The new venture, named Soltra, will deliver software automation and services that "collect, distill and speed the transfer of threat intelligence from a myriad of sources to help safeguard against cyber attacks".
A joint statement by the DTCC and the FS-ISAC said Soltra would standardise and automate the distribution of cyber threat "intelligence", and increase "systemic resiliency to risks and threats".
"Soltra leverages FS-ISAC’s 14 years of information-sharing and analysis for critical infrastructure as well as DTCC’s expertise in high-scale, high-reliability, critical infrastructure for data processing," the statement said.
"Over 125 FS-ISAC members and representatives from other critical sectors, government entities and the private sector contributed to the requirements, architecture and design of Soltra’s automation software," it said.
The DTCC provides post-trade market infrastructure for the global financial services industry, and the FS-ISAC is a member-owned non-profit organisation that shares cyber threat information.
