The control as we hold it
Threat intelligence. Information about security threats is to be gathered and examined so that it yields threat intelligence. Purpose (stated in ISO/IEC 27002:2022): makes the organization aware of the threats it faces so fitting mitigations can be chosen. As an Annex A reference control, it is compared with the controls determined in risk treatment (6.1.3 c) and recorded in the Statement of Applicability as included or excluded, with the justification and implementation status (6.1.3 d); implementation guidance is ISO/IEC 27002:2022 5.7.
