Balancing Standardization & Customization: Tailoring Security Monitoring to Your Unique Environment
So you’ve gone ahead and ingested every log you can think of and built a plethora of detections in line with frameworks and best practices. You may have even dabbled into custom alerts built from your own internal assessments and findings. Or maybe it’s the opposite; you’re still early in your journey toward security maturity or logging new or custom applications without much guidance. It can be hard to feel truly comfortable with your environment’s security in both situations. Standards are good but can be too noisy and restrictive in some places and too quiet or permissive in others. Custom approaches can feel bespoke, but it is hard to know how well it will hold up to the rigors of a true threat.
In working with numerous organizations varying in size, sector, and security maturity, I have found a recurring theme. Most organizations tend to take the quirks in their environments and business operations for granted, while thinking the security challenges they face are more personal, or don't apply to them. We will show how an environment can be tailored to fit any organization without abandoning the design principles of good security.
