Priority Intelligence Requirement (PIR)

A high-priority question that stakeholders need intelligence to answer, guiding collection and analysis.

Definition

PIRs focus the intelligence program on what matters to the business, for example which threat actors target our industry and how. They are broken down into specific intelligence requirements and essential elements of information. Reviewing PIRs regularly keeps intelligence relevant.

Example

"Which ransomware groups are actively targeting healthcare providers in our region?"

Exam tip

Requirements drive collection, not the other way around.
