AWS’s FortiGate write-up is a good reminder: AI may speed attackers up, but fundamentals still decide outcomes (exposed management, weak creds, single-factor auth). IOC checks won’t cut it. This is a perfect use case for threat-informed defence. What stood out to you? aws.amazon.com/blogs/securi...

LLM demo in 3 acts (screenshots): it confidently mapped to ATT&CK T1219, then insisted T1219.002 “doesn’t exist,” then reversed when shown the official MITRE link. Vendors are shipping this unverified, defenders chase ghosts. Verification > vibes. #ThreatIntel #CyberSecurity

Our default CTI rule: don’t guess. No attribution? → we don't attribute No victim geo/industry? → we don't list it Unclear ATT&CK mapping? → a human rejects it False certainty is expensive, especially in an incident What’s your team’s rule for handling unknowns? #ThreatIntel #CyberSecurity

Most “threat intel” = lists of IPs. That’s not intelligence. It’s raw data. Real CTI follows a full cycle: Direction → Collection → Processing → Analysis → Dissemination → Feedback. We do this at Arachne Digital. We just broke it down: arachnedigital.medium.com/from-data-to...
