For security professionals evaluating threat intelligence vendors, the Gartner Magic Quadrant offers an indispensable perspective. Gartner analysts’ thorough and nuanced analysis cuts through the noise, making it easier for teams to understand each platform’s approach, strengths, and considerations—and helping them determine whether a particular vendor fits their organization’s unique needs.
That’s why we’re honored to share that Gartner has named Recorded Future a Leader in the first-ever Magic Quadrant™ for Cyberthreat Intelligence Technologies. This new report evaluated 17 vendors in the space, providing a comprehensive look at the competitive landscape.
“In our view, being recognized as a Leader means something specific to us: we feel it reflects our ability to help our customers with the outcomes they depend on. These include stopping threats pre-attack, running intelligence autonomously at a scale no human team can match, and making every security control they own more effective," said Colin Mahony, CEO, Recorded Future. “We believe this recognition reflects both the trust our customers place in us and the strength of the outcomes we help them achieve.�
A research methodology that prioritizes customer voice
A Gartner Magic Quadrant is a culmination of research in a specific market, giving you a wide-angle view of the relative positions of the market’s competitors. By applying a graphical treatment and a uniform set of evaluation criteria, a Magic Quadrant helps you quickly ascertain how well technology providers are executing their stated visions and how well they are performing against Gartner’s market view.
For Recorded Future, this meant that Gartner analysts spoke directly with our customers about their real-world experiences—the challenges they face, how they use our Platform, and the outcomes they've realized. We feel their voices shaped our position in the Magic Quadrant, just as they’ve always shaped our product offerings and roadmap.
The new Gartner report offers a snapshot of what the analysts heard from customers. We haven’t stopped working since then and there’s much to talk about.
There’s more… the next phase of threat intelligence
In conversations throughout 2025, our customers gave us their thoughts about product complexity, pricing models, and the challenges of scaling intelligence across their teams. As a result of their input, we’ve fundamentally changed how they can access and make the most of Recorded Future threat intelligence.
Here are the highlights of our continued commitment to simplicity and innovation to provide better experiences for our customers in 2026:
1. Goodbye, modules. Hello, simplicity. Meet our four new solutions.
Our four new solution areas cover the four major attack surfaces—an organization’s systems, brand, supply chain, and payment methods:
- Cyber Operations—This foundational solution empowers security teams with the intelligence to monitor and prioritize threats and vulnerabilities, get in-depth malware insights, triage alerts and detect threats, and stand up an intelligence-driven defense.
- Digital Risk Protection—Also foundational, this solution allows teams to monitor malicious sites, code repositories, and the dark web to detect brand abuse, employee credential compromise, and other threats to digital trust.
- Third-Party Risk—This solution enables teams to continuously assess supplier security posture with real-time intelligence, accurate risk ratings, vendor action plans, and more.
- Payment Fraud—With this solution, teams can detect and prevent card-not-present fraud with intelligence that identifies compromised payment data before it's used.
The solutions are built on a unified intelligence foundation to provide consistency, accuracy, and alignment around shared security outcomes. And they integrate with other security solutions like CrowdStrike Falcon and Google SecOps, bringing the benefits of Recorded Future intelligence and rich context directly into common SIEM and EDR workflows.
2. New pricing packages for less friction, more intelligence
We’re offering the four solutions in new pricing packages designed to fit customer needs:
- Simplicity—Customers can purchase one package instead of juggling multiple modules
- End-to-end workflows—Packages cover full use cases, complete with the key capabilities to get the job done
- Wider access—Higher tiers offer unlimited seats, so everyone now can be intelligence-led.
In addition, integrations are included. Now your tools in the security stack—SIEM, SOAR, firewall, endpoint protection, ticketing system, and more—can leverage Recorded Future intelligence without integration fees or limitations.
3. Expansion into Latin America
The threat landscape knows no geographical borders, and neither do we. We’ve expanded Recorded Future’s operations into Latin America, giving security teams in the region better access to the expertise and support they need to mount a successful proactive defense.
4. Autonomous Threat Operations for autonomous defense
In February, we launched Autonomous Threat Operations to help customers move from isolated threat intelligence insights and manual workflows to automated and continuous defensive actions across the entire security ecosystem. Complete with AI-powered, 24/7 autonomous threat hunting and multi-source correlation in the Intelligence Graph®.
As we continue to build on our vision of moving from automated to autonomous operations, we’re developing Recorded Future AI and agentic experiences to help our customers reduce alert fatigue, save time on research, and run threat hunts faster so they can detect and defend at scale.
