Threat intelligence is one of the most potent weapons we have against digital hazards. Yet, many organizations remain uncertain about what it entails, how to apply it effectively, and what threat intelligence solution to choose.

A bait-and-switch scam is a practice in which a vendor lures in a buyer with a tempting offer for a great product that the vendor does not intend to sell. This usually means advertising a too-good-to-be-true deal which, when the buyer is “baited,” is then “switched” out for a different offer.

The necessity of a SIEM for organizations and their security teams has evolved dramatically over time. It has gone from edge use cases and compliance to the current preferred form of threat detection, hunting, and incident response. As the use cases have changed, so has the architecture. As a result, organizations that have been running their SIEM on-premises are now looking for modern architectures to reduce the workload on their analysts. The simple choice: SaaS, of course.
