Course Description

We often hear from organisations that they have subscribed to a threat intelligence feed as a compliance requirement, but they don’t really know what to do with it. Or they want to align with Mitre ATT&CK but they don’t know where to start to understand their current coverage gaps for TTPs.

By learning how to operationalise cyber threat intelligence (CTI) effectively, organisations can improve detection capabilities, accelerate incident response, prioritise defensive investments, and better align cybersecurity efforts with actual business risk. CTI helps organisations shift toward a more proactive and threat-informed approach by understanding which threats are most relevant, how adversaries operate, and where defensive gaps may exist.

The training session will cover:

The fundamentals of what threat intelligence is and how it can be used
Multiple examples of how CTI can be leveraged in multiple security domains
Common pitfalls when implementing and how to successfully implement intel
How to use it for vulnerability management, risk assessments, detection engineering, incident response and strategic investment justification
Why more organisations should be incorporating CTI into their processes

This session is the third in our four-module course. By this point, participants have learned skills of how to respond in an incident and how to perform quick threat models, this now teaches them what CTI is and how to leverage it in multiple scenarios, getting them ready for the final session.

Your Instructor

David Jennings (DJ, a.k.a. Moss) remains optimistic that he can make organisations great again (read: more secure), even though he’s seen his fair share of horror stories over his career. With risks being blindly accepted and added to ever-expanding registers, it wasn’t long before he was in the ambulance at the bottom of the cliff. Let his dulcet tones soothe you as you come for a ride and learn how to be useful instead of just making nee-naw sounds when the worst occurs.
