FEATURES, INSIGHTS // Management & Strategy
Knowing that threat intelligence is readily available and proving its worth is one thing, understanding how to use it within your security operations program is quite another.
When intelligence becomes a capability and not just subscriptions to feeds, we can gain the full value of intelligence as the foundation to security operations.
Today’s dynamic threatscape requires security professionals to adjust to an ever-expanding attack surface.
I have noticed some common threads that run through both good and bad advice, particularly in the security field.
It’s amazing how foundational security principles, consistently implemented, can help defeat the craftiest attack vector.
As organizations’ visibility is limited to what their threat intelligence vendors cover, by definition they will never have full visibility.
Remote workers must take additional responsibility for keeping data safe from attacks, but it is the role of the company to provide training, awareness and tools to make this happen.
To gather the data and intelligence you need to fully detect and respond to threats, you need the ability to scale up and down the pyramid.
By understanding the latest threat trends, security teams can take measures to ensure that their security strategies, including the identification and tracking of new IOCs, are being correctly updated.
The risk of company employees walking away with sensitive data or selling their access credentials has never been greater now that a record number of individuals have been laid off.
