SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Semantic search across security research results to surface contextually relevant findings rather than simple keyword matches.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Semantic Search: context-aware retrieval that understands intent behind security research queries.
  • Filtering & Content Extraction: date/domain filters and content extraction for deeper analysis.
  • Use Case: run CVE research or threat intelligence briefs by querying the Exa API and exporting structured results.

Quick Start

Type a natural-language query such as "recent CVEs affecting NGINX" to retrieve high-quality results from trusted sources and pull full-text extracts when needed.

FAQPage Schema
What is semantic search for security research and how does it differ from keyword matching?

Semantic search for security research uses neural, keyword, and auto modes to retrieve contextually relevant findings rather than simple keyword matches. It understands query intent to surface high-quality results from trusted sources.

How do I run semantic search queries for recent CVEs or threat intelligence?

To run semantic search for threat intelligence, input a natural-language query like "recent CVEs affecting NGINX" to retrieve results. You can apply date and domain filters to scope findings and extract full-text contents for deeper analysis.

Do I need an Exa API key to perform threat intelligence search?

Yes, access to the Exa API is required to perform semantic search for security intelligence. Proper query construction and handling of results with optional contents and highlights are also required to execute searches effectively.

Can I filter security research results by specific domains and dates?

Yes, you can filter security research results by specific domains and dates. The semantic search supports date and domain filtering alongside content extraction to help you scope findings and pull full-text extracts when needed for deeper analysis.

What is the best way to extract full-text contents from threat intelligence findings?

The best way to extract full-text contents from threat intelligence findings is using the Exa API's content extraction feature. After retrieving structured results via semantic search, pull full-text extracts to support deeper analysis of CVEs or threat briefs.

What are the limitations of semantic search across security research results?

Limitations of semantic search across security research results include dependency on proper query construction and access to the Exa API. Additionally, handling results with optional contents and highlights requires careful processing to ensure accurate threat intelligence analysis.
