Security | Threat Detection | Cyberattacks | DevSecOps | Compliance

A unified approach for security, monitoring, and forensics in containerized and microservice environments.

Companies have responded to cyber attacks with various tools, such as anti-virus, malware, and other endpoint protection, intrusion detection and prevention systems, and others. But despite these additions, data breaches have been increasing steadily over the past five years.

Your organization's security posture is only as strong as your least secure - or least scrupulous - employee. All it takes is an IT professional forgetting to apply a patch, a manager sending sensitive data to the wrong person, or an angry systems administrator selling your intellectual property to set your business back millions of dollars.

Recent cyberattacks have made it clear that organizations of all sizes need to focus on a holistic and cohesive security strategy. Security operations centers (SOCs) have become a focal point in this effort, consolidating the right people, processes and technology to mitigate and remediate attacks.

To effectively bolster enterprise defenses against increasingly novel attack mechanisms and intrusion methods, an organization's IT security must be fluid, dynamic, and adaptable - both in protecting disparate IT environments as well as providing ongoing monitoring and assessment against the evolving threat landscape.

Current IT security tools and mindsets are no longer adequate to meet the scope and complexity of today's threats. Internet security has evolved over the last ten years but advanced persistent threats and the sophistication of the malware have fundamentally changed the way security teams must think about these new threats and the tools used for detective controls.

According to Cisco's 2015 Annual Security Report, only four in ten IT departments have a coordinated patching strategy in place. The ramifications of this are evident in the rising frequency of enterprise data breaches year-on-year. You've certainly heard it before, but it's worth repeating again: unpatched and out-of-date systems are a leading cause of security incidents.

Traditional security providers lack capabilities to address today's critical use cases. This eBook discusses seven of these gaps and how you can address them.
