Technical Architecture & Overview

Recorded Future Triage, originally the Hatching Triage sandbox, detonates samples across desktop and mobile platforms and assigns a maliciousness score from 1 to 100. Analysts can interact with sessions in a browser, schedule behavior overrides, and query the public corpus of prior reports. A free public access tier exists, and the platform became part of Recorded Future after its 2022 acquisition, which itself is now a Mastercard subsidiary.

Targeted Technical Use Cases

Batch triage of attachments and URLs with consistent scoring, plus searches over a large public detonation corpus.
