Visibility into targeted attacks
Analysed threat intelligence to identify and prioritise targeted and long-running attacks, actors, methods and infrastructure
Cyber Threat Intelligence for enterprises —
analysed threat intelligence for detection, prioritisation and response
Fitsec's CTI service combines technical indicators, adversary understanding, analyst-level interpretation and knowledge of the Finnish operating environment. It does not just produce more threat feeds — it provides an actionable cyber situational picture to support decision-making and response
Fitsec CTI in a nutshell
- Helps identify significant threats earlier and reduces analyst workload
- Brings context to SIEM, SOAR and EDR observations and supports prioritisation and response
- Combines strategic and tactical threat intelligence with analyst-level interpretation
- The service is produced in Finland, and customer data stays in Finland
How does threat intelligence reduce analysis workload?
Without analyzed threat intelligence
the security team sees only a large volume of events, IOC lists, and separate alerts without clear prioritization
With analyzed threat intelligence
it is possible to distinguish which observations are linked to current campaigns, known attacker activity, supply chains, or risk that is exceptional for the environment

Frequently asked questions
What does Cyber Threat Intelligence mean?
Cyber Threat Intelligence means analysed information about cyber threats, their actors and methods. It helps organisations understand threats and make better security decisions.
How does threat intelligence help organisations improve cyber security?
It brings visibility into current threats and helps anticipate risks. As a result, the organisation can react faster and target protections correctly.
What kind of threat intelligence services does Fitsec offer?
Fitsec provides analysed and contextualised threat intelligence that supports both operational security work and strategic decision-making. The content is tailored to the organisation's needs.
How does Fitsec's CTI differ from automated threat feed services?
Automated feeds often provide raw data without context. Fitsec's CTI focuses on analysis, prioritisation and what the information means in practice.
Who in the organisation benefits the most from CTI?
CTI especially benefits SOC teams, analysts and security management. It supports both daily operational work and strategic risk management.
How does CTI support SOC teams and analysts?
It provides ready-analysed information about threats and their methods. This speeds up analysis and reduces manual data gathering.
How often is threat intelligence updated?
Information is updated continuously based on new observations and analysis.
What sources is Fitsec's threat intelligence based on?
It combines several sources, such as technical analysis, open sources and expert work. This forms a complete picture of threats.
How does CTI support proactive threat hunting?
It provides starting points and hypotheses for hunting threats. This helps identify threats before they cause damage.
Can Fitsec's CTI integrate with SIEM or other security systems?
Yes. CTI can be integrated into existing security solutions so that the information can be used directly in operational work.
What kind of indicators are typically included in CTI reports?
Reports may include, for example, IP addresses, domains and other technical observations.
Does CTI include analysis of malware and attack techniques?
Yes. CTI combines technical analysis and broader context so that threats are understood as a whole.
How does CTI help prioritise cyber security risks?
It helps separate the essential threats from the less significant ones. Resources can then be allocated more effectively.
Can CTI be used in incident response situations?
Yes. It provides background information and context, speeding up understanding and response.
Is CTI useful also for management's risk awareness?
Yes. It helps management understand the impact of threats on the business and make well-founded decisions.
How does Fitsec ensure the reliability of threat intelligence?
Information is validated from multiple sources and analysed by experts. This ensures high quality and reliability.
How does CTI help understand new and evolving cyber threats?
It tracks the development of threats and surfaces new phenomena at an early stage.
Economic benefits of threat intelligence
Prevented data breach
Savings up to€5,000,000
According to IBM's Cost of a Data Breach report (2023), the average cost of a data breach can rise to €3.5–5 million in the Nordics. Fitsec's threat intelligence provides early warning even 6–8 months before similar observations appear in public sources.
Avoiding GDPR fines and follow-up costs
Savings up to€2,000,000
GDPR legislation allows fines of up to 2% of a company's turnover. With threat intelligence, a data leak can be prevented before customer data is exfiltrated.
Mitigating denial-of-service attacks
Savings up to€500,000
A long-running DDoS attack (e.g. 12h) interrupting an online store or banking service can cause losses of hundreds of thousands or even millions of euros. The DDoS component of threat intelligence enables anticipation and minimisation of impact.
