Technical threat indicators are

specific, common, and repeatable forms of information that readily lend themselves to anonymization, standardization, and rapid forms of distribution. These indicators can be effectively anonymized to obscure the target of an attack.[1]

Overview[]

"Sharing this kind of information poses low risk of disclosure of personal information or sensitive company and customer information. Technical threat indicators account for the vast majority of threat information that is available. Significant gains can be achieved through automated sharing of technical indicators."[2]
