If you’re confused about cybersecurity tools and product categories, join the club. Security market confusion is a major side effect of years of increasingly sophisticated security threats and vendor innovation designed to prevent and respond to them.

Over six in 10 security decision-makers say their teams operate with limited visibility across their environments. Why? We could easily speculate that it comes down to the tools they do or don’t use. However, two-thirds of enterprises now have tools from up to 40 different security vendors in place, and they’re still struggling for insights into the constant cycle of identities seeking access. I believe there’s a bigger-picture challenge we need to – and can – solve for.

In the fast-paced world of software development, the clash between developers and security experts could greatly benefit from some much-needed balance.

Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) is essential for enterprise organizations because it provides the tools and capabilities needed to effectively monitor, detect, respond to, and mitigate cybersecurity threats, while also supporting compliance and overall security strategy enhancement.

We won’t start yet another blog yammering about how bad the consequences of an attack are. There’s a lot on the line, including both financial and reputational losses. You get it. We get it. Cybercriminals definitely get it. Another thing cybercriminals get is automation. Attacks are up and their rise is expected to continue, in no small part due to the fact that attackers are using automation to scale their criminal enterprises.
