The Maturity Gap: The Next Frontier in Threat Intelligence

This article summarizes insights from Recorded Future’s 2025 State of Threat Intelligence, noting that while 49% of enterprises rate themselves as advanced and 87% expect significant improvement, many struggle with poor tool integration, limited data trust, information overload, and lack of contextual relevance. It defines predictive and autonomous maturity as continuous, integrated, and automated intelligence workflows that inform real-time decisions and feed SIEM/SOAR/EDR, and recommends steps to close the gap: standardize and unify data sources, automate enrichment and correlation, integrate with core systems, leverage AI, continuously measure progress, and translate threats into clear business impact using the Threat Intelligence Maturity Assessment.
