When building a threat Intelligence team you will face a range of challenges and problems. One of the most significant ones is about how to best take on the ever-growing amount of Threat Intel. It might sound like a luxurious problem to have: The more intel the better! But if you take a closer look at what the available Threat Intelligence supply looks like, or rather, the way it is packaged, the problem becomes apparent. Ideally, you would want to take this ever-growing field of Threat Intelligence supply and work to converge on a central data model – specifically, STIX (Structured Threat Information eXpression). STIX is an open standard language supported by the OASIS open standards body, designed to represent structured information about cyber threats This isn’t a solo effort, so first the intelligence team needs to align properly with the open standards bodies. I was thrilled to deliver our theories around STIX data modeling to the OASIS and FIRST communities at the Borderless
