Why CTI platforms fail to deliver, and what we do instead
Ninety percent of Cyber Threat Intelligence reports scratch the surface. There are two reasons, and most vendors won't say either out loud.
Hire ten inexperienced analysts, train them on a platform, and you get ten people producing the same report.
That's the first one — a cost-effective mindset that backfires. The second is that those analysts never get developed. Unskilled analysts without real training produce CTI with identification gaps in it, and the decision-maker reading that report isn't just under-informed. They're misled, which is worse.
Lean on machine-driven process and over-automation, and the gaps don't close. They get formatted.
The alternative isn't a better platform. It's people who are good at this. That does more for your deliverables than you'd expect.
