Topic: Current Trends in Cyber Threat Intelligence Tools and Techniques
Abstract: As cyber threats accelerate, security professionals need to remain abreast of the ever-evolving threat landscape. An effective defense against these threats often hinges on a reliable threat intelligence strategy. Whether dealing with threat intelligence or identifying and managing high-priority alerts, security analysts frequently detect and pinpoint compromise indicators. This task often requires using various tools and technologies geared toward threat hunting and intelligence sharing while simultaneously integrating this process into the existing security infrastructure.
Threat intelligence involves collecting and aggregating data from diverse sources, monitoring continuously, and applying advanced analytical capabilities to yield actionable insights. Given the labor-intensive and persistent nature of this process, a comprehensive security strategy that is agile enough to integrate new tools and automation processes seamlessly is required. In the current webinar, we aim to explore the impact of such a rapidly shifting threat landscape on threat intelligence capabilities and highlight the prevailing trends in tools and technologies that currently dominate security efforts globally.
Key takeaways:
- the current state of the threat landscape
- outlining current threat intelligence capabilities
- advancements in threat intelligence accumulation and sharing
- new technologies influencing threat intelligence
- advancement in threat intelligence tools
