# VirusTotal

{% hint style="info" %}
VirusTotal 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 %}

The Dropzone AI platform supports [VirusTotal](https://www.virustotal.com/), a threat intelligence service that can analyze suspicious files, domains, IPs and URLs. Their privacy policy is available at <https://docs.virustotal.com/docs/privacy-policy>.
