Cyber Attribution

C

Cyber attribution refers to identifying and determining the origin of a cyber attack, specifically the individuals, groups, or nation-states responsible for carrying out the attack. Attribution involves:

  • Gathering evidence.

  • Analyzing data and characteristics of the attack.

  • Determining the motive, intention, and goals of the attacker.

Cyber attribution is crucial in determining the appropriate response to a cyber attack, such as diplomatic, economic, or military measures, and developing effective cybersecurity and cyber defense strategies. 

ThreatNG can help with cyber attribution by identifying an organization's external assets and monitoring them for vulnerabilities and threats, thus enabling the attribution of the attack to a specific individual or group. ThreatNG also helps identify the root cause of security issues, prioritize security efforts, and provide a comprehensive view of an organization's cybersecurity posture. By enabling proactive measures to prevent cyberattacks and responding effectively to incidents, ThreatNG helps organizations to better understand their cybersecurity posture and attribute cyber threats and attacks.
