This guide argues that modern cybersecurity must shift from reacting to alerts toward proactively focusing on adversaries, their motivations, tools, and repeatable tactics. It explains how traditional SIEMs provide limited, victim-centered visibility, while XDR and threat intelligence platforms help correlate telemetry with global intelligence to detect and predict attacker behavior. The report highlights challenges such as talent shortages, tool overload, and information silos, which slow response. It introduces attack flow diagrams as a way to map sequences of adversary actions, enabling teams to anticipate next steps, prioritize defenses, and accelerate mitigation. Anomali’s platform is presented as supporting this adversary-focused approach through intelligence-driven detection, automa
