The threat intelligence lifecycle

The threat intelligence lifecycle is the iterative process comprised of six distinctive phases for collecting, managing, and deploying threat intelligence.

Planning and direction

The threat intelligence lifecycle begins by assessing the possible threats and determining which processes it will focus on.

Collection

Once it has made a preliminary assessment, the threat intelligence team shifts its focus to identifying and gathering relevant data.

Processing and exploitation

Before moving on to analysis, threat intelligence teams converts the collected data into a unified, cohesive system.

Analysis

The threat intelligence team analyzes the data, resulting in useful information for making cybersecurity decisions within the organization.

Dissemination

The threat intelligence team presents its conclusions to the main stakeholders and makes recommendations to address the issues.

Feedback

After studying the team’s conclusions, the stakeholders provide their own thoughts. The back-and-forth continues until a satisfactory decision is reached.

Five types of threat intelligence
