However, a leading issue is ensuring protection against the latest, emerging attack styles and breach strategies. After all, how can an organization ensure the security of its most critical information and assets if they don\u2019t know what types of intrusions they should be specifically guarding against?<\/p>\n<p>This is where threat intelligence comes into play, helping to identify and spread awareness of the latest information security threats and the best ways in which to protect against these attack approaches.<\/p>\n<p>Gartner defines threat intelligence as \u201c<u><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gartner.com\/doc\/2487216\/definition-threat-intelligence\">evidence-based knowledge<\/a><\/u> \u2026 about an existing or emerging menace or hazard to assets that can be used to inform decisions regarding the subject\u2019s response to that menace or hazard.\u201d One of the best ways to support this knowledge and devise the most successful responses to emerging threats is by studying these elements within their native environment. This includes, namely, the Dark Web, where hackers create, buy, sell and trade in malware.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Gathering malware samples to support knowledge of threats<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The basis for threat intelligence begins with the collection of unique malware samples and identifiers, including those all related to a single malware family. These samples are then used to establish robust intelligence databases, which can be leveraged to pinpoint activities and processes associated with specific attacks, as well as to inform the best protection strategies.<\/p>\n<p>As TechTarget contributor Frank Siemons pointed out, around <u><a href=\"https:\/\/searchcloudsecurity.techtarget.com\/tip\/How-online-malware-collection-aids-threat-intelligence\">360,000 new malware samples<\/a><\/u> are discovered each and every day. In this way, hackers are continually updating and improving their attack approaches and intrusion styles, building upon successful past breaches, and learning from unsuccessful attempts.<\/p>\n<p>This makes threat intelligence more important than ever before \u2013 a robust database can pinpoint known samples and help draw parallels between identified attack styles and emerging threats. What\u2019s more, the pace at which new threats are created means that participation in threat intelligence is an important pursuit across the board. The more businesses and individual users know about current threats, the better prepared they can be to guard against them.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Dark Web: An opportunity for threat intelligence<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As needs increase for more in-depth and up-to-date threat intelligence, the Dark Web provides an ideal study environment for researchers building threat databases. SC Magazine contributor and Security Stronghold CEO Charles Stockwell explained that because this is where cybercriminals come to buy, sell and trade goods and services \u2013 including malware, and much more \u2013 there is much that security researchers can learn.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBy exploring the Dark Web, security teams have the potential to <u><a href=\"https:\/\/www.scmagazine.com\/home\/blogs\/executive-insight\/threat-intelligence-from-the-dark-web\/\">collect actionable intelligence<\/a><\/u>,\u201d Stockwell wrote. \u201cThis includes malware capabilities, new tactics, compromised technology, and the direction of future attacks.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Stockwell and his Security Stronghold research team set out to do just that and delved into the Dark Web over the course of four months to get a better sense of ransomware capabilities. The organization surely isn\u2019t the only firm to undertake such a pursuit \u2013 Trend Micro researchers regularly examine current threat processes within the Dark Web and beyond. Some of our most interesting <u><a href=\"https:\/\/documents.trendmicro.com\/assets\/wp\/wp_below_the_surface.pdf\">Dark Web findings can be found in this report<\/a><\/u>.<\/p>\n<p>Stockwell and his researchers worked to investigate ransomware marketplaces within the Dark Web, communication with ransomware developers and sellers within marketplace forums, and gathering insights and intelligence from these communications.<\/p>\n<p>As Security Stronghold researchers discovered, however, not all of their efforts would be fruitful, and he advises that organizations with the resources and support to conduct these types of initiatives should focus on the \u201cbig wins.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn the beginning, much of what The Security Stronghold team spent their time on did not result in actionable intelligence,\u201d Stockwell admitted. \u201cSoon, however, we realized that we should focus on the big wins. These \u2018wins\u2019 are discoveries that will result in actionable intelligence for your organization. This intelligence will be different for every organization.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-542060\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.trendmicro.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/September-18-Trend-Micro-Know-about-threats-1024x538.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"538\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.trendmicro.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/September-18-Trend-Micro-Know-about-threats-1024x538.png 1024w, https:\/\/blog.trendmicro.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/September-18-Trend-Micro-Know-about-threats-300x158.png 300w, https:\/\/blog.trendmicro.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/September-18-Trend-Micro-Know-about-threats-768x403.png 768w, https:\/\/blog.trendmicro.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/September-18-Trend-Micro-Know-about-threats-640x336.png 640w, https:\/\/blog.trendmicro.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/September-18-Trend-Micro-Know-about-threats-900x473.png 900w, https:\/\/blog.trendmicro.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/September-18-Trend-Micro-Know-about-threats-440x231.png 440w, https:\/\/blog.trendmicro.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/September-18-Trend-Micro-Know-about-threats-380x200.png 380w, https:\/\/blog.trendmicro.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/September-18-Trend-Micro-Know-about-threats.png 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Trend Micro delves into the French Underground<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As Trend Micro researchers have shown, threat intelligence is a global pursuit, and underground marketplaces are surprisingly well connected.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOver the years, Trend Micro researchers have forayed deep into <u><a href=\"https:\/\/www.trendmicro.com\/vinfo\/us\/security\/news\/cybercrime-and-digital-threats\/the-french-underground-under-a-shroud-of-extreme-caution\">various cybercriminal underground markets<\/a><\/u>around the world,\u201d Trend Micro noted in our blog. \u201cThese \u2018visits\u2019 revealed how the more mature markets \u2013 those of Russia and China \u2013 played \u2018big brother\u2019 to younger ones \u2013 those of Germany, Japan, Brazil and North America.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Through a look at the French underground, researchers noticed several similarities and differences between this market and the underground markets of North America. While American markets are more accessible \u2013 including to experienced hackers as well as novices and even law enforcement officers \u2013 the French environment is more closed-off and well-hidden.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c[I]ts players also operate with extreme caution,\u201d the blog noted.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tips and best practices for successful threat intelligence<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>While everyday businesses certainly shouldn\u2019t be poking around in the Dark Web \u2013 leave that up to security experts with the right knowledge and resources, like Trend Micro \u2013 there are ways in which enterprises can support threat intelligence and improved data protection.<\/p>\n<p>First and foremost, it\u2019s important to establish a threat intelligence strategy within the business. This includes the ability to identify incoming threats as well as potential weaknesses that could open the door to security hackers. Such pursuits also align with <u><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.trendmicro.com\/nist-cybersecurity-framework-series-part-1-identify\/\">NIST Cybersecurity Framework functions<\/a><\/u>, including, specifically, the Identify, Protect and Detect functions.<\/p>\n<p>As CSO contributor and Cybersecurity Snippets CSO Jon Oltsik noted, a 2015 report showed that many threat intelligence programs within businesses were \u201c<u><a href=\"https:\/\/www.csoonline.com\/article\/3185209\/security\/toward-strategic-and-proactive-threat-intelligence-programs.html\">relatively immature<\/a><\/u>,\u201d with 40 percent being in place only about two years. Even today, not much has changed, and Oltsik recommended that organizations work to be more mature in their threat intelligence efforts, and \u201cmove beyond cybersecurity\/operational use of threat intelligence alone.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In order to achieve this, experts suggest implementing an \u201coutside-in\u201d model, that includes initiatives to track cybercriminals and their activities and to understand and address current business risks. In addition, mature organizations also work to take part in internal threat hunting, where admins actively explore their infrastructure for elements like kill chain indicators, compromised platforms and weak third-party security processes.<\/p>\n<p>Threat intelligence is a critical pursuit for every organization.
