MITREâs new âATT&CKâ resource an encyclopedia of cyber threats>
Federal News Network – Amelia Brust
Improving cybersecurity across federal agencies requires staying on top of new and evolving threats. Now, the MITRE Corporation has a new resource, called ATT&CK, to further that mission. In an effort to share reliable information, each ATT&CK entry includes the source material for these attributions. As Struse acknowledged, the existence of this collection indicates or implies that no single organization knows everything going on across the internet. For chief information officers and others who work closely with network defenses, Struse said ATT&CK is helpful for communicating threats in a concrete way. It is presented as a matrix with currently 223 cells which can help organizations prioritize their threats, as well as judge which areas of the cyber infrastructure are sufficiently protected.
