, vulnerabilities, and threat actors can be time consuming and overwhelming.
We have been working with some existing Feedly for Cybersecurity customers to create a trending dashboard that offers an at-a-glance overview of the evolving cybersecurity threat landscape.
Today, we are excited to launch a beta of the Cybersecurity Trending Dashboard to all the Feedly for Cybersecurity customers.
The first component of the Trending Dashboard is a list of the trending threats reported across 1,200 different cybersecurity sources (news sites, blogs, or Twitter accounts).
The Today section now includes a Trending in Cybersecurity dashboard
It allows you to get a quick overview of what are the critical threats that are being reported across all the cybersecurity sites the Feedly community is reading. You can think of this as a TechMeme for Cybersecurity.
The model producing this dashboard is focusing on the news published in the last 24 hours.
Behind the scenes, Leo, your AI research assistant, reads all the articles across all the cybersecurity sources and Twitter accounts. Leo dismisses articles that are not about cybersecurity threats, clusters the ones that are reporting the same threat, and ranks them using different “features”.
The initial model we are pushing to beta is a global model. This means that your personal priorities and mute filters are not affecting this model (yet!).
Trending Vulnerabilities
The second component of the Trending Dashboard is a list of the trending vulnerabilities that are being discovered or discussed across cybersecurity sources.
You can click on a specific vulnerability and drill down to a page that captures all the mentions and chatter around that vulnerability.
See the chatter about a specific vulnerability
Trending Threat Actors
The last component is a list of trending threat actor mentions. It allows you to get an overview of which threat actors are being covered in the news.
You can click on a specific threat actor and get a “Search across the Web” overview of the mentions.
See the chatter about a specific threat actor
Continuously learning and getting smarter
Every component has a “Less Like This” down arrow button that you can use to provide feedback to Leo. The feedback is going to be reviewed by the product team during the beta to understand how to improve the relevance, deduplication, and prioritization. Leo loves candid feedback.
Using the Less Like This down arrow button to offer Leo feedback
We look forward to listening to your feedback and continuously improving the Cybersecurity Trending Dashboard over the next 8 weeks.
We also want to thank the customers who suggested this feature and worked with us during the Alpha. You know who you are!
Can I personalize the Trending Cybersecurity Dashboard?
Not in the current version. Once we have the core model optimized, we will look at ways to allow you personalize the dashboard by industry, product, threat types.
What is the best way to offer feedback to the product team during the beta?
If you have feedback regarding specific articles or CVEs, please use the Less Like This down arrow button to submit your feedback. If you have ideas on how to improve the concept, please email leo@feedly.com
How can I get a demo of Feedly for Cybersecurity?
If you are part of a cybersecurity team and want to get a demo of how Feedly for Cybersecurity can help you streamline your open-source intelligence, you can request a demo and a free trial here.
Can I access the Cybersecurity Trending Dashboard in the Feedly mobile app?
Not yet. The beta is only available in the Feedly Web application. We will integrate this feature into the mobile experience once the beta is complete.
Can I remove the Trending Cybersecurity Dashboard from my Today page?
150,000 cybersecurity professionals use Feedly to keep up with the latest security news and research insights about critical threats (vulnerabilities, malware, data breaches, threat actor groups, etc.)
Cybersecurity is a game of foresight. It is a chessboard where hackers and defenders are looking to checkmate each other.
Learning more about the tactics, techniques, and procedures used by hackers can help you better prepare against them, saving you the cost and headaches that come with a breach or attack. The cost of ransomware attacks in the U.S. surpassed $7.5 billion in 2019.
But information gathering is tedious: hundreds of new articles and tweets need to be reviewed and triaged every day. Finding critical threats in that sea of information is time-consuming and overwhelming.
Today, we’re excited to launch Feedly for Cybersecurity: a collection of integrations and Leo models that help you cut through the noise, break barriers between team silos, and streamline your threat intelligence.
Feedly for Cybersecurity includes an API that allows cybersecurity teams to share the threat intelligence they collect in Feedly with other applications.
150,000 cybersecurity professionals use Feedly to collect intelligence about the evolving threat landscape.
Threat research and collection are one step of the overall threat intelligence, investigation, and response.
The Feedly Cybersecurity API allows security teams to easily integrate the insights they collect in Feedly into other systems and applications. Some teams use the API to extract data about threats and vulnerabilities and feed larger machine learning threat-prioritization models. Some teams use the API to create Jira tickets based on the content of the Feedly boards to make sure that critical vulnerabilities are reviews and patched in a timely manner.
Access to the Feedly API (up to 200,000 requests per month) is an add-on included in the Enterprise Edition of the Feedly for Cybersecurity package.
In this tutorial, we will show you how to use the Feedly API to access the content of your security feeds, your boards, and your Leo priorities.
