The Cyber Threat Alliance (CTA) is an independent, non-profit membership organization focused on cybersecurity providers. We currently have 34 private-sector members split across three tiers, and are actively growing our membership to include cybersecurity companies from around the world focused on every element of the ecosystem.

In addition, we are building diverse partnerships with Computer Emergency Response Teams (CERTs), Information Sharing and Analysis Organizations (ISACs), peer non-profits, and other organizations that are not eligible for CTA membership. Visit our Partnerships page to learn more.
