The Bad Guys Love When You Go It Alone

Why Do Cyberattackers Succeed?

Hackers cooperate. They share information and develop collaborative tools and platforms, while organizations often try to go it alone (in the midst of an epic talent shortage).

They’re persistent, and blue teams often lack the automation needed to repel 100% of the attacks.

They’re smart and innovative. Their TTPs evolve, but few organizations have access to the sort of up-to-the-second global intel needed to effectively anticipate, detect, prevent and respond.

Here’s how we can help you flip the script.

What Is Threat Intelligence?

Threat intelligence is the collective body of knowledge organizations use to understand the cyber threats they face. This knowledge set includes:

All known evidence on threat actors worldwide (nation-states, criminals, hacktivists, etc.), including their motivations, goals and political-economic contexts
The tactics, techniques and procedures they use
Public and private analyses regarding these entities and the evolving landscape

Threat intelligence also incorporates the various organizations and agencies charged with tracking and reporting on evolving threats, their processes and information-sharing practices.

Digital Risk Protection Management – A Tailored Threat Intelligence Process

For way too many orgs, cyber defense is like hunkering down behind the barricades. You know they’re coming. You just don’t know when, where or how. Also, you don’t know who “they” are.

What you need is a crack team of cyber rangers operating out beyond the perimeter, threat hunting behind enemy lines, intercepting intel and curating information on the clear, deep and dark webs and understanding your digital footprint the way the black hats do.

You may not currently have the ability to do all this. Resources are tight. Talent is scarce (and eye-wateringly expensive). Security may not be a core competency. Or maybe it just makes better business sense to partner on some security functions. If you get breached, though, there’s a steep price to be paid in direct financial impact and potentially brand reputation.

An efficient, tailored threat intelligence process. Actionable information. Talent and resources. Optiv DRPM turns those barricades into high, fortified walls.
