This could leave the organization vulnerable to cyber threats.<\/p>\n<p>To close this gap, the Silobreaker paper says, \u00a0threat intelligence teams must have a clear understanding of their stakeholders in the business, how to communicate with them and be aware of what types of results and outputs they need to hear about to ensure a meaningful and positive response.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThreat intelligence only delivers value when it changes decisions. Too often, there\u2019s a disconnect between what analysts uncover and what senior leaders need to prioritise risk and act with confidence,\u201d said Geoff Brown, CEO of\u00a0Silobreaker.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How to Build Threat Intelligence for Business Leaders<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Threat intelligence briefings and outputs must be designed to meet what senior leadership and risk management most urgently need to hear about.<\/p>\n<p>According to the report, this includes clarity on enterprise exposure to inform relevant stakeholders on what the main cyber risks to the mission of the organization are.<\/p>\n<p>A forward-looking risk posture should be&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.infosecurity-magazine.com\/news\/business-leaders-struggle-threat\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Business Leaders Lack Understanding of Threat Intelligence https:\/\/www.infosecurity-magazine.com\/news\/business-leaders-struggle-threat\/ Publish Date: 2026-06-02 04:30:00 Source Domain: www.infosecurity-magazine.com&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":261846,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/assets.infosecurity-magazine.com\/webpage\/og\/0a6a2e56-280a-47f9-875c-0f164bba8a63.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[15],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-261845","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-cybersecurity"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/261845"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=261845"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/261845\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":261847,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/261845\/revisions\/261847"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/261846"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=261845"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=261845"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=261845"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
