Session
Threat Intelligence is one of the most important inputs when investigating breaches, and enables faster, better informed security decisions. However, implementing a successful threat intelligence strategy heavily depends on the feed quality and how data is cross-referenced with other intel sources. This talk highlights the challenges of building good threat intel in a cloud-based world and offers a way forward for better threat intel through collaboration. In the discussion we will present a model for evaluating cloud threat intelligence feeds, map the units of threat intelligence that are uniquely relevant to the cloud, discuss channels for sharing intel, and strategize regarding how to encourage transparency from cloud providers.
We believe this session can kick off a wider conversation to improve cloud threat intelligence.
