Indicators of Compromise (IOC) Worthwhile in 2018?

Anybody have thoughts on using Fortinet's Indicators of Compromise (IOC) service in 2018?  

I'm renewing a (5.6.x) FortiAnalyzer subscription and am considering adding IOC.

 

Last year it seemed that people were seeing a lot of false positives (https://forum.fortinet.com/tm.aspx?m=151711) but I haven't seen any comments in the forums on it this year.

 

IOC Questions for 2018:

[ul]
  • Has it caught useful stuff?  Missed important stuff?
  • What level of false positives have you seen?  Has Fortinet been responsive to update their info when you report them?
  • Has it needed FortiClient to make it truly useful?
  • How has it been with BYOD, Guest lans, wifi, etc.?
  • I assume/hope you can turn it OFF for certain subnets/vlans/interfaces/etc.?  We have some locked down lans for testing newly designed hardware which can look pretty weird to security systems.  Wouldn't want them causing IOC spam.[/ul]

    Thanks in advance for your thoughts.
