Book Description
By finelybook
Understand the process of setting up a successful cyber threat intelligence (CTI) practice within an established security team. This book shows you how threat information that has been collected,evaluated,and analyzed is a critical component in protecting your organization’s resources. Adopting an intelligence-led approach enables your organization to nimbly react to situations as they develop. Security controls and responses can then be applied as soon as they become available,enabling prevention rather than response.
There are a lot of competing approaches and ways of working,but this book cuts through the confusion. Author Aaron Roberts introduces the best practices and methods for using CTI successfully. This book will help not only senior security professionals,but also those looking to break into the industry. You will learn the theories and mindset needed to be successful in CTI.This book covers the cybersecurity wild west,the merits and limitations of structured intelligence data,and how using structured intelligence data can,and should,be the standard practice for any intelligence team. You will understand your organizations’ risks,based on the industry and the adversaries you are most likely to face,the importance of open-source intelligence (OSINT) to any CTI practice,and discover the gaps that exist with your existing commercial solutions and where to plug those gaps,and much more.
