JJ Cummings: The art of controlling information
Summary: JJ Cummings, who leads Cisco Talos' Threat Intelligence and Interdiction team focused on nation-state security and intelligence, describes how partner information often arrives with restrictions that prevent sharing it with anyone else. He says his team works to attribute findings in unattributable or alternatively attributable ways so that identifying a threat does not expose the partner who provided the information.
Bottom line: Threat intelligence sharing depends on partners who demand that their feedback go no further, so the team's ability to publish findings without burning those sources is what keeps the information flowing at all.