Authentication
When you subscribe to Feedly for Cybersecurity Enterprise Edition, we will provide you with a special Feedly access token associated with your account. That token will allow you to access the content of your feeds, boards, and priorities and perform up to 200,000 requests per month.
Articles as JSON
The JSON representation of an article combines some of the open-source content included on the RSS or on the website, CVE/CVSS/Exploit information aggregated from vulnerability and exploit databases, as well as the results of the Leo cybersecurity models.
The title, content, and visual information give you access to the core of the content of the articles:
JSON representation of the core of the article
The commonTopics array represents Leo’s topic classification. The entities represent CVEs, products, or companies Leo has identified in the article. The CVE entity includes CVSS and exploits information extracted from vulnerability databases.
The estimatedCVSS represents the result of Leo’s CVSS scoring model. This is useful for zero-days and articles which do not mention a CVE explicitly. In those cases, Leo reads the content of the article and computes an approximative CVSS score based on the terminology used in the article or the tweet.
Leo enrichment of the article
Pro tip: When you have an article open in the Feedly web application, you can use the Shift+D keyboard shortcut to see and inspect the JSON of the article.
Use keyboard shortcut SHIFT+D to see the preview of the article JSON
Accessing the content of your feeds
Let’s imagine that you have a “Security News” feed which contains a list of known and trusted security sources you want to follow.
The Feedly API allows you to query Feedly and ask for the last 100 articles aggregated in that feed. The articles are normalized in a JSON format which includes the title, the content, the source information, as well as all some cybersecurity metadata (Leo topics classification, CVE metadata, CVSS metadata, exploit information.
You can use the Stream endpoint to get the last 100 articles published in a feed:
Overview of the stream endpoint
The most important parameter is the streamId. Each feed in your Feedly account has a unique stream id. When you select the feed in the left navigation bar, you see the streamId as part of the URL. The stream id is formatted as `enterprise/xxxx/category/xxxx` for team feeds and `user/xxxx/category/xxxx` for personal feeds.
Finding the streamId of a feed
The count parameter defines the number of articles the server will return. We recommend that you select a number between 20 and 100. If you need access to more than 100 articles, you can use the continuation parameter returned by the response to chain the requests and ask for the next 100 articles.
Finally, the importantOnly parameter allows you to get the list of articles in the stream that has been prioritized by Leo.
Troubleshooting tips:
Make sure that the requests you are making are authenticated using the token you have received from the Feedly team.
Make sure that the streamId is URL encoded when it is passed as a parameter to the Stream endpoint.
Accessing the content of your boards
Security teams use boards to bookmark critical articles everyone in the team should be aware of. They also often use boards to bookmark articles they want to share with other applications.
You can use the same Stream endpoint to access the last N articles manually bookmarked by your team to a board.
The only difference will be the streamId. Team Board streamIds are formatted as `enterprise/xxxx/tag/xxxx`. Personal Board streamIds are formatted as `user/xxxx/tag/xxxx`.
Finding the streamId of a board
If users have annotated the articles with some notes and highlights while saving the article to a board, those notes and highlights will be included in the article JSON structure.
JSON of notes and highlights
Example: Integrating Feedly with your ticketing system
Here is an example of how you can streamline the integration between the research and collection work of your threat intelligence team and the analysis and patching work of your operations team.
The research team creates a Feedly board called Critical Vulns where why bookmark articles related to critical vulnerabilities they want the operations team to be aware off and review.
Each time the research team finds a critical insight, they save that article in the Critical Vulns board, adding a note about why they think the vulnerability needs to be reviewed and patched.
Instead of asking the research team to manually create a ticket in your ticketing system (Jira, Service Now, etc.), you can write a small app which every 5 minutes connect to the Critical Vulns board, requests the last 20 articles bookmarked in that board, and for each new article, used the API of your ticketing system to create a new ticket. The app can enrich the ticket with the URL of the article saved in the board, the CVE information, and the notes and highlights from the researcher.
This is a powerful way to break the silos between your research team and your operations team and make sure that critical vulnerabilities are patched faster.
Pro tip: there is a simple solution to finding the new articles saved in a board. When your app processes a list of articles, it should save the first article in the list and the next time it uses the Stream Feedly app to get the latest articles bookmarked to a board, your app can use the newerThan parameter of the /v3/stream/content and pass that article id instead of a timestamp to get newer articles.
A lot more…
The Feedly web application and mobile applications are built on top of the Feedly API. This means that every piece of information available in the application and every action taken in the application is available in the API.
We are excited to see many security teams use the Feedly API to streamline their open-source threat intelligence process. Sign up today and discover what Feedly for Cybersecurity can do for you!

Find the exact content you’re looking for with super specific topics and publications
The internet is a cavernous place. Opinion and insight can emerge from anywhere. Whether you’re new to Feedly or not, you want good, trusted publishers to teach you more about a certain topic, market or industry.
