How using Cloud SIEM dashboards and metrics for daily standups improves SOC efficiency

When we talk about emerging technologies and digitization, we often forget that while innovators work to bring the best solutions to market, cybersecurity gurus are concurrently working to identify loopholes and vulnerabilities in these new systems. Gone are the days when cyber attacks were monthly news; instead, they happen almost daily.

Beyond the build: Why runtime security is critical for container protection

Containers and microservices have changed the game: They allow organizations to ship apps faster and make better use of hardware. They encourage modular software design. And containers help teams embrace the cloud-native paradigms of scalability, mobility, and resilience. It’s safe to say that containers have shaken things up.

Threat Hunting vs Incident Response for Cyber Resilience

Protecting data and protecting business continuity are both similar and different. In a data driven world, your mission as a security analyst is to prevent threat actors from gaining unauthorized access to sensitive data and systems. Simultaneously, you also need to investigate incidents rapidly, ensuring that critical services experience as little downtime as possible.

Automate common security tasks and stay ahead of threats with Datadog Workflows and Cloud SIEM

Detecting and remediating security threats is a constantly evolving concern for modern DevSecOps and security operations center (SOC) teams. Moreover, manually investigating and responding to vulnerabilities and threats is time-consuming, laborious, and knowledge-intensive.

geeks+gurus: Get real about cyber resilience

Join our geeks+gurus of Sumo Logic for an interactive conversation on the current state of cybersecurity, Demonstrating value is vital. In this 25-minute conversation, Bob Layton and Chas Clawson will Get Real about Cyber Resilience. With uncertainty around a potential recession and IT budgets flattening, security teams are learning how to do more with less. Cyber attacks are becoming more complex and destructive, however, more pressure is being put on security leaders to be more efficient with their spending and to make the case for these critical investments.

Threat Detection and Response: 5 Log Management Best Practices

In a world where attackers can move fast, security teams need to move faster. According to SANS research from 2022, adversaries can perform intrusion actions within a five-hour window. While analysts need the Millennium Falcon of security technologies that enable threat detection and response in under twelve parsecs, increasingly complex IT environments make the 1-10-60 Framework feel unachievable.

Demystifying Elastic Security for Cloud and its capabilities

It's no surprise that organizations are moving to the cloud to innovate — to meet the growing demands of their customers and digital transformation. Organizations want to build applications that are fast and scalable. They want to make use of the latest cloud-native capabilities like containers, orchestrators, microservices, APIs, and declarative infrastructure. However, this also means security in the cloud cannot be an afterthought.

What is XDR? Is the security impact real or hyped?

With so many overlapping and self-serving definitions of XDR (Extended Detection and Response), embracing the innovations in technology first require that we parse the alphabet soup. We agree with several industry analysts covering the space that XDR is a vendor push with no real customer demand, but the problem spaces within XDR are of significant customer interest. Consensus has emerged on a few XDR elements such as: cloud-native/SaaS, improved detection, and improved response.
