Not Your Grandma's CTI OODA Loop - Community Defense Explained

Do you use cyber threat intelligence? Do you "share" intel with others? What if you could "see" everything your intelligence sharing community sees on their network in real-time as you receive the intelligence? Imagine the possibilities for what we could accomplish together, like birds of a feather...

In cooperation with ISACs & ISAOs across the country, we are laying the foundation for a new way to defend against cyber threats. Join Dave as he explains how we got where we are in CTI and the amazing opportunities when we respond in concert to threats including: The PPTs of the CTI Lifecycle, the Importance of Sharing Communities, the Technologies the Break the Chicken & Egg Problem, How You Can Participate.
