In the past year, the cyber threat landscape has continued to evolve. Availability has become a critical focus within the CIA triad, with ransomware and service outages high on the agenda. Network defenders and CTI analysts are acutely aware of the impact of large-scale network disruptions. Additionally, AI remains a double-edged sword with both adversarial and beneficial applications advancing rapidly.
The SANS 2025 CTI report by Rebekah Brown (SANS Certified Instructor Candidate) and Andreas Sfakianakis (Certified Instructor) explores some of the challenges CTI professionals face and how to better prepare for unpredictable events with severe consequences.
The report discusses:
- How methodologies and enhanced analysis tools are shaping CTI practices
- How automation and engineering are supporting cyber threat intelligence operations
- The dual role of AI in cybersecurity, from threats to defensive measures
- How CTI teams assess their maturity and plan their CTI programs
