"Making Sense of Security Operations Data"

This is an executive summary of the “Making Sense of Security Operations Data” webinar that took place February 21, 2024. The speakers were Dr. Jason Clark, Independent Security Researcher, and Greg Kushmerek, Principal Architect, Security Specialist, Google. The webinar was moderated by Becky Bracken, editor at Dark Reading.

Security Operations is the frontline defense against potential cyberattacks. Protecting critical enterprise digital assets from cyber threats safeguards information, ensures business continuity, and maintains trust. However, the immense volume of data, the variety of data formats, and the velocity at which data is processed present significant security challenges. Managing security data is made even more complex due to new threats constantly emerging. 

Security operations are critical to every enterprise, yet legacy SecOps approaches can no longer maintain the level of security required to meet today’s threats. In fact, a 2023 Mandiant report found that for 63% of incidents, organizations were notified of the breaches by external entities instead of being notified through internal sources. This highlights how organizations are struggling to keep their environment secure in the face of increased threat activity, lack of adequate resources, and difficulty in turning intelligence into action.
