A Threat Intelligence Analyst is responsible for identifying, analyzing, and interpreting cyber threats that could impact an organization’s systems and operations. They collect and evaluate data from various sources to uncover threat actors, tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs). These professionals transform raw intelligence into actionable insights, helping security teams anticipate, prevent, and respond to cyberattacks effectively.
