Overview of this book

The sophistication of cyber threats, such as ransomware, advanced phishing campaigns, zero-day vulnerability attacks, and advanced persistent threats (APTs), is pushing organizations and individuals to change strategies for reliable system protection. Cyber Threat Intelligence converts threat information into evidence-based intelligence that uncovers adversaries' intents, motives, and capabilities for effective defense against all kinds of threats. This book thoroughly covers the concepts and practices required to develop and drive threat intelligence programs, detailing the tasks involved in each step of the CTI lifecycle. You'll be able to plan a threat intelligence program by understanding and collecting the requirements, setting up the team, and exploring the intelligence frameworks. You'll also learn how and from where to collect intelligence data for your program, considering your organization level. With the help of practical examples, this book will help you get to grips with threat data processing and analysis. And finally, you'll be well-versed with writing tactical, technical, and strategic intelligence reports and sharing them with the community. By the end of this book, you'll have acquired the knowledge and skills required to drive threat intelligence operations from planning to dissemination phases, protect your organization, and help in critical defense decisions.

Such is the purpose of threat modeling. Threat modeling is used to better understand yourself, understand the adversary, and map the two to create a better defense (remediation plan and resource protection). When an organization initiates threat modeling, two main components need to be highlighted: organization resources and adversary knowledge.

This chapter focuses on strategically modeling threats and analyzing the adversary's behavior. This chapter aims to equip you with the methodologies necessary for proactive cyber threat analysis and defense. We will look at adversary modeling as it is a critical concept in identifying the behaviors and characteristics...
