Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI) produces evidence-based knowledge on cyber threats and their implications within their relevant context, including actionable advice. With the technical landmark of the APT-1 report in 2013, CTI took off and it has contributed to society (Bellingcat’s MH-17 investigation) and diplomacy (Joint EU Diplomatic Response to Malicious Cyber Activities).

Over the last decade the field of Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI) has emerged, which aims to preempt cyber threats by combining aspects from Computer Science and the Intelligence field. Something like Risk Management, but less dusty, practical, operational and able to deal with a highly dynamic environment.

As follow-up on my Cryptocast appearance, some security recommendations for Bitcoin hodlers that don’t break the bank (your own bank).

Cryptocasters! Het valt voor @Misssbitcoin en @hmblank @BNR niet altijd mee een podcast te maken vanuit huis, met gasten op afstand. Maar toch weer mooi als het lukt. Met @f00th0ld, die onderzoek deed @tudelft naar gehackte #exchanges.

Most cyber security practitioners are by now aware of the Mitre ATT&CK framework and the tremendous potential it holds for increasing the understanding and mitigation of adversary TTPs. Within the Computer Science realm however, the framework has caught less altitude than in the infosec blogosphere.
