Today marks the launch of our new Intel Reports sections on urlscan Pro.

Intel Reports are in-house research reports created by our urlscan Threat Hunting team and will be used to shed light on techniques, campaigns, and other activity we have observed on the urlscan Pro platform. Rather than rehashing other public reporting, our goal will be to focus on things that fall between the cracks or have a more narrow focus. At the same time, we will use Intel Reports to demonstrate how threats can be identified and tracked using the urlscan Pro platform.

Our first Intel Report covers a cluster of activity targeting popular brands in the hospitality industry vertical.
