Security | Threat Detection | Cyberattacks | DevSecOps | Compliance

Three LevelBlue security experts put their investigative skills to the test in the SentinelOne Threat Hunting competition, with Jodie McDonald earning the top spot in EMEA and advancing to the Grand Final at OneCon. Threat hunting requires more than knowing your way around a security platform. It takes curiosity, analytical thinking, and the discipline to follow the evidence, even when it leads somewhere unexpected.

Security teams face a demanding balancing act: keeping pace with evolving threats, managing complex environments, and demonstrating how their investments reduce risk. At LevelBlue, helping organizations meet those challenges is central to our work. That commitment is reflected in Frost & Sullivan’s recognition of LevelBlue as its 2026 Global Company of the Year in Managed Security Services.

This year, the United States of America celebrated their 250th birthday, but Cybersecurity Awareness Month is already looking toward the future with the goal of securing the next 250 years together. It’s an ambitious theme that leads us all to wonder, “what does it actually take to build security that lasts?” The Cybersecurity & Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) 2026 Cybersecurity Awareness Month guidance begins with four familiar practices.

Cybersecurity programs have become increasingly specialized and become a rather expansive enterprise responsibility. Protecting a modern organization can involve identity, endpoints, networks, applications and APIs, cloud infrastructure, data, threat intelligence, detection and response, governance, risk and compliance (GRC), incident response, and cyber resilience. Each discipline brings specialized technologies, processes, and expertise to the security program.

Cybersecurity research, threat intel, and novel findings produce no shortage of information. Every day brings new vulnerabilities, malware campaigns, proof-of-concept exploits, threat reports, headlines, and predictions about what comes next. But what has proven difficult is sorting through the noise to determine what's worth following. That's a big part of my role as Manager of the SpiderLabs Communications team at LevelBlue.
