(CTI) - Bringing External and Internal Intel Data Together

Effective cyber threat intelligence isn’t just about collecting random feeds or logging bits of data—it’s about having complete coverage. By gathering external intel (like commercial feeds, open-source reports, and real-time Indicators of Compromise) and pairing it with internal data (such as DNS logs, endpoint alerts, and application activity), organizations get a full picture of potential threats. In this blog post, we’ll focus on the coverage side of a mature CTI program—pinpointing the most important intel sources and data points you need for a strong defense and quick response.
