Security | Threat Detection | Cyberattacks | DevSecOps | Compliance

There’s an old expression: When you’re a hammer, everything looks like a nail. Therefore, is it right for a security company such as Devo to consider all data security data? Let’s examine that concept. Recently I participated in a panel discussion at the GDS Security Insight Summit Europe with my colleague Dean Robertson who heads solution engineering for Devo in EMEA.

Threat hunting is emerging as a must-have addition to cybersecurity strategies. By enabling organizations to find and mitigate threats before they ever touch their networks or systems, threat hunting provides the basis for a more proactive security posture – and one that delivers higher ROI on security tools and processes. How can businesses actually add threat hunting to their security arsenals? That’s where solutions like Sumo Logic's Cloud SIEM come in.

Devo recently published a new research report Beyond Cloud Adoption: How to Embrace the Cloud for Security and Business Benefits, based on a survey conducted by Enterprise Strategy Group (ESG). ESG surveyed 500 IT and security professionals working in the security operations center (SOC) chain of command at organizations with more than 1,000 employees in North America and Western Europe. The survey took place in the first quarter of 2021. This is the first in a series of posts about the report.

SIEMs have been around for decades, designed to replace manual log correlation to identify suspicious network activity by normalizing alerts across multiple technology vendors. SIEMs correlate massive amounts of data from the sensor grid (your internal security solutions, mission-critical applications and IT infrastructure). As organizations are looking at ways to mine through SIEM data to find threats and breaches, they are bringing in threat intelligence feeds to help.

A cyberattack is expected to occur every 11 seconds in 2021 — nearly double the frequency just a year earlier. These incidents often involve breaches of sensitive proprietary information and cost the organizations involved millions of dollars. Despite all the resources being devoted to improving cybersecurity, new threats continue to arise faster than defense capabilities.

The Sumo Logic team is pleased to introduce the general availability of Sumo Logic Cloud SIEM powered by AWS. This joint solution will empower CIOs, CISOs, security and IT leaders to solve modern and legacy security operations use cases for Enterprises of all sizes and maturity with deep and contextualized insights to reduce the time to detect and respond to threats.

I’m pleased to announce that Sumo Logic has finalized its acquisition of DFLabs S.p.A., a provider of security orchestration, automation and response (SOAR) software.

Here’s the story of an information security engineer whose organization urgently needed new security log management stack that would enable him and his peers to not only survive but really thrive. In this Log’s Honest Truth podcast, presented in partnership with ITSP Magazine, Julian Waits, GM of the Devo cyber business unit & public sector, discusses the confessions of “Mr. B,” an information security engineer. Mr.
