Cyber Security Final Year Topic: Design and Evaluation of Threat Intelligence Source Provenance

This Cyber Security final year project investigates keeping public indicator context and provenance visible during triage using authorised, synthetic or consented evidence within a defined defensive study.

Why choose this project topic?

A focused investigation of keeping public indicator context and provenance visible during triage makes security assumptions visible and testable. The project can use provenance retention, conflict visibility and duplicate accuracy to explain both the value of the proposed control and the situations where it remains insufficient.

How effectively does threat intelligence source provenance address keeping public indicator context and provenance visible during triage, assessed through provenance retention, conflict visibility and duplicate accuracy?

Agree the owned test environment, threat assumptions and assessment criteria with your supervisor; keep the scope focused on keeping public indicator context and provenance visible during triage.

Proposed project objectives

  1. 01Define the assets, trust boundaries and evidence relevant to keeping public indicator context and provenance visible during triage.
  2. 02Use licensed public sample indicators without contacting destinations, record sources and dates and test deduplication without erasing conflicting assessments.
  3. 03Evaluate provenance retention, conflict visibility and duplicate accuracy and document residual limitations.

A suggested research approach

Use licensed public sample indicators without contacting destinations, record sources and dates and test deduplication without erasing conflicting assessments. Agree the authorisation and data-handling boundaries before any collection. Record the baseline, expected outcomes and reproducible test conditions, then analyse provenance retention, conflict visibility and duplicate accuracy without treating a successful demonstration as proof of complete protection.

What you will need

  • Licensed indicator sample
  • Source metadata schema
  • Offline triage prototype

Keep your project scope clear

An indicator is not proof of malicious activity and must not be used to accuse named organisations.