Feedly already digests and presents updates from the sources you value. But to really stay ahead of the curve, it pays to search beyond the publishers you already follow – to the blogs, articles, reports, and debates that are turning heads, but almost buried among the noise online.
That’s why we’ve given Feedly the ability to look further with Power Search across the web. It drills down into the specific information you want to find beyond your existing feeds and sources.
In this way, you can learn something new, discover new sources for future reference and easily share reputable insights with your colleagues and social network. It intersects the exact content you’re looking for with super-specific topics and publications.
Here’s what Power Search across the Web does, and how to use it.
Introducing Power Search across the web
Search is a relevance game. It’s easy to lose time in the wormhole of search engines. Meanwhile, the low hit rate of typical news aggregators and alert features can leave you pulling hairs out.
Feedly gets around this with a carefully vetted database of more than 40 million trusted web sources. Collectively, they publish 110 million articles, journals, and videos. on a daily basis.
But that’s still a crazy amount of info and analysis. So we help you refine this down with buckets– categories of publications that make a search super granular.
You can think of each bucket as a list of trusted publications that focus on a specific industry, function or topic. They tell the search exactlywhat to filter. You get hyper-relevant content that can be saved to a Feedly board and shared with your team or out into the wider world. Six popular buckets are surfaced automatically yet other, more narrow buckets can be chosen – we’ll show you how to do this later in our guide.
Discover what trade publications are saying about a company. Track topics on strategy sources. Bring up the conversation around a product in business magazines. The knowledge is yours to shape and tinker with.
Run-through
Okay, let’s imagine you’re part of the Innovation Hub at Aéroports de Paris. You’re looking for ground-breaking stories and reports about the airline industry.
First, click on the search icon to open Power Search, select the new Across the web tab, and search for the airlines topic.
Go to Power Search across the Web and search for airlines
You get instant access to highly relevant articles from expert and trusted sources.
Search across the web for the topic airlines
You can also search for companies, people, products, or other keywords you are interested in.
Narrow to specific publications
The initial search is performed against a set of default buckets: strategy magazines, trade publications, business magazines, and tech blogs.
But you can narrow your search to a specific slice of the web. Click on +PUBLICATIONS and lookup energy for example. This is a powerful way to find articles about airlines across a broad set of energy publications.
Search for the topic airlines in energy publications
Refine your query with Leo topics and business events
You can refine your query by adding additional parameters (topics or business events) using the +AND operator.
For example, you can easily search for product launches related to the airline industry by combining the airlines smart topic and the product launch business event
Create more advanced queries with AND, OR, and Leo topics and events
Cut through the noise with Exclude
Okay, now let’s remove some results you 100% don’t want to find. For instance, any mention of COVID-19…
The Exclude feature allows you to filter out specific topics or keywords from the search results. Click on Exclude > +Topic and enter COVID-19.
Use the exclude feature to filter out the noise
Advanced mode
If you are a power user, you can use the Title Only knob to let Feedly know if you want to search only in the title of articles or the entire content.
The where on the web feature also includes a funnel button gives you more control over which publications should be included in the buckets. Pick leading publications if you are searching for a popular term and pick all publications if you are searching for a niche topic and you want your search to be as broad as possible.
Make your Feedly better
Once you’ve discovered a great new article, you can click on the source name and see the other articles that the source has published. This is a powerful way to find new sources for niche topics.
If the content is highly relevant, you can use the +FOLLOW button to add that new source to one of your Feedly feeds and receive the next articles published by that source.
Use power search results to discover new insightful sources to follow

Once you’re done, click ‘Save To Board’.
The Board should now have your PDF at the top.
The PDF link has been successfully added to your board
It’ll stay there for anyone in your team to view and comment on. Add as many PDFs as you want to populate the Board, so you can easily access all the reference points you need in one place.
If your board is configured with a team newsletter or a Slack or Microsoft Teams notification, the PDF link will be automatically included and shared with your teammates.
Your turn
Follow these steps to add slides, brochures, guides, market reports and more to your Boards. Now that you can save any insights you come across, you can be sure that crucial information never escapes you or your team when building a fuller picture of a topic.
Get more out of Feedly now with Team Newsletters when you upgrade to our Business plan. You’ll also get additional Boards, sources and sharing functionalities.
Team Newsletters are one of Feedly’s most popular features. You can turn Team Boards into newsletters that automatically send a summary of the content that has been recently added to that board.
One of our goals for 2020 is to make board newsletters more customizable. Some teams use notes and highlights as internal collaboration tools and would like the options to NOT include those annotations in the newsletters they sent to their executives, partners, or customers.
New Newsletter Annotation Settings
Now admins can configure their board newsletters to exclude their notes, their highlights, or the Leo summarization.
