If I talk about my today's topic then I am going to discuss about threat intelligence so I would like to go into depth of this topic!

If I talk about threat intelligence then this is phenomenon to gather,to analyze as well as to disseminate data related to significant safety threats to organization computer systems, networks as well as information.It include to identify,to assess or to prioritize threats as well as to develope new strategies for mitigating and for preventing them.

If I talk about threat intelligence then this is most significant for organizations for staying updated about emerging threats as well as fpr protection of their assets from cyber attacks.Now let's talk that how these are useful.

These are helpful for organizations in identification of vulnerability, anticipation of attacks as well as development of effective incident response planning.Threat intelligence is helpful for enabling organizations in making informed decisions related to security investments.

If I talk about types of threat intelligence then these are strategic, tactical as well as operational intelligence.First if I talk about strategic intelligence then it is used for providing high level insights in threat landscape.

Now secondly if I talk about tactical intelligence then these are focused at particular threats and vulnerabilities.Last but not least operational intelligence is used for providing real time data related to attacks and incidents which are going on.

Threat intelligence sources consists of open source intelligence, human intelligence as well as technical intelligence.If I talk about open source intelligence then they provide available data including social media as well as online forums.

If I talk about human intelligence sources then they consists of human sources including informants as well as undercover agents.Last but not least tech intelligence consists of technical sources like network traffic and system logs.

If I talk about threat intelligence tools then they consists of threat intelligence platforms, security information as well as event management systems.First if we discuss about threat intelligence platforms then they are providing centralized platform for collection,to analyze as well as to disseminate threat intelligence.

If I talk about security information event management systems then these are used for providing real time monitoring as well as analysing of information which is related to security.Last but not least there's incident response platform used for providing structured approach in responding to security related incidents.

If I talk about threat intelligence challenges then these are data overloading, data silos as well as lack of standardisation.Data overloading is defined as diverse amount of threat intelligence data which is available and this makes it more tough in analyzing and prioritizing.

Information silos is referred as lack of sharing and collaborating among different teams as well as organizations.Lack of standardization is another challenge which is defined as lack of standardising formats or protocols to share threat intelligence.

If I conclude my discussion then here I have discussed about threat intelligence that what is this,what are its types and strategies as well as what are challanges that are linked with it so at last i want to invite everyone to share your feedback at my post!
