Presentation Title

Presentation: Intelligence Driven Defense & Cyber Kill Chain

Presentation Overview

Cyber threats are constantly evolving and becoming more frequent and sophisticated. While there are many traditional incident response methodologies, we will be focusing specifically on the Cyber Kill Chain (CKC) methodology using the Intelligence Driven Defense(IDD) framework as this will be part of Duke Energy’s CSOC implementation. The intelligence collected from various sources and the more knowledge you have about a certain campaign or adversary, the better you can proactively drive your defense using the CKC model. We will present a campaign and decompose the threat applying the CKC model while leveraging the IDD framework from different data points.
