Topic Abstract:
Threat Intelligence plays a crucial part in the digital world. It reduces the risk of critical security breaches and helps organizations align their security budgets with their requirements.
Threat Intelligence focuses primarily on prevention, allowing security leaders to fight potential malicious elements before they cause problems. People, processes, and technologies must be reviewed immediately to ensure security can counter sophisticated cyberattacks.
Cyber Threat Intelligence is critical for any organization’s security program. When used properly, it can enable well-informed security and business decisions, and ultimately allow organizations to take decisive action to protect their users, data, and reputation. Unfortunately, the term ‘threat intelligence’ is used inconsistently and can lead to confusion in the cybersecurity community.
Key takeaways:
- What is Cyber Threat Intelligence and why is it important?
- How to use/implement it in your organization.
- Key aspects to consider while implementing Threat Intelligence.
