Featured Private Sector Field: Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI)

The FBI Association of Intelligence Analysts is a community of intelligence professionals who began their careers in the FBI and later transitioned to the private sector, academia, and the nonprofit sector.

One of the most frequently asked questions we receive is:

“What type of jobs exist outside the FBI that align with the role of an Intelligence Analyst?”

🌐 We’d like to highlight an increasingly important field: Cyber threat intelligence (CTI).

➡️ Cyber threat intelligence is the collection, analysis, and dissemination of information about cyber threats, adversaries, and their tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs). CTI helps organizations anticipate cyber threats, defend against attacks, and develop proactive security strategies for risk management and other elements of cyber defense.

For those with experience in threat analysis, adversary tracking, and intelligence reporting, cyber threat intelligence offers a natural transition. Organizations across finance, technology, and critical infrastructure rely on CTI professionals to identify cyber threat activity, assess risks, and strengthen their cybersecurity posture.
