What is Threat Intelligence?

Threat Intelligence involves the collection and analysis of information about potential cyber threats to help organisations understand, detect, and respond to security risks. It provides actionable insights that enhance an organizations ability to protect against evolving cyber threats.

Why is Threat Intelligence important for cybersecurity?

Threat Intelligence is crucial because it enables organisations to proactively identify and mitigate threats before they cause harm. It helps improve decision-making, reduce risk, and enhance overall security posture.

How does Threat Intelligence work?

Threat Intelligence works by gathering data from various sources, analyzing it to identify patterns and potential threats, and then providing insights that can be used to strengthen security measures. This information is used to detect, prevent, and respond to cyber threats in real time.

What are the types of Threat Intelligence?

There are several types of Threat Intelligence, including strategic, tactical, operational, and technical. Each type provides different levels of insight, from high-level overviews to detailed, actionable data about specific threats.

Can Threat Intelligence help prevent data breaches?

Yes, Threat Intelligence can help prevent data breaches by identifying potential threats and vulnerabilities before they are exploited. By staying informed about emerging threats, organisations can implement measures to protect sensitive data more effectively.

Comprehensive Threat Intelligence Solutions with Microminder

How Microminder’s cyber threat intelligence solutions work?

Microminder uses a data-centric approach to recover threat intelligence.

While we use advanced machine learning and automated systems to predict and identify real threats and vulnerabilities, Microminder also uses human analysis for data conversion.

Microminder combines its threat intelligence tools with intelligence feed from SIEM systems and data logs to procure crowdsourced and evidence-based data on the proof of an asset’s compromise. Then we perform several penetration tests to eliminate false positives. After this, we conduct malware analysis and data analytics to determine the type of threat or its sophistication. Once the threats are identified, we organise them based on severity and develop mitigation strategies.

Ideally, Microminder’s threat intelligence process goes like this:
