Enhancement: APT Hub - Threat Actor Profiling and Campaign Tracking

Description:

The APT Hub aims to provide a comprehensive view of Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs), enabling users to stay informed about emerging threats and actors. This enhancement focuses on developing threat actor profiling and campaign tracking capabilities to enhance the APT Hub's threat intelligence features.

Motivation:

Threat actor profiling and campaign tracking are critical components of threat intelligence, allowing users to understand the motivations, tactics, and techniques of threat actors. By developing these capabilities, the APT Hub will provide users with a more comprehensive understanding of APTs, enabling them to better anticipate and respond to emerging threats.

Proposed Changes:

• Develop a threat actor profiling feature that includes:
  • Threat actor name and alias(es)
  • Country of origin
  • Motivations and goals
  • Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures (TTPs)
  • Associated campaigns and operations
• Implement campaign tracking capabilities, including:
  • Campaign name and description
  • Target industries and sectors
  • Attack vectors and malware used
  • Geographical scope and impact
• Enhance the APT Hub's data analytics and visualization capabilities to provide users with a clear and concise view of threat actor profiles and campaign tracking data
• Integrate with existing threat intelligence feeds and sources to ensure comprehensive and up-to-date threat actor profiling and campaign tracking data

Benefits:

• Improved threat intelligence accuracy and completeness
• Enhanced user understanding of APTs and threat actors
• Increased ability to anticipate and respond to emerging threats
• Greater value and return on investment for APT Hub users

Priority:

High

Estimation:

• 4-6 weeks for designing and prototyping the threat actor profiling and campaign tracking features
• 8-12 weeks for developing and testing the features
• 2-3 weeks for integrating with existing threat intelligence feeds and sources

Dependencies:

• data ingestion pipeline
• Threat intelligence feeds and sources integration

this would be a perfect primer for incorporating Attack Flow for visualizing the attack patterns. We could even go so far as using their Best Practices Guide to Open Source Report Selection This could be used as a prompt to identify high quality articles for consideration to enhance or change an attack flow. https://center-for-threat-informed-defense.github.io/attack-flow/example_flows/
