Threat Intelligence and Malware Analysis for Defenders
Threat Intelligence and Malware Analysis for Defenders Threat intelligence and malware analysis work best when they are connected. Intelligence helps you know who might attack and what tools they use, while malware analysis reveals how those tools behave in your environment. When defenders link these activities, they gain faster detection, better context for alerts, and clearer steps for response. Build a steady intake of intel from trusted sources, open reports, and internal notes. Maintain a living list of indicators of compromise, mapped to tactics you care about. Use a fast enrichment workflow: triage an alert, enrich with context, then act with a concrete plan. Pair static analysis with dynamic sandbox runs to understand both code and behavior. Using MITRE ATT&CK as a common language helps teams describe techniques, map detections, and plan mitigations. If a phishing email leads to credential theft, you can align alerts to specific techniques and set targeted responses. This reduces guesswork and speeds up containment. ...
