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.

With organizations becoming increasingly digitally connected, a lack of visibility into their vendors’ security diligence has made exploiting these relationships a go-to tactic for cybercriminals. Fifty-four percent of publicly reported breaches in the last two years have been due to third parties, vendors, or suppliers, representing one of the greatest cybersecurity risks. Additionally, 98% of organizations have at least one vendor that’s had a breach in the last two years.

Organizations are continually searching for ways to strengthen their defenses against an ever-expanding array of cyber threats. One powerful strategy that has gained momentum in recent years is the collaboration between threat intelligence and cybersecurity automation.

Organizations are constantly faced with an array of sophisticated cyberattacks that can compromise sensitive data, disrupt operations, and tarnish their reputation. To counter these threats, cybersecurity professionals require robust and efficient tools that enable them to anticipate, detect, respond to, and mitigate attacks effectively.

Organizations in all industries are facing an ever-increasing number of cyber threats. To combat these threats, security teams need to be equipped with powerful tools and technologies that enable them to conduct efficient and effective investigations. We will explore the key features and benefits of ThreatQ Investigations and how it can help security teams stay one step ahead of cyber threats.

In a recent panel discussion led by David Neuman, Sr. Analyst with TAG Cyber, ThreatQuotient’s Dave Krasik, Sr. Director of Product Management and Jessica Bair Oppenheimer, Director, Cisco Security Strategic Alliances shared their insights on data-driven security operations. The discussion focused on the challenges and importance of prioritizing, automating and collaborating to detect and respond to threats, and was followed by a demo of the ThreatQ Platform.

ThreatQuotient and Infoblox recently hosted a webinar, where they demonstrated how the combination of DNS Intel and the use of a Threat Intelligence Platform (TIP) help to improve threat detection and response capabilities. Infoblox specializes in DNS Intelligence where their internal experts analyze, process and qualify DNS intelligence (analyzing around 70 billion DNS requests). The results of these analyses provide customers with an enriched, qualified and reliable source of information.

In the fast-evolving digital landscape, the prevalence of cyber threats has become a stark reality for businesses and individuals alike. The conventional cybersecurity measures, while essential, are often reactive and inadequate against sophisticated attacks. This is where Threat Hunting emerges as a proactive and dynamic approach to cybersecurity. In this blog, we delve into the fascinating world of Threat Hunting and explore its significance in safeguarding against cyber adversaries.

In today’s interconnected digital landscape, cyber threats have become more and more sophisticated and prevalent, posing a huge risk to individuals, organizations, and even nations. To understand and stop these evolving threats effectively, cybersecurity agencies rely on advanced tools and technologies. One such tool is Threat Intelligence Platforms (TIPs), which play a crucial role in enhancing the capabilities of these agencies.
