Ransomware attacks are occurring at an increasingly staggering pace. The tactics for deploying it are evolving at an equally rapid pace. Ransomware-as-a-service providers on the dark web are using ML to create zero-day strains, and traditional security technologies are struggling to keep up. What if the ransomware attack was only a diversion from the attacker’s

Security Event and Information Management platforms (SIEMs) collect data from security logs and in doing so are supposed to identify blind spots, reduce noise and alert fatigue, and simplify detection and response to complex cyberattacks. However, SIEMs have not lived up to these promises. Now, the new idea is XDR – what are its advantages,
