Case Study: Regions Financial Corporation achieves stronger threat intelligence and reduced risk with Recorded Future

10 Threat Intelligence Goals for Financial Institutions

Regions Financial Corporation faced a rapidly evolving, perimeter-less threat landscape driven by online and mobile banking, an overwhelming volume of open‑web, deep‑web, and dark‑web data, and limited analyst time to sort signal from noise. To build a strategic threat‑intelligence program and better prioritize risks to the company, industry, and internet, Regions adopted Recorded Future’s real‑time open‑web threat intelligence platform, which provides an enriched dataset from 700,000+ sources and multilingual collection capabilities.

Recorded Future was integrated into Regions’ intelligence workflow to tune alerts, apply OSINT to prioritize threats, and focus analyst effort on the highest‑priority risks. The vendor’s platform enabled faster, more targeted triage and improved decision making—helping Regions save time and money, reduce its attack surface exposure, and better align defenses with the top threat intelligence goals.
