What is Cyber Threat Intelligence?

Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI) is the process of collecting, analyzing, and disseminating information about potential or current threats and adversaries targeting an organization. It involves gathering data from various sources (e.g., open-source intelligence, dark web forums, malware analysis reports, vulnerability databases) to identify attack patterns, threat actors, and their motivations. CTI is commonly used to proactively improve an organization's security posture, enhance incident response capabilities, inform security decision-making, and mitigate risks by anticipating and preventing cyberattacks.
