“ [t]he intelligence resulting from the integration of scientifically examined materials and other information to establish full characterization, attribution, and the linkage of events, locations, items, signatures, nefarious intent, and persons of interest.[1] ”

Overview

Forensic-enabled intelligence

“ helps accurately identify networked and complex threats and attributes them to specific incidents and activities. The effort is often critical in supporting the targeting process.
