MITRE

In your cyber security journey so far, you've likely come across the name MITRE (opens in new tab), perhaps when researching a known exploit or exploring various tactics used by attackers. MITRE is a not-for-profit organization that conducts research and development across a range of domains, including cyber security, artificial intelligence, healthcare, and space systems, all to support its mission: "to solve problems for a safer world."

In this room, we will focus on MITRE's cyber security frameworks and resources, including MITRE ATT&CK®, the CAR Knowledge Base, D3FEND, MITRE Engage™, and other relevant tools. These resources have become crucial in modern security, enabling both red and blue teams to understand adversary behavior, develop more effective detections, and enhance their defenses.

Learning Objectives

• Understand the purpose and structure of the MITRE ATT&CK® Framework
• Explore how security professionals apply ATT&CK in their work
• Use cyber threat intelligence (CTI) and the ATT&CK Matrix to profile threats
• Discover MITRE’s other frameworks, including CAR and D3FEND

Prerequisites

• Complete Cyber Kill Chain to build a foundational understanding of how cyber attacks unfold from start to finish.
