Cyberwarfare is unfortunately no longer found only in science fiction stories; it is with us today. Distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks have been launched against many military and government computer systems around the world in recent years. The technological advancements in computers, software, networks and information systems, in general, have actually made technologically dependent countries more vulnerable to disruption. Physical security is now permanently tied to cyber security. Cyberweapons are a relatively new type of weaponry with various effects on the target. They are usually basic scripts that have the objective to defend or attack a target. It doesn’t have any limitations of use and can achieve most of the goals set. Most of them are freely available on the internet but some more sophisticated or newer ones are kept privately or are commercial. Securing infrastructure against cyber-attacks has become one of every nation’s highest priorities. To achieve this objective, networks, systems, and the operations teams that support them must be fully trained and aware of possible threats and strongly defend against a variety of threats.

Gain the Skills Set To Be A Cyber Threat Intelligence Specialist

Today’s secure environment will have vulnerabilities in it tomorrow, so an organization cannot allow itself to become complacent. With organizations increasingly relying on digitized information and sharing vast amounts of data across the globe, they have become easier targets for many different forms of attack. As a result, every company’s day-to-day operations, data and intellectual property are seriously at risk. In a corporate context, a cyber attack can not only damage your brand and reputation, it can also result in loss of competitive advantage, create legal/regulatory non-compliance and cause steep financial damage.

There is only so much an organization can do by defending itself against threats that have already occurred. If an organization only reacts to new threats as they come up, is likely acting too late. It is important to understand and prioritize cyber threat intelligence processes, and how they can be integrated into an organization’s security operations in a way that adds value.
