The Human Side of Threat Intelligence

Show notes

Ingrid Parker, Director of Intel Response at Unit 42, has a background that doesn't fit the mold: art student, Army linguist, systems administrator deployed to Afghanistan, co-author of 11 Strategies of a World-Class Cybersecurity Operations Center. In this conversation, she and David dig into what it actually feels like to do threat intelligence at the highest levels — how you build the kind of thinking that lets you get inside an adversary's head, what you look for when you're hiring for that skill, and what the job quietly costs the people who do it well.
