Threat intelligence relies on intelligence sharing between organizations that would otherwise be competitors. There are many commonalities between threat actor and capitalist methodology, vs threat intelligence and socialist methodology. Threat intelligence practices benefit the herd, while threat actor practices benefit the predator. How does responsible disclosure benefit the herd? Does treating zero-day exploits as intellectual property benefit the predator? Who benefits when threat researchers make up new names for previously identified threats?
