The current state of Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI) faces challenges in managing data collection, storage, and processing. While there is often too much information in areas like software vulnerabilities, other critical aspects, such as identifying attacker tactics and techniques, are lacking. This imbalance makes it hard to extract useful and actionable insights. Additionally, key frameworks like MITRE ATT&CK and CVSS don’t work well together, creating further obstacles. A solution that collects and stores data in compatible formats and processes it dynamically to address these gaps can help threat analysts, hunters, and SOC teams get clearer and more useful intelligence.
EDUCATIONAL RECOMMENDATIONS
