Threat intelligence is a crucial component of modern cybersecurity strategies, providing organizations with insights into potential and emerging threats. This involves the collection, analysis, and dissemination of information about cyber threats and threat actors, helping organizations to understand their adversaries’ tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs). By leveraging threat intelligence, companies can proactively identify vulnerabilities, anticipate attacks, and implement defensive measures to mitigate risks. It includes data from various sources such as threat feeds, dark web monitoring, and security incidents. Effective threat intelligence requires collaboration across industries and with law enforcement agencies, as well as the integration of this intelligence into the organization’s security operations center (SOC). The goal is to enhance situational awareness, improve response times, and ultimately fortify the organization’s defense mechanisms against sophisticated cyber threats.
