dc.description.abstractThreat Intelligence Platforms (TIPs) are essential for sharing indicators of compromise (IoCs), but querying them can leak sensitive organizational data. We propose a privacy-preserving framework that combines Private Information Retrieval (PIR), Federated Learning (FL), and Differential Privacy (DP) to mitigate this risk. Our approach addresses both content-level and metadata-level privacy concerns while supporting collaborative learning across organizations. It ensures that sensitive query patterns remain hidden, local threat data never leaves organizational boundaries, and model updates are protected against inference attacks. The framework integrates with existing TIPs such as MISP and OpenCTI, requiring minimal operational changes. We implement a prototype using a simulated Abuse IP dataset and evaluate it on latency, accuracy, and communication overhead. The system supports private queries in under 300 ms and maintains over 95% model accuracy under DP noise. These results indicate that strong privacy can be achieved with minimal performance trade-offs, making the approach viable for real-world CTI environments.en_US
