Om sesjonen

Most CTI begin with a focus on tracking threats, IOCs, and producing reports, but often struggle to demonstrate real business value with stakeholders.

This session shares lessons learned from building and maturing a CTI program from the ground up – going from a reactive function into a strategic capability that informs decisions, reduces risk, and expands across the enterprise.

Through practical, real-world examples, this talk walks through the key inflection points in CTI maturity from early-stage challenges to scaling intelligence through relationships, metrics, and storytelling. Attendees will leave with actionable insights on how to transform CTI into a function the business depends on and most importantly…trusts.
