Qintel is a leading source and provider of threat intel products and services that are Targeted. Tactical. Relevant. Qintel understands that sharing and communicating sensitive information internally and with customers requires a Zero Trust secure collaboration suite. They selected Wickr to meet both these needs. Qintel has extended the workflow model by automating their tasks. Here is how they use WickrIO gateway to address their needs:
Qintel operates in a fast-paced environment that requires secure communications in near real time on multiple devices. Email won’t cut it right now since we use PGP — not many folks have PGP capabilities on their phone. Plus, depending on how much mail one actually gets, communications could still get buried. SMS could work, but some of the messages are lengthy and even with big screens no one wants to scroll and scroll. Not to mention the data could transit various networks in the clear and it doesn’t easily permit interactions with other systems or users.
Reviewing Wickr documentation we determined a Web Interface Integration would do the trick for us. The process was well documented, and we were able to prototype a solution that met our initial set of requirements. From here we moved to a production-based setup that handles a few things for us. It should be noted that all of the items below operate utilizing the Web Interface Integration, meaning we were able to share the core code between the varying projects to get the necessary information into the respective Wickr rooms.
Utilizing the Web Interface Integration aids us to be more efficient with secure communications and alerting for threat intelligence across our organization. With minimal effort we are able to integrate with existing systems and processes which makes adoption more easily attainable.
