The Measure, Maximize, and Mature Threat-Informed Defense (M3TID) project defines what Threat-Informed Defense is and the key activities associated with its practice. The project captures insights and best practices for what it means to be threat-informed across a security program, expanding the dimensions of Threat-Informed Defense into key components that organizations can implement. For each of these components, the project defines specific elements of implementation maturity, which enables organizations to assess and to understand the current and future state of their threat-informed defense program.
