Earlier this year, we introduced the LimaCharlie SecOps Cloud Platform (SCP). The SCP is a unified platform for modern cybersecurity operations. Similar to what the public cloud did for IT, the SCP offers security teams core cybersecurity capabilities and infrastructure: on-demand, pay-per-use, and API-first. In short, the SCP is a new paradigm for cybersecurity. It’s a game-changer for enterprise security teams and cybersecurity solutions builders.

Do you aspire to become a standout in the SOC world? To excel, you must consistently cultivate both your technical hard skills and non-technical soft skills. No specific career path is the golden ticket; each individual’s journey to SOC stardom is a blend of conventional education and hands-on training, seasoned with vital real-world experience. A purpose-built SOC analyst home lab is one proven self-guided learning tool to sharpen your technical know-how.

Security professionals are burning out, and they often aren’t getting enough support from their higher-ups. In fact, Devo and Wakefield Research have found that 45% of IT professionals surveyed felt that their leaders haven’t proactively responded to employee burnout, and 59% wish their leaders would offer additional training, mentorship, and development. Responsibility for tackling this issue lies with InfoSec leaders and their organizations.

Despite concerns of a global recession, a new IDC Worldwide Spending Guide forecasts cybersecurity investments will reach $219 billion in 2023, an increase of 12.1%. No doubt, the ongoing rise in cyberattacks and an increase in focus by boards and the C-suite on mitigating risk and building resilience are behind the steadfast commitment to invest in security solutions and services.
