D3FEND 1.0: A Milestone in Cyber Ontology - Peter Kaloroumakis - ESW #388

Enterprise Security Weekly (Audio)

Since D3FEND was founded to fill a gap created by the MITRE ATT&CK Matrix, it has come a long way. We discuss the details of the 1.0 release of D3FEND with Peter in this episode, along with some of the new tools they've built to go along with this milestone.

To use MITRE's own words to describe the gap this project fills:

"it is necessary that practitioners know not only what threats a capability claims to address, but specifically how those threats are addressed from an engineering perspective, and under what circumstances the solution would work"
