Course Overview
The value of preparation for cyber threat intelligence is only visible on the day it is needed. Insider risk in this aspect of corporate security practice is uncomfortable to discuss and expensive to ignore. The programme takes participants through this area of corporate security practice end to end, from framing the problem to closing it out. Most organisations already have a policy on cyber threat intelligence; far fewer can show it working. Mature organisations treat this part of corporate security practice as a standing capability rather than a project that finishes. The course leaves participants able to diagnose weaknesses in this strand of corporate security practice before they become incidents. The programme works equally well for those formalising cyber threat intelligence for the first time and those improving an existing approach. The teaching approach is deliberately practical: participants build a security procedure for this aspect of corporate security practice as they go. The final module sets out how progress on this part of corporate security practice will be evidenced six months later.
