Beyond IoCs: CTM360 Introduces Next-Gen Cyber Threat Intelligence at Big SASIG 2026

CTM360, a Bahrain-based preemptive cybersecurity company, heads to the Big SASIG 2026 Event as a Gold Sponsor, where it will showcase a next-generation approach to Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI).

Big SASIG takes place on Wednesday 9 September in London, bringing together a curated audience of CISOs, senior security leaders, and key decision-makers in an environment designed to encourage meaningful conversations and valuable connections.

At the event, CTM360 will highlight the need for organizations to move beyond traditional threat intelligence models and adopt a next-generation Cyber Threat Intelligence approach built around Indicators of Exposure (IoEs), Indicators of Warning (IoWs), and Indicators of Attack (IoAs).

Traditional Cyber Threat Intelligence has largely been built around Indicators of Compromise (IoCs), which help organizations understand artifacts associated with previously observed attacks. However, these artifacts often lack direct organizational context, creating noise for security teams.

As Mirza Asrar Baig, CEO & Founder of CTM360, explains:

“IoCs are about Someone Else and Somewhere Else; IoE, IoW, and IoA are about You and Now. That’s why the threat intelligence industry needs to move beyond IoCs to a next-generation CTI model based on IoEs, IoWs, and IoAs.”

Attendees are invited to visit the CTM360 booth to explore these three layers of next-generation CTI:

• Indicators of Exposure (IoEs): What assets, weaknesses, external vulnerabilities, or exposures can attackers discover and potentially exploit?
• Indicators of Warning (IoWs): What are the early signs of an attack infrastructure that has not yet been executed? 
• Indicators of Attack (IoAs): What infrastructure, campaigns, or threat activity is actively targeting the organization?

The discussion will also cover how AI is being applied across the CTM360 platform to address the scale and complexity of the evolving threat landscape.

During the event, all attendees are invited to join CTM360’s thought leadership workshop, “Next-Gen CTI: Seeing Your IoE, IoW & IoA Before They Become IoCs,” conducted by Mirza Asrar Baig from 11:00 AM to 11:30 AM.

CTM360’s recent recognition in the 2026 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Cyber Threat Intelligence marks a defining moment in the company’s global growth journey. As CTM360 continues to expand its international presence, the company is preparing for its next milestones by participating in IndoSec 2026, taking place on 15–16 September 2026, followed by the Gartner Security & Risk Management Summit 2026, to be held in London, UK, from 22–24 September 2026.
