In cybersecurity, understanding an adversary’s identity, capabilities, and intent is critical to intelligent cyber defense. Attribution matters. Despite cyber threat intelligence tracking a multitude of threat actors for many decades, accurately attributing malicious activity continues to be difficult. Vendors and researchers often see different parts of the same puzzle — or entirely different puzzles — due to differences in telemetry. Organizations also have different standards and analytic maturity, which results in varying levels of visibility into threat activity and divergent perspectives on what’s being tracked.
Cybersecurity leaders, executive teams, and boards increasingly seek clear answers: Who is targeting us? How are they doing it? And why? To deliver those answers, attribution must be clearer, faster, and more consistent.
As cybersecurity becomes increasingly central to business resilience and national security, the challenge of adversary attribution has grown more urgent. Over the past several decades, multiple naming systems have emerged — each shaped by …
