In the last several months the XDR acronym is being used by almost every security product manufacturer. It is one thing to say that you have it, but the hard work that goes into building the detections takes years. It is not enough to say that you have a big data platform that you can […]

Today there is no shortage of compliance requirements. There are so many, in fact, that there are billions of dollars spent every year on tools and audits. These regulations have the right goal in mind: protect companies, their intellectual property and their customers. Unfortunately, by the time these laws make it through the government process
Cybersecurity Must Evolve Beyond Compliance: Is Open XDR the Answer? Read More »
The time has come for cyber security technology to keep up with the adversaries. Now that we have seen so many successful multi-stage attacks, we need to reassess the way we correlate the signals we are seeing from all the security tools in our environments. Correlation is helpful but it doesn’t always paint the complete

Matching Resources and Business Risk with the Right Solution Gaining visibility and responding to attacks across the entire enterprise infrastructure (endpoints, servers, applications, SaaS, cloud, users, etc.) is a very tall order in today’s cybersecurity environment. Enterprises are forced to create complex security stacks consisting of SIEM, UEBA, SOAR, EDR, NDR, TIP and other tools
Samuel Jones, VP of product management, Stellar Cyber, discusses how SIEMs were supposed to be the ultimate security analytics platform. Still, many users feel they haven’t lived up to their promises. Now, extended detection and response (XDR) promises to be the ultimate platform. Should you adopt XDR? What does it mean for your SIEM? Security
The current model for cybersecurity is broken. It consists of acquiring and deploying a lot of stand-alone tools, each with its own console, to analyze logs or traffic and detect anomalies that could be threats. In this model, it’s up to each security analyst to communicate with other analysts to determine whether each tool’s individual

The industry is at a pivotal point. With the pandemic driving up work-from-home and forcing hybrid work environments as well as many applications moving to the cloud, cybersecurity professionals are challenging best practices and once-thought foundational assumptions. Is a platform with tightly integrated native capabilities the right foundation for the future security instead of siloed

Ever since offensive security testing began, we have expected that the test or simulation will find something. Even if a pen tester doesn’t uncover an issue, the best ones can always achieve success through phishing or social engineering of your organization’s employees. In the same way, Red Team-Blue Team exercises highlight the near impossibility of

Are SIEMs the foundation to build on or are they empty promises? With more complex cyberattacks on the rise, and with COVID-19 adding additional challenges to protecting the enterprise, is the SIEM the go-forward core of a next-gen security operations center (SOC), or is it time to consider new ideas? We discuss daily the cybersecurity

Its time, again, to change the conversation in cybersecurity. It’s neither data-driven nor AI-driven cybersecurity, which you might have heard before – it’s both and more, much more. It is correlation-driven cybersecurity. It is about correlations of many detections, from very basic like NGFW to very advanced like AI-based EDR, from various data sources in
