Threat Intelligence

In threat intelligence, you try to analyze data and information, so you can find ways to mitigate a risk. While performing threat intelligence you should try to answer these questions:

  • Who’s attacking you?
  • What’s their motivation?
  • What are their capabilities?
  • What artefacts and indicators of compromise should you look out for?

There are 4 types of threat intelligence:
