About this listen
This narrated Insight walks through the Cyber Kill Chain (CKC) and broader cyber attack lifecycle models as practical tools for real-world defenders. You’ll hear how CKC breaks an intrusion into recognizable stages, from reconnaissance to actions on objectives, and how that gives analysts and engineers a common storyline for messy, real-world incidents. The audio stays vendor-neutral and plain-language, focusing on how to connect alerts, logs, and behaviors to a clear sense of “where in the attacker’s journey are we right now?”
You’ll also explore everyday use cases, from tuning detections and building playbooks to running more realistic tabletops and making smarter architecture and budget decisions. Along the way, the episode examines benefits, trade-offs, and common failure modes, like treating the Cyber Kill Chain as a slideware checkbox instead of an operational lens. This narration is developed from the Tuesday “Insights” feature in Bare Metal Cyber Magazine, giving you a concise, audio-first way to absorb the full breakdown.
