The DeepINTEL security intelligence conference focuses on threats, indicators of compromise, and strategic counter measures. Information security is more than superficial. This is why we have asked Markus Auer to hold a presentation at DeepINTEL (28 November 2018). He explains his ideas in short: We are tired of adding new products to our ever-growing security structure. Although this has been a common practice for years, it does not bring lasting success. Attacks continue to occur – faster, more comprehensively and with much greater impact and rising costs. Despite all protection levels and measures, the current security approach fails. We want to stop the expansion and purchase of more reactive products that are targeted to the recent attack. Instead, security operations should be improved by aligning existing security technologies and teams and using the information

Cyber threat information comes from a variety of sources, including sharing communities such as Information Sharing and Analysis Centers (ISACs), open-source, and commercial sources. Immediately actionable information is mainly low-level indicators of compromise, such as known malware hash values or command-and-control IP addresses, where an actionable response can be executed automatically by a system. Threat intelligence refers to more complex cyber threat information that has been subjected to the analysis of existing information. Information such as different Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures (TTPs) used over
