Req ID : 1657605
- Cyber intelligence analysts conduct “all-source analysis, digital forensics and targeting to identify, monitor, assess and counter the threat posed by [criminal] cyber actors.” This is the definition found on the website of the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency (CIA).
- Cyber intelligence analysts work for the government or corporations or as independent contractors. These professionals leverage their background in technology, science, mathematics and computer programming to impede criminals from accessing proprietary data.
- Cyber intelligence analysts utilize threat intelligence to mitigate any potential data threats and defend data. Moreover, they compile reports that identify ways for their organizations to pinpoint and prepare for potential threats.
- Cyber intelligence analysts must also have the expertise to identify an organization’s security vulnerabilities and pinpoint indicators of compromise (IOC) such as suspicious IP addresses, URLs, email addresses and attachments, registry keys and filenames. These IOCs could signify malware attacks, phishing attempts or attacks from external hosts.
- The cyber intelligence analyst profession is fast paced. It also requires professionals to maintain a current knowledge on the voluminous amount and types of cyber threats that are developed daily. In some cases, analysts must think like cyber criminals to stay ahead of these digital threats, ensuring they can work to aggressively protect their employer’s data. It is also their responsibility to effectively communicate potential threats that could harm the growth, reputation and financial stability of an organization.
