IQRisk Rep Query can be used in conjunction with other IQRisk products for a comprehensive threat intelligence solution.

Emerging Threats continues to gain momentum in the marketplace by licensing its ETPro™ Ruleset and IQRisk™ Suite of threat and malware intelligence solutions. In 2012, Emerging Threats secured major customers while exponentially increasing revenue over the previous year.
