What metrics can be used to measure the effectiveness of a CTI program in identifying and mitigating relevant cyber threats?
Metrics that can be used to measure the effectiveness of a Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI) program in identifying and mitigating relevant cyber threats include:
1. Time to Detect: The time taken to identify potential threats from the moment they first appear until they are detected by the CTI program.
2. Threat Intelligence Quality: Assessing the relevance, accuracy, and completeness of the threat intelligence data collected and analyzed by the CTI program.
3. Threat Detection Rate: The percentage of identified threats compared to the total number of potential threats in a given period.
4. Incident Response Time: How quickly the CTI program responds to threats once they are detected, including the time it takes to investigate and remediate the threat.
5. False Positive Rate: The frequency of false alarms or incorrectly identified threats generated by the CTI program.
6. Incident Resolution Rate: The rate at which identified threats are successfully mitigated or resolved by the CTI program.
7. Impact on Security Posture: How the CTI program has influenced or improved the overall security posture of the organization in terms of reduced vulnerabilities and successful threat mitigation.
These metrics can help organizations evaluate the effectiveness of their CTI programs and make informed decisions to enhance their cybersecurity defenses.
