Threat intelligence is the process of gathering, analyzing, and applying relevant information about potential or current cyber threats to an organization. It helps security teams to understand the capabilities, intentions, and activities of adversaries, and to take proactive or reactive measures to protect their assets.
However, threat intelligence is not easy to obtain or use. It requires collecting data from a wide range of sources, such as open web, dark web, technical sources, human sources, and internal sources. It also requires analyzing the data with advanced techniques, such as machine learning, natural language processing, and data visualization. And it requires delivering the intelligence in a timely and actionable manner to the right stakeholders, such as security analysts, incident responders, threat hunters, and executives.
