Threat Intelligence

Know who is targeting your sector and how, with intelligence scoped to your environment and delivered as decisions rather than as a feed.

Threat intelligence is only worth having if it changes what you do. Ours is scoped to your sector, your technology and your suppliers, triaged by analysts, and delivered as decisions rather than as a feed.

Relevance Beats Volume

Most threat intelligence fails the same way most vulnerability data fails: there is too much of it, too little is relevant, and a team that cannot separate the two eventually stops looking. A daily feed of indicators unconnected to your technology stack does not improve your security posture. It consumes the attention of the people who would otherwise be improving it.

The intelligence that changes outcomes is narrower and harder to produce. Which actors realistically target organizations in your sector and supply chain position. What tradecraft they use, mapped to techniques you can hunt for and test against. Whether credentials belonging to your people are currently exposed and, critically, whether they still work. What your vendors have been breached by, and what those vendors could reach inside your environment if it happened again.

That last point is worth emphasizing. Third-party risk programs frequently produce a questionnaire score without ever answering the question that matters: if this supplier were compromised tomorrow, what would the attacker reach? A reachability view of your vendor estate is more useful than any number of completed questionnaires.

  • Adversary profiles mapped to MITRE ATT&CK, so techniques become testable
  • Credential and brand monitoring with validation, not just detection
  • Supply chain intelligence expressed as reachability, not scores
  • Hypothesis-driven threat hunting against your own telemetry

Intelligence drives our offensive work directly: adversary profiles determine which techniques an adversary simulation exercises and which scenarios a red team pursues. Get in touch to discuss what would be useful.

Capabilities

How We Deliver Threat Intelligence

Intelligence is only useful if it changes something. Each capability below is designed to produce a decision, not a document.

01

Adversary Profiling

A clear picture of which threat actors realistically target organizations like yours, what they want, and the tradecraft they actually use.

Our methodology

We build profiles from incident reporting, government advisories and our own operational experience, mapped to MITRE ATT&CK so each technique becomes something you can hunt for and test against rather than a name in a briefing.

  • Sector-specific
  • MITRE ATT&CK mapping
  • Tradecraft
  • Testable techniques
02

Dark Web and Credential Monitoring

Continuous monitoring for your credentials, data and brand across criminal forums, marketplaces, paste sites and breach corpora.

Our methodology

Automated collection across sources, with an analyst confirming relevance and severity before anything reaches you. Credential findings are checked against your authentication surface, so you learn whether an exposed password is actually usable rather than merely present.

  • Credential exposure
  • Initial access brokers
  • Brand monitoring
  • Analyst triage
03

Supply Chain Risk Intelligence

Visibility of the security posture and incident history of the vendors, processors and service providers who hold your data or access your systems.

Our methodology

We map your third-party estate, monitor for incidents and exposure affecting those parties, and assess what each one could reach if compromised. That reachability view is usually more useful than a questionnaire score.

  • Vendor monitoring
  • Fourth-party risk
  • Reachability
  • Incident alerting
04

Threat Hunting

Proactive searching for adversary activity already present in your environment, on the assumption that detection tooling has not caught everything.

Our methodology

Hypothesis-driven hunts derived from adversary profiles relevant to your sector, executed against your telemetry. Each hunt either finds something or establishes that your telemetry could not have found it, and the second outcome is frequently the more valuable.

  • Hypothesis-driven
  • Telemetry gaps
  • Behavioral analytics
  • Assume breach
05

Indicator and Detection Feeds

Curated indicators and detection logic relevant to your sector and technology stack, rather than a high-volume feed that buries your team.

Our methodology

Indicators are filtered for relevance to your environment and delivered with detection logic your tooling can consume directly, alongside the context needed to triage an alert when it fires.

  • Curated indicators
  • Detection logic
  • Low noise
  • Triage context
06

Executive Threat Briefings

Regular briefings for leadership and boards on the threat landscape affecting your sector, translated out of technical language without losing accuracy.

Our methodology

Prepared for the audience in the room, covering what has changed, what it means for your organization specifically, and what decisions it should inform. Delivered live so questions get answered rather than deferred.

  • Board-level
  • Sector-specific
  • Decision-oriented
  • Delivered live
AI-augmented methodology

Machine Speed, Operator Judgment

Automation covers the volume so our operators can spend their time where human judgment wins. Every result is verified by an expert before it reaches you.

Our work aligns to recognized standards including the OWASP Testing Guide and ASVS, PTES, NIST SP 800-115, OSSTMM and MITRE ATT&CK.

How the platform works
01

Autonomous reconnaissance

Continuous mapping of your external attack surface, surfacing new exposures the moment they appear.

02

AI-assisted exploit chaining

Individual weaknesses connected into realistic, high-impact attack paths a real adversary would take.

03

Continuous validation

Findings reflect your live environment, not a stale snapshot, so you act on what is true today.

04

AI-accelerated reporting

Evidence turned into clear, prioritized guidance in a fraction of the usual time, every result human-verified.

How an engagement runs

A tested process, not a black box

Every StrikeCyber engagement follows the same disciplined path, so you always know where you are and what comes next.

  1. 01

    Scope & kick-off

    We agree targets, rules of engagement, timing and success criteria. No surprises, fixed scope, fixed price.

  2. 02

    Offensive testing

    AI-augmented reconnaissance and manual exploitation across your networks, applications, cloud and people.

  3. 03

    Real-time critical alerts

    Anything critical or actively exploitable is escalated the moment we find it, not weeks later in a report.

  4. 04

    Report & debrief

    A prioritized report with reproducible steps and a live debrief for your technical and executive stakeholders.

  5. 05

    Retest & validate

    Once you remediate, we retest to prove the fix holds. Typically one business day per component.

FAQ

Threat Intelligence FAQs

How is this different from a threat intelligence feed?

A feed delivers volume and leaves the interpretation to you, which for most security teams means it becomes background noise within a quarter. Our intelligence is scoped to your sector, your technology and your third-party estate, triaged by an analyst, and delivered with a recommended action. If a piece of intelligence does not change a decision, it does not need to reach you.

We are a mid-sized company. Are we really targeted by named threat actors?

Directly, sometimes; indirectly, very often. Most mid-market intrusions begin with access brokered by somebody who did not know or care who you were, then sold to whoever wanted it. Sector matters more than size, and so does who you supply. Organizations serving defense, healthcare, energy or financial services inherit the interest their customers attract.

What do you do with exposed credentials you find?

Confirm whether they are actually usable before alerting you, which materially reduces noise. An exposed password from an old breach that has since been rotated is a footnote; the same credential still valid against your VPN is an emergency. We check against your authentication surface with your authorization and escalate accordingly.

Can threat hunting run against our existing tooling?

Yes, and we prefer it. Hunts are executed against your telemetry using your platforms, which keeps the work grounded in what you actually have. Where a hunt cannot be completed because the telemetry does not exist, that gap is itself a finding, and usually a more actionable one than whatever we were hunting for.

How does intelligence connect to your testing work?

Directly. Adversary profiles determine which techniques an [adversary simulation](/solution/adversary-simulation/) exercises and which scenarios a red team pursues, so testing reflects the threat you actually face rather than a generic checklist. Intelligence without testing is theory; testing without intelligence tends to default to whatever the tester knows best.

How often are briefings delivered?

Usually quarterly for boards and monthly for security leadership, with out-of-cycle briefings when something material changes for your sector. The cadence matters less than the relevance, and we would rather deliver four briefings a year that change decisions than twelve that get skimmed.
