The average organisation uses 50 different security tools to manage their security operations. The magnitude of cybercrime in the current landscape is immense and it has never been more critical for organisations to have a strong security operations centre (SOC). Security teams have seen cyberattacks escalate relentlessly, growing in frequency, speed and sophistication. Unfortunately, cyberattacks are also becoming more targeted as highly motivated malicious actors develop new ways to get to precisely the assets they’re after. Sobering statistics on the state of cybercrime validate the pressure SOC teams are feeling every day. Just a few of the challenges they face include: 1 There are 4,000 password cyberattacks every second, a tenfold increase in
There are more than 156,000 business email compromise (BEC) cyberattacks daily. Human-operated ransomware cyberattacks have increased
In the race to protect their environments, security teams have had to react quickly to new cyberthreat vectors. In doing so, many have adopted a patchwork of siloed tools to cut off potential vulnerabilities in email, endpoints, identities, cloud applications, data and even cloud workloads. As these disparate tools accumulate, the work of SOC teams can become overwhelmingly complex. The average organisation uses 50 different security tools to manage their security operations. Security analysts with too many tools are forced to context-switch between isolated tools, then manually correlate a multitude of alerts. This leads to alert fatigue and keeps analysts stuck in the weeds, making it harder for them to see the bigger picture of sophisticated cyberthreats. Given these challenges, security teams are weathering an era of high stress and mounting turnover rates. Chapter 1 4
