The Threat Intelligence Handbook: A Practical Guide for Security Teams to Unlocking the Power of Intelligence

It’s easy to find descriptions of what threat intelligence is. But it’s harder to learn how to use it to truly make your organization safe from cybercriminals. How can threat intelligence strengthen all the teams in a cybersecurity organization? This book answers this question. It reviews the kinds of threat intelligence that are useful to security teams and how each team can use that intelligence to solve problems and address challenges. It discusses how security analysts in the real world use threat intelligence to decide what alerts to investigate (or ignore), what incidents to escalate, and what vulnerabilities to patch. It examines how information collected outside of the enterprise can help model risks more accurately and prevent fraud. We invite you to learn about how threat intelligence can help everyone in cybersecurity anticipate problems, respond faster to attacks, and make better decisions on how to reduce risk.
