Getting Started With the ThreatConnect Knowledge Base

Welcome to the new ThreatConnect^® knowledge base! This article highlights key features in the new knowledge base and provides helpful tips for finding and viewing knowledge base articles.

Article Categories

Knowledge base articles are now grouped into categories. You can view a complete list of categories in the Browse by Category section of the homepage or in the category sidebar on the left side of the screen (Figure 1).

• Click on a category title to expand it and view all subcategories and articles it contains.
• Use the Filter search bar to filter categories and articles by title.
• Click the  icon to collapse and expand the category sidebar.
• As you scroll through an article, the category sidebar will remain fixed on the left side of the screen.

Table of Contents

Depending on the size and structure of a knowledge base article, a table of contents may be displayed on the right side of the screen when viewing an article (Figure 2).

• Clicking on a section heading will cause the browser to scroll to that section automatically.
• As you scroll through an article, the table of contents will highlight the current section you're viewing, as in Figure 2.
• Like the category sidebar, the table of contents will remain fixed on the right side of the screen as you scroll through an article.

Searching for Articles

A search bar is available on the homepage and at the top of the screen when viewing an article. As you type a keyword or phrase into the search bar, a list of search results will update automatically (Figure 3). To view a complete list of articles matching the text entered in the search bar, click the View All Results link at the bottom of the search results list.

Article Statistics and Viewing Options

When viewing an article, the date when it was last updated and an estimated reading time will be displayed following the article's title (Figure 4). In addition, options to print the article and view it in dark or light mode will be displayed.
