This talk will examine Intelligence Preparation for the Battlefield and for the Environment (IPB/IPE) for the cyber domain. We will look at the conventional intelligence methodologies and use our findings to answer key questions for Intelligence Preparation of the Cyber Environment (IPCE): What do I look I look like to my attackers, what do my attackers look like to me, how are we likely to “do battle,” and thus how can I better prepare for it. The talk will
provide an overview of how the conventional methodology is applied to the cyber environment and, ultimately, how it applies to
the organizations of attendees themselves.

We’ll look at how to collect information on the attackers, how to understand your own environment, and how to visualize a likely attack and prepare for it.
