Cyber Threat Intelligence with Nigel Boston | EP. 26

Chatting with Nigel Boston, who is a Senior Cyber Threat Intelligence Professional. Nigel has built and led threat intelligence programs that reduce incident response times, operationalize threat intelligence, and automate workflows to help teams focus on what really matters: staying ahead of the threat curve. In this episode, we discuss how Nigel discovered cyber threat intelligence and carved a path into the field, what core security skills make a difference in Cyber Threat Intelligence, and how threat intelligence intersects with detection engineering, cloud security, and even AI. We also dive into the future of threat intelligence, the rise of actionable intelligence, and his new course, Cyber Threat Intelligence Fundamentals, with Ellington Cyber Academy (ECA), which is a game-changer for anyone looking to break into the space. We’ve also had Kenneth, the founder of ECA, in EP 10, so definitely be sure to check that out. Whether you're new to cybersecurity or aiming to level up your threat intel game, this conversation is packed with clarity, strategy, and real-world wisdom. Quick side note: This episode was filmed in November 2024, so you can expect to see me with shorter hair. 🔔 Don’t forget to like, comment, and follow! → Nigel's LinkedIn → Nigel's Course → ECA _____________ RELATED EPISODES/VIDEOS 🎙️Episode with Kenneth Ellignton on SIEM & SOAR _____________ SPONSORS 👨🏾‍💻 ⁠⁠Enhance your coding skills for cybersecurity with Code Crafters⁠⁠ 🦾 ⁠⁠Enhance your health to manage your challenging cybersecurity career with Ultrahuman⁠⁠ _____________ ⚡️⁠⁠JOIN 6,000+ CWX MEMBERS ON DISCORD⁠⁠ 📰 S⁠⁠UBSCRIBE TO THE CYBERWOX UNPLUGGED NEWSLETTER⁠⁠ 🥶 ⁠⁠WINTER MERCH⁠⁠ _____________ 🧬 CYBERWOX RESOURCES 🔹⁠⁠ Cyberwox Cybersecurity Notion Templates for planning your career⁠⁠ 🔹 ⁠⁠Cyberwox Best Entry-Level Cybersecurity Resume Template⁠⁠ 🔹 ⁠⁠Learn AWS Threat Detection with my LinkedIn Learning Course⁠⁠ _____________ 📱 LET'S CONNECT → ⁠⁠IG⁠⁠ → ⁠⁠Threads⁠⁠ → ⁠⁠Substack⁠⁠ → ⁠⁠Twitter⁠⁠ → ⁠⁠Linkedin⁠⁠ → ⁠⁠Tiktok⁠⁠ Email: [email protected] _____________ #️⃣ Relevant Hashtags#cybersecurity #hacking #bootcamp #threatdetection #cloudcomputing #cloudsecurity #technology #tech #dallas #texas #cloud _____________ ⚠️DISCLAIMER This description has some affiliate links, and I may receive a small commission for purchases made through these links.
