Following the i2 User Group event we held on August 17 in Mexico City, I’d like to delve into the topic of cyber intelligence, its primary objective, and the benefits it offers to both private and public organizations.
The i2 User Group by Cybolt
The Cybolt i2 User Group aimed to share knowledge and experiences with attendees, including data analysts, investigators, police officers, experts in prevention, anti-money laundering (AML), fraud, and digital forensics. The main idea was to present use cases from sector experts and share updates and new features of i2 tools.
For those unfamiliar, the i2 platform is a technology that helps make the world a safer place. It aids in tracking threats and investigating physical, digital, and financial crimes through the analysis of structured data (such as database information and sensor-collected data) and geolocation systems. It also includes unstructured data and open-source information from social media, the web, and the deep web, including text, video, and more. This analysis can be performed on both internal and external organizational information, correlating these data sources.
The Power of i2 Tools
Thanks to the power of i2 tools, we can collect, analyze, and clearly visualize all this complex information. We can establish correlations, link information, identify behavior patterns and operating methods, connections between people or associations, and trends. This streamlines, facilitates, and strengthens investigation processes during significant events.
Cyber Intelligence and Cybolt
Cybolt is dedicated to helping organizations protect, mitigate, and neutralize risks. Our mission is to create spaces of trust, which means always staying a step ahead of cybercriminals. Achieving this is no easy task, considering the varied ecosystem of cybersecurity solutions within an organization.
Cyber intelligence adds an extra layer of protection, placing us in an advanced position. For this reason, Cybolt has established a business unit providing visibility to organizations to identify and manage risks and threats through complex information analysis.
Benefits of Cyber Intelligence
Our cyber intelligence experts assist companies in gathering, analyzing, and utilizing information to identify threats in cyberspace and strengthen their investigation processes. For a comprehensive and robust security strategy, having as much high-quality intelligence as possible is crucial for informed decision-making. This means understanding what we must defend against and what is happening in cyberspace, including current attack trends.
Cyber intelligence benefits both governments and businesses by:
- Facilitating threat detection in cyberspace.
- Contributing to organizational risk management.
- Supporting digital resource protection strategies.
- Improving incident response.
- Enhancing national digital security.
- Strengthening justice system operations.
- Protecting critical infrastructure.
- Providing intelligence for better decision-making.
With a cybersecurity strategy reinforced by cyber intelligence services, companies gain a clear view of known threats, enabling them to anticipate and respond effectively. While cybersecurity involves implementing practical solutions to prevent, detect, and mitigate attacks, cyber intelligence focuses on investigating potential threats and analyzing the cyberspace to anticipate attacks. When an attack materializes, it provides tools for forensic analysis and event investigation.
