Cyber Threat Intelligence Analysis
Cyber Threat Intelligence Analysis (CTIA) is a method-driven course that uses a holistic ¿human centered¿ approach beginning with the understanding of traditional analytics, ethics, and intelligence lifecycle applied in cyberspace. The course covers concepts from planning and building a threat intelligence project and using kill chain methodologies for discovery of cyber threats to developing CTI requirements and producing a collection plan. CTIA involves practitioner exercises and labs, to include threat modeling and development of a CTI report for dissemination, briefing, and sharing relevant data and information with stakeholders. These concepts are essential to building an effective cyber threat intelligence program and, when used properly, can secure an organization from future threats like espionage, cybercrime, and other disruptive cyber activities to include disinformation campaigns.
