Sample Business Scenario for MITRE Network

A large corporate network uses Snort 3 as its primary intrusion detection and prevention system. In a rapidly evolving threat landscape, adoption of robust network security measures is necessary and important. Network administrators need to know if the configured policies are finding traffic of interest and if they are tracking a known attack group. For example, you may want to know if adversaries are attempting to take advantage of a weakness in your systems or applications in order to cause unanticipated behavior. The weakness in the system can be a bug, a glitch, or a design vulnerability. The applications may be websites, databases, standard services, such as Server Message Block (SMB) or Secure Shell (SSH), network device administration and management protocols or applications, such as web servers and related services.

The insights provided by the MITRE framework provides administrators with a more precise opportunity to specify protection for specific assets and protect their network from specific threat groups.
