As reported by SiliconANGLE, cyber threats will never go away, especially as cybercriminals are becoming increasingly clever with their attacks. One of the biggest changes in the threat landscape is attacks are becoming more premeditated and targeted, focusing on reconnaissance and weaponization techniques.
“Imagine the sort of MITRE attack knowledge base — that matrix that everybody’s familiar with is like the game board for the adversary,” said Jon Baker, director of the Center for Threat-Informed Defense at MITRE. “We want to take safe spaces off the game board. We want to make it harder for adversaries to achieve their goals. We want to, as we go, create risk for the adversary. Ultimately, it’s about trying to bring balance to that equation between defense and being informed.”
Baker and Derek Manky, chief security strategist and global vice president of threat intelligence at Fortinet, spoke with theCUBE industry analyst John Furrier during an exclusive broadcast on theCUBE, SiliconANGLE Media’s livestreaming studio.
