How to prepare for and plan your organisation's response to severe cyber threat: a guide for CNI

Staying informed about the evolving threat landscape is essential since understanding the threat helps identify the right actions. One of the most effective ways to do this is by actively engaging with intelligence-sharing communities, forums, and collaborative platforms. 

You should be aware of relevant threat intelligence sources – such as trust groups, community groups and information exchanges. These spaces can allow organisations to exchange insights, discuss emerging threats, and learn from real-world incidents in a timely and confidential manner. Participating actively in these networks can help to ensure you're not operating alone.

In periods of severe cyber threat, consider lowering the threshold for sharing threat intelligence and insights with partners and within your sector.
