Security threat intelligence is key to proactively disrupting our adversaries – looking out over the horizon to anticipate where attacks will come from rather than waiting until they appear at our walls.
Threat intelligence can often seem daunting, but it is critical that every organisation, no matter how big or small, is able to understand the dangers they face and adapt their security accordingly. Cybercriminals are proliferating and professionalising with increasing efficiency and ambition. With nation-state-funded cybercrime, constantly evolving ransomware gangs, and new vulnerabilities popping up daily, it’s vital we remain cognizant of where our focus is most required. At this event, we will explore how we can keep track of all these threats, recognise which are relevant to our business, and prioritise our defences accordingly.
