Structured analytical techniques are commonplace in the intelligence and security community, but are yet to become commonplace in cyber security. They are designed to ensure that analytical processes are rigorous and free from bias, and that any findings are communicated clearly and accurately to readers. Based on my experience in threat intelligence, and broader cyber security, this talk will present an overview of some commonly used techniques, identify a number of quick wins for applying them to cyber security, and demonstrate the benefits they are able to bring. My aim is that attendees will leave with an appreciation of the importance and mechanics of some basic analytical techniques, and be able to apply these to their work in the field (and in doing so benefit the wider community)
