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

Threat 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.
