FEATURES, INSIGHTS // Incident Response
The goal of security automation is to accelerate detection and response, but you’ll waste a lot of time if you try to eat the elephant all at once.
With an approach that is data-driven and flexible, you can get as simple or as advanced as the detection and response demands.
Organizations can strengthen their security posture by getting detailed information on current attack techniques and keeping their employees’ cyber hygiene training up to date.
As automation continues to evolve, a new approach to accelerate detection and response is emerging based on data and business logic to automatically trigger simple actions that can be standalone or be chained together.
Organizations need to look beyond preventive measures when it comes to dealing with today’s ransomware threats and invest in ransomware response, which improves their ability to prepare and quickly recover endpoints from ransomware attacks.
As threat actors continue to evolve their TTPs to take advantage of crises and outbreaks, the intelligence sources and information sharing mechanisms available to help will become even more important.
Many think open source intelligence is just another name for better googling. They are wrong. Good open source and threat intelligence are derived from three core capabilities.
Vendor agnostic technology, married with actionable, globally-sourced, and continually evolving intelligence, augmented by humans, is needed to defend our enterprises.
There are areas where governments can learn from the private sector and vice-versa, which will help both sides adapt more quickly and effectively to a continuously evolving threat environment.
I foresee a convergence of the tooling for telemetry aggregation, threat detection, managed services and remediation as a key milestone in the evolution of the modern SOC.
