Why each option
Cisco Talos is Cisco's threat intelligence and research organization, best known for delivering real-time threat data that powers Cisco's security product portfolio.
Cisco Talos continuously monitors global traffic and telemetry across millions of endpoints, networks, and email systems to produce real-time threat intelligence that is fed directly into Cisco security products, enabling immediate detection of emerging threats.
API integration with third-party applications is a platform-level capability of products like Cisco SecureX or XDR, not a defining attribute of Talos itself.
Blocking threats in real time is a function of enforcement products such as Cisco Secure Firewall or Cisco Umbrella - Talos is a research and intelligence organization, not an enforcement engine.
Talos provides continuous, real-time threat intelligence with no 48-hour delay - delayed notification is the opposite of what Talos offers.
