Real-time threat intelligence platform covering open web, dark web, and technical sources
Recorded Future operates a threat intelligence platform indexing internet-wide data to surface adversary activity, infrastructure risk, and attack-surface changes. The company is actively adopting generative AI (ChatGPT, Google Gemini) and security tooling (SAST, DAST, IAST, PKI) while maintaining a heavy Kafka + Elasticsearch + Apache Spark backend for real-time data processing. Sales headcount dominates the hiring mix (63 of 108 open roles), reflecting enterprise deal complexity: pain-point data reveals multi-stakeholder negotiations, 7-figure contract cycles, and champion-loss risk — hallmarks of long-sales-cycle security platforms selling to 1,600+ organizations across 74 countries.
