What Is Cyber Intelligence?
Intelligence enables organisations to be more proactive in their cyber defence. It reduces risk and reduces operational effort. Solutions are more focused, more proportionate and more cost effective when the following 3 layers of cyber intellegence are actively pursued:
Strategic intelligence – seeks to understand what the adversary is after which means you have to know what's of value not only to you in your organisation but to hackers.
Operational intelligence – seeks to understand the way an adversary may plan their campaign if they have chosen to target your organisation.
Tactical intelligence – seeks to understand at a technical level where the adversary will apply tactics, techniques and procedures to exploit a vulnerability within the network.
Why do we think intelligence is important? Developing a cyber intelligence capability is not just for big organisations, it is an often-overlooked and relatively inexpensive tool that is invaluable to shaping an efficient, mature IT security programme.
