Talk: A Future for Cyber Threat Intelligence

The war in Ukraine has demonstrated the role that private sector cyber threat intelligence can play in defending critical national infrastructure. Equally, we have experienced how private sector enterprises in neighbouring countries can become embroiled in the wider cyber conflict.

This talk will review the past 18 months of cyber-attacks showing how cyber threat intelligence has helped to protect networks, where it has been lacking, and hint how the nascent profession will evolve in the near future.
