The vast volume, increasing complexity and fast development of variations of threats and adversaries’ techniques, tactics and procedures require an Intelligence driven Cyber Defense. The famous Japanese warrior SunTzu taught us 2500 years ago: “If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles”. Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI) is all about knowing what your adversaries do and using that information to improve decision-making.
Intelligence often starts as a separated function, but to make it actionable and ready for decision making it must be on multiple levels of abstraction, beyond granular IOC’s and get through into your security controls: Intelligence driven Cyber Defense.
In this session Herro Zoutendijk will take us through what CTI is, how it fits into your Information Security Program, what models and methods are used by CTI analysts, the evolution of CTI, best practices for starting a CTI initiative and all of that illustrated with some cases.
