# GreyNoise

{% hint style="info" %}
GreyNoise is a Threat Intelligence (TI) integration. TI Data Source integrations are used during investigations to improve analysis and in interactive chat to help answer questions. They are optional, but enabling more tooling integrations enhances Dropzone analysis.
{% endhint %}

Dropzone interfaces with GreyNoise to check and report IP addresses that are involved in malicious activity such as spamming, hack attempts, and DDoS attacks.
