What is Cyber Intelligence?
Cyber intelligence involves the tactical and strategic analysis of not only cyber threats but also of the adversaries (threat actors) behind those threats. Therefore, cyber threat intelligence analysts are vital to any effective cybersecurity team. They focus on technical issues and use frameworks (i.e., NIST Cybersecurity Framework) and methodologies such as kill chain to analyze the why and who behind cyber threats.
