Recorded Future is the largest intelligence company, delivering AI-powered insights across adversaries, infrastructure, and targets to help security teams get ahead of threats.

hreat intelligence has become a strategic imperative—and 91% of security leaders are increasing investment to prove it.
The 2025 State of Threat Intelligence industry survey of 615 global security executives reveals a fundamental shift: Threat intelligence is no longer confined to SOCs and incident response teams. It's now driving board-level decisions, M&A due diligence, and strategic business actions. 
76% spend $250,000+ annually on threat intelligence.
76% use it for security decisions at least weekly. 
58% rely on it for business risk assessments.
But here's the catch: Three critical gaps are preventing organizations from maximizing their threat intelligence initiatives—and they're the difference between programs that tackle day-to-day operations and those that transform their security posture.
Join Dave Gruber, Principal Analyst, Ransomware, SecOps, Services at TechTarget, and Jason Steer, Chief Information Security Officer at Recorded Future to learn about:
The shift from reactive to strategic: How leading teams use threat intelligence to drive business decisions, from purchasing to risk assessment
The maturity journey: What separates advanced programs from those still struggling with credibility and integration
The consolidation playbook: Why organizations are spending more on fewer, better vendors
This isn't another threat landscape webinar. This is about the business case, the maturity roadmap, and the competitive advantage your peers are already building.

From Tactical to Strategic: How 615 Security Leaders Are Transforming Their Threat Intelligence Programs

Your security team spends
●  just 1–2 hours per week actually hunting threats
● while burning 8–12 hours on query creation 
● and 2–4 hours per incident on manual correlation. 

What if you could flip that ratio?
Join Recorded Future's threat intelligence experts to discover how autonomous threat operations eliminate foundational work, accelerate investigations, and empower your team to focus on what matters: stopping threats before they impact your organization.
You’ll discover: 
● Why speed and direction are the new threat operations currency
● The critical difference between "autonomous" and "automated" for threat intelligence
● How the right capabilities can enable autonomous threat operations 
● How to present ROI metrics that prove security's business value to leadership
● How to assess your current maturity and map your path to autonomous operations

Don't let manual processes consume your team's expertise. 

Join this webinar to learn how autonomous threat operations can transform your security posture from reactive to predictive.

Recorded Future 2025 Roadmap | Quarterly Update

Modern business depends on satellite infrastructure — for communication, GPS navigation, financial transactions, supply chain logistics, weather forecasting, and more. 

But as satellites become increasingly critical to operations in every sector, space has emerged as a key new attack surface for cybercriminals and nation-state threat actors.

As space and cyber converge to create a volatile and uncertain landscape, traditional cybersecurity technology may not be able to detect the signals of coming attacks. Join our virtual briefing to discover how — with the right threat intelligence platform — your organization can be among the first to identify, monitor, and mitigate relevant new threats as soon as signals appear.

Defending Against Scattered Spider & RedMike

Imagine cutting your threat response time from weeks to minutes, with powerful malware analysis capabilities that speak your language.

Traditional malware analysis is siloed, manual, and resource-heavy—relying on sandboxes that miss evasive threats and workflows that demand rare expertise. And so far in 2025, Recorded Future has identified over 3 million unique samples showing defence evasion techniques.

Recorded Future's new Malware Intelligence, enhancing our overall Threat Intelligence offering, transforms how security teams hunt, detect, and respond to malware threats. By combining our Intelligence Graph and over 1.5M+ newly analysed malware samples daily, CTI analysts to Incident Responders to Threat Hunters can access the data they quickly need to understand the scope of the threat, and most importantly act quickly.

We’ll showcase these new capabilities live, including:

Natural Language Malware Hunting: Watch as we search for complex malware behaviours using plain English queries instead of specialised query languages

Real-time Malware Alerts: See how custom alert rules immediately flag new malware variants matching your specific threat concerns

AutoYARA Rule Generation: Witness the creation of validated YARA rules in minutes, with confidence scoring and false positive prevention

Sandbox Analysis in Action: Observe live malware detonation in our controlled environment with detailed behavioural analysis
