What is TTPs?

TTPs stands for Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures. In cybersecurity, TTPs describe the behavior of threat actors. Tactics are high-level strategic goals (e.g., Initial Access, Execution). Techniques are specific methods used to achieve a tactic (e.g., spearphishing attachment for initial access, PowerShell for execution). Procedures are the specific implementations of techniques (e.g., using a specific PowerShell command to download and execute malware). Understanding TTPs helps security teams anticipate and defend against attacks by identifying patterns in attacker behavior.
