Can you recall exactly how good or bad your vision was following your last eye exam? Most of us can’t. A casual poll around the office showed that many people focus only on whether our eye doctor says we need an updated prescription for glasses or contacts. Often, we walk away with a new script but without a clear understanding of our overall eye health, i.e., whether our eyesight got better or worse since the previous visit.

How can my team keep track of the threat landscape? What’s the best way to manage my company’s move to cloud-based and SaaS-based solutions? And how can I keep up with compliance regulations? Is there a better way to do all this?

According to FBI Director, Christopher Wray, when it comes to ransomware disruption and prevention, “...there’s a shared responsibility, not just across government agencies but across the private sector and even the average American.” At Elastic, we’re here to help state and local governments. Ransomware attacks cost the U.S. government more than $18.9 billion in 2020 alone.

We have all heard about Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and how critical they can be for your security program , but confusion remains surrounding what KPIs are important to track and how they can be used to measure and improve the organization’s security program.

Does the SOC really need to be disrupted? In an EY survey, 59% of enterprises admitted experiencing a material or significant breach. Despite the fact that SOC spend dominates an organization’s cybersecurity budget, more than half of these SOCs were actually ineffective in protecting their organizations from attacks.

The Elastic Infosec Detections and Analytics team is responsible for building, tuning, and maintaining the security detections used to protect all Elastic systems. Within Elastic we call ourselves Customer Zero and we strive to always use the newest versions of our products.

Our mission is to create a force multiplier for SOC teams and security analysts so they can reduce the time to verdict or judgment while triaging new Insights. At Sumo Logic, we take a different approach than other SIEM solutions. We don’t just create alerts and leave the analyst to gather other artifacts to gain context. We associate and group alerts, or what we call Signals, to an Entity (IP, User, Hostname, etc...).

The move to modernize security operations to keep up with the proliferation of complex, highly ephemeral apps and infrastructure has become more daunting than ever with the added explosion of remote work and the resulting acceleration of lift-and-shift and hybrid-cloud initiatives.

​​In an age of big data and connected devices, security information and event management (SIEM) is one of the key priorities for businesses of all sizes. At a time when data is everywhere, and cyber threats are growing, security information and event management is more important than ever. This is where information management meets security as companies seek to manage their incident response, compliance requirements, security, and analytics.
