Cyber Threat Intelligence

Current offering — AY2026/2027 Semester 1

The primary goal is to teach YOU how to turn raw, chaotic data into actionable intelligence. Rather than just identifying that a breach happened, this course empowers you to understand the who, why, and how behind an attack. You will master the Cyber Intelligence Lifecycle, learning to identify "Indicators of Compromise" (IoCs) and apply structural analysis to predict an adversary's next move.

  • Master "Analyst Tradecraft" - You won't just learn tools; you'll learn how to think. By studying Cognitive Bias and Structural Analysis Techniques, you'll learn how to avoid common mental traps that lead to false conclusions during an investigation.
  • Gain High-Demand Technical Skills You will walk away with a toolkit that includes: OSINT Proficiency: Learning how to use tools like VirusTotal and navigate the criminal underground.
  • Threat Hunting: Mastering host-based and network-based indicators to find hidden threats. Confidence Scoring: Learning how to mathematically determine how much "trust" to put into a piece of intel.
Total hours per week: 2.5 hrs
