Threat Intelligence Analyst
Generic threat feeds tell you what's happening everywhere; they rarely tell you who's actually targeting your industry, your stack, or your company by name. This service builds adversary tracking and campaign mapping tailored to your actual threat landscape, using the MITRE ATT&CK framework to translate raw intelligence into the specific tactics, techniques, and procedures your defenses need to cover. It's for security teams that want to move from reactive alert-chasing to understanding which adversary groups target organizations like theirs and how. The output feeds directly into detection engineering and executive risk reporting, not a subscription to a feed nobody reads.
This is a capability we deliver for you as a service, not a role we’re hiring for.
How We’d Approach This
A clear, staged plan, not a black box
These are the service-specific steps inside our six-step process.
- 1
Diagnose your industry, stack, and public footprint to identify which adversary groups and campaigns are actually relevant.
- 2
Pilot a tracking process against one or two priority threat actors to validate the intelligence sources and cadence.
- 3
Review findings with the security team to map relevant tactics and techniques to your existing detection coverage.
- 4
Operate ongoing adversary tracking with regular briefings and ATT&CK-mapped intelligence feeding into detection priorities.
