As cyber threats grow more sophisticated and the gap between crypto and traditional finance narrows, security collaboration is increasingly critical across the industry. Against this backdrop, Crypto ISAC and Coinbase Global Inc. are expanding a security integration designed to accelerate the distribution of high-confidence threat intelligence across the crypto ecosystem. Crypto ISAC and Coinbase are expanding an automated threat-intelligence-sharing initiative that will continuously push vetted indicators and attack patterns from Coinbase to Crypto ISAC’s member network. The effort is designed to help exchanges, custodians, and other crypto service providers detect and respond to threats faster as attack campaigns grow more complex and interconnected.

Coinbase will automatically share select indicators of compromise and attack techniques derived from its internal monitoring. Crypto ISAC members can use that intelligence to flag, block, and investigate threats more quickly within their own systems. The shared intelligence excludes Coinbase customer data. Crypto ISAC said its threat-intelligence platform is FedRAMP-Ready, SOC 2 Type 2, ISO 27001-certified, and supports automated sharing formats, including STIX-TAXII and custom APIs.

As crypto exchanges, custodians, and payment rails become more connected, and more intertwined with traditional finance, attackers are exploiting shared systems and processes. Faster, machine-to-machine sharing of actionable indicators can reduce incident impact and strengthen operational resilience across the sector. Jeff Lunglhofer, Coinbase’s Chief Information Security Officer, said collective defense is increasingly necessary. “As the financial system becomes more interconnected, security has to be collective. By expanding automated threat intelligence sharing with exclusive feeds to Crypto ISAC, we’re helping defenders across crypto and traditional finance act faster on high-confidence indicators to protect customers and critical infrastructure,” Lunglhofer said.
