The alphaMountain DiFFFerence
alphaMountain utilizes advanced machine learning and artificial intelligence to render threat verdicts and categories faster and more accurately than existing threat intelligence providers. We call these the “Three F’s” and they’re what make alphaMountain DiFFFerent.
Freshness
Real-time IP threat assessments based on first-party algorithms that constantly evolve
Factors
Visibility into contributing rationale that determine all domain and IP risk scores
Fidelity

VirusTotal quoted us $250,000 which was way too high, so we asked our sister company who they use and that’s when we found alphaMountain. Their data quality, performance and value are exactly what we were looking for.
