With cyber attack frequency hitting new highs, the continued evolution of threat actor tactics, techniques and procedures (TTPs), and the rapid digitization of organizations across industries, it’s become common to say that it’s not a matter of if, but when you’ll experience a cyber incident.

Earlier this year, the SEC proposed a new set of rules on cybersecurity governance, which would require public companies to make appropriate disclosures of cyber risks and management procedures. Although the amendments target the financial sector, it is one more evidence of the fact that cybersecurity is no longer a backburner component of business operations. It is a critical factor that can determine the destiny of all kinds of organizations, large or small.

In today’s cyber landscape, rapid and effective incident response is crucial for organizations to mitigate the impact of cyber attacks. Advanced Threat Intelligence (ATI) is emerging as a key player in enhancing incident response strategies. This blog post aims to elucidate how modern threat intelligence tools refine and improve these strategies, equipping organizations with the necessary insights and agility to respond to cyber threats efficiently.

Now, having a Cyber Security Incident Response System (CSIRS) in place is critical. The internet is playing a bigger and bigger role in business. This means organizations become more and more vulnerable to cyber threats.
