Cyber Threat Intel Skills
Cyber threat intelligence is more than collecting indicators or searching the dark web. Strong CTI programs are built on frameworks, analysis, logic, and the ability to turn information into actionable intelligence.
In this episode of Simply Cyber Firesides, host Gerald Auger, Ph.D. is joined by Wade Wells for a conversation focused on the real skills behind effective cyber threat intelligence work.
Wade has years of experience across security operations, threat hunting, detection engineering, and intelligence analysis in enterprise environments. His work focuses on helping organizations understand threats in context and make better security decisions through intelligence-driven operations.
Join us as we explore concepts from Wade’s upcoming Cyber Threat Intelligence 101 training, which focuses on building strong analytical foundations instead of relying solely on tools.
