Israel Barak, Cybereason CISO

Recorded Future excels at contextualizing data around the activity that's taking place inside of the enterprise network, tying activity in the environment to a specific actor, according to Israel Barak, chief information security officer at Cybereason.

By providing data that's in context, Barak said companies like Recorded Future make it easier to act against known bad actors regardless of technique.

Threat intelligence was traditionally composed of one-off threat feeds, Barak said, with millions of artifacts pouring in but a lack of context around what's actually happening. Adding more context into the detection and investigation process should make threat feeds more actionable, according to Barak.
