Want to boost your DevOps security? Here's how to add threat intelligence:

  1. Choose the right intel:

    • Strategic: Long-term planning
    • Tactical: Immediate threats
    • Operational: Ongoing attack response
  2. Set up your intel pipeline:

    • Gather data
    • Analyze it
    • Make it actionable
    • Use it daily
  3. Use these tools:

Tool Type Purpose Example
TIP Collect/analyze threat data ThreatQuotient
SIEM Link intel to system data Splunk
Vulnerability Scanner Check code for issues Nessus
Threat Modeling Tool Show attack paths Microsoft Threat Modeling Tool
  1. Avoid pitfalls:

    • Too much data
    • Bad intel
    • Slowing down dev
    • Skill gaps
  2. Measure success:

    • Incident response speed
    • Pre-release vulnerability detection
    • Overall security improvement

Real-world example: Atlassian saw 40% faster incident response, 60% more vulnerabilities caught, and 25% better security after integrating threat intel.
