\frametitle{What is MISP?}
\begin{itemize}
       \item MISP is a {\bf threat information sharing} platform that is free \& open source software
       \item A tool that {\bf collects} information from partners, your analysts, your tools, feeds
       \item Normalises, {\bf correlates}, {\bf enriches} and {\bf connects} the data
       \item Allows teams and communities to {\bf collaborate} and {\bf share}
       \item {\bf Feeds} automated protective tools and analyst tools with the output
       \item MISP is a {\bf complete threat intelligence platform} with strong sharing capabilities and extendability
\end{itemize}
\end{frame}

  \frametitle{The aim of this presentation}
  \begin{itemize}
      \item {\Large Showing the {\bf evolution of threat intelligence}\footnote{based on our empirical view from users using/integrating MISP} and 
      \item {\bf data-driven threat hunting} over the past years}
      \item {\Large What can we expect in {\bf the future}?}
  \end{itemize}
\end{frame}

\begin{frame}
  \frametitle{From standalone indicator to advanced object data models}
  \begin{itemize}
    \item In early 2010, MISP supported basic indicators sharing with a limited set of types
    \item In 2022, MISP integrates a dynamic object model with advanced custom relationships 
    \item Why such evolution?
        \begin{itemize}
            \item {\bf Increase of intelligence usage in different sectors}. From threat-hunting\footnote{With different types of threat hunts including TTP-driven, intelligence-driven, asset-driven...} to risk assessment or strategic decisions
            \item {\bf Increased diversity among analysts}
        \end{itemize}
  \end{itemize}
\end{frame}

\begin{frame}
  \frametitle{Multitude of intelligence models}
  \begin{itemize}
     \item Chains, triangles, circles, diamonds, arrows, a mix or even a multi-layer matrix
     \item There is {\bf no perfect intelligence models}
     \item Organisations invent their model, reuse existing ones or are even more creative
     \item Showing {\bf how diverse\footnote{Embrace the diversity of models, taxonomies} our societies are}
  \end{itemize}
\end{frame}

\begin{frame}
  \frametitle{Main focus was securing our data and tooling}
  \begin{itemize}
      \item Current {\bf geo-political situation} lead to new challenges
      \item It has been an interesting time period with quite some activity
      \item Our goal was to {\bf shore up the security} aspects of MISP and Cerebrate
      \item Build new functionalities and tools to allow users to {\bf protect their data}
  \end{itemize}
\end{frame}

\begin{frame}
  \frametitle{Sharing group blueprints}

  \frametitle{Cryptographic signing and tamper protection}
  \begin{itemize}
     \item Need to be able to share and ensure the {\bf veracity of critical events}
     \item Tampering by {\bf malicious intermediaries}, even in closed networks became a new fear
     \item We came up with a solution that allows us to {\bf lock down critical events}
     \item Limits the distribution, but {\bf increases the resilience} of MISP immensely
  \end{itemize}
