Conclusion<br />
Attribution is an important component of full-spectrum cyber operations, and as attribution using purely<br />
technical methods becomes more difficult, we should improve our ability to use PAI to further the<br />
objectives of advanced attribution. While there is no single, silver-bullet solution for ending malicious<br />
cyber activity, by making life more difficult for malicious actors, we can more easily disrupt and deter the<br />
threats they pose. Just as important, as we learn the names of malicious hackers around the world and<br />
increase what we know about them, we shine a light into cyberspace that makes it easier to parse the<br />
signal from the noise. Knowing who poses the threat, where they’re attacking from, what they intend to<br />
do, and the extent of their capabilities can boost our defenses and countermeasures immediately, and in<br />
the long run, inform the framework we need to build to address a range of threats.<br />
