How to Choose Incident Alert Management Tools for Your SOC

A security operations center (SOC) is the centralization of your security processes and tooling. It can enable you to monitor for, evaluate, and respond to incidents across your organization with increased efficiency and effectiveness. By centralizing your security efforts, you create greater visibility into your systems and can better analyze and detect threats. At the core of an SOC is your SOC team.

How to Use Splunk Security Solutions to Improve Incident Response: Lessons Learned from the GE Digital Predix SOC Team

As the responsibilities of the Security Operation Center (SOC) continue to increase, SOC teams are experiencing increased demand on their time and resources. Scaling a security team with little resources and funds can prove extremely difficult, especially when the incident response team spends most of their time chasing alerts.

Between Two Alerts: Phishing Emails - Don't Get Reeled In!

Potential attackers are really good at what they do. Security analysts see this firsthand with the amount of phishing emails their organizations see daily. A newly released State of the Phish report reveals that nearly 90% of organizations dealt with business email compromise (BEC) attacks in 2019. End users reported 9.2 million suspicious phishing emails globally for the year.

Pre-RSA Twitter Poll: 3 Interesting Observations on SOC, SIEM and Cloud

In advance of the RSA Conference 2020, we wanted to get a pulse of attendees’ perceptions on a few topics, specifically challenges facing modern SOCs (security operations centers) and the value they are getting from technologies such as analytics, automation, and their SIEM tools. To get this, we fielded a series of questions to the Twitter-verse and received nearly 17,000 votes! After going through the results, we found a few interesting things…

Speed: A Security Analyst's Best Friend

In so many ways, speed is a security analyst’s best friend. From threat detection to containment to response – the faster you are, the more secure your business will be. It’s exactly why metrics like dwell time, MTTD (mean time to detect) and MTTR (mean time to respond) exist. It’s a barometer for the strength of your organization’s security, and a gauge of success for any good security team.

Accelerating Security Incident Response

It's virtually impossible for today's typical security teams and Security Operation Centers (SOCs) to quickly and accurately respond to the massive volume of threat-related events encountered across their networks and systems. The trajectory of many security operations is unsustainable and alert fatigue is a real concern. What can you and your teams do to better mitigate risk?
