2026 SANS CTI Survey Insights: From Indicators to Insights

Every year the SANS Cyber Threat Intelligence Survey takes the pulse of the discipline. The 2026 results are in, and they show a function under real pressure to prove its worth.

This session walks through the findings: where AI and automation are genuinely changing analyst workflows and where they are not, which CTI practices are gaining ground, the challenges analysts report most often, and how teams are measuring the value and effectiveness they deliver back to the business.

Ideal for CTI analysts and leads, SOC managers, threat hunters, and security leaders who need to defend a threat intelligence budget with evidence.
