Course Overview
Threat Intelligence Essentials (T|IE) is a foundational cybersecurity course designed to provide professionals with a structured understanding of cyber threat intelligence (CTI) and its role in modern security operations. The course focuses on how threat intelligence is collected, analyzed, and operationalized to support proactive defense, risk management, and informed decision-making.
Participants will gain insight into the threat intelligence lifecycle, intelligence sources, adversary tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs), and how intelligence feeds are integrated into security frameworks. The course emphasizes practical understanding over theory, enabling learners to interpret threat data and apply intelligence effectively across technical, operational, and strategic contexts.
This course is ideal for organizations seeking to strengthen their cyber resilience by embedding intelligence-driven security practices across security operations, incident response, and governance functions.
