Explanation
The Threat Download Manager is a feature of Splunk Enterprise Security that downloads threat intelligence data from a web server. The Threat Download Manager is a modular input that runs on a schedule and fetches threat intelligence data from various sources, such as STIX/TAXII servers, RSS feeds, or custom URLs. The Threat Download Manager then passes the downloaded data to the Threat Intelligence Parser for further processing12.
