During an incident analysis session, a security analyst is charting out an intrusion based on the intersection of different elements like the tools used, the infrastructure leveraged for attack execution, and the profile of the threat actor. Without explicitly classifying these elements, the analyst is attempting to recognize patterns and adversaries through correlating disparate but related events. Which analysis framework aligns with the analyst's approach for gaining actionable intelligence?
Diamond Model of Intrusion Analysis
Indicators of Compromise (IoCs) framework
Adversary Tactics, Techniques, and Common Knowledge (ATT&CK)
The analyst is using the Diamond Model without directly referencing its terminology. This framework enables analysts to understand and visualize the relationships between different components of an intrusion. The capability (tools used), infrastructure, and adversary are directly referred to in the question, indicating that this is the framework in use. The other frameworks listed do not focus on the relational aspect of these components as directly.
