External Threat Intelligence & Threat Landscape Management (ETLM)

The cyber threat landscape continues to evolve with the rise of Ransomware-as-a-Service (RaaS), AI-powered phishing, zero-day exploits, and identity-based attacks. Organizations can no longer rely solely on reactive defense strategies; they must develop a deep understanding of external threats to stay one step ahead of cybercriminals.

 

📌 External Threat Intelligence & Threat Landscape Management (ETLM) enables organizations to analyze, predict, and mitigate external threats before they impact business operations, leveraging global threat intelligence and data-driven insights.

Without this solution, organizations face the following challenges:

Lack of Visibility into External Threats
Companies are unaware if their information or credentials have leaked on the dark web.
Sophisticated & Hard-to-Detect Cyberattacks
Without threat intelligence analysis, organizations only react after an attack occurs.
Data Breaches & Credential Misuse
Company data can be stolen, sold on the dark web, or used for spear-phishing & APT attacks.
Difficulty in Ensuring Regulatory Compliance
Standards like ISO 27001, GDPR, PCI DSS, and PDP laws require organizations to have proactive strategies for detecting and responding to threats.

How It Works
How ETLM Works to Identify and Mitigate Emerging External Cyber Threats Effectively:
Show Details
a. Threat Intelligence Collection & Correlation
  • The system collects threat data from various sources including dark web, threat feeds, and OSINT.
  • AI analysis is used to correlate attack patterns and identify relevant threats.
b. Threat Risk Assessment & Prioritization
  • Threats are evaluated based on risk level, business impact, and likelihood of exploitation.
  • The system provides mitigation recommendations based on detected threats.
c. Automated Alerts & Incident Response Integration
  • When a significant threat is detected, the system sends alerts to the security team or SOC.
  • Integration with SIEM & SOAR allows automation of responses to emerging threats.
d. Continuous Monitoring & Compliance Reporting
  • The system continuously monitors cyber threats to update threat models and risk predictions.
  • Threat reports are sent regularly to aid in security decision-making.
