Threat Intelligence

Threat Intelligence is the “cyclical practice” of planning, collecting, processing, analyzing and disseminating information that poses a threat to applications and systems. Threat intelligence collects information in real-time to showcase the threat landscape for identifying threats to a computer, application or network. This information is gathered from a number of resources and compiled into a single database enabling visibility into vulnerabilities and exploits actively being used on the internet (in the wild) by threat actors. Threat intelligence is not to be confused with vulnerability management.
