When it comes to security teams, many people may assume that these specialists have some natural ability or extra mental strength for dealing with challenges. After all, these individuals are responsible for preventing cyberattacks and dealing with catastrophic incidents when they occur; they must always be on and ready.
Professionals working in cyber threat intelligence (CTI) overwhelmingly enjoy their jobs; over 66%, according to a limited survey of CTI professionals. They enjoy playing detective, investigator, researcher, analyzer, and communicator. What do they not love about the job? Chasing down bits and pieces of information manually through tons of different interfaces. Wrangling a time-intensive monstrosity of various files, web pages, and inconsistent formats, then merging them (ungracefully).
The threat landscape is constantly changing, and now more than ever, technology plays a significant role in helping security teams stay ahead of the curve. With so many new tools emerging on the market every year, it can be challenging to determine what solutions will work best for you or if you even need any at all.
In our third episode, we speak with Maxime Lamothe-Brassard — CEO and founder of LimaCharlie, a security infrastructure as a service tool that gives security teams full control over how they manage their security infrastructure. Maxime’s unique perspective comes from a career in security, including Canada’s NSA, Arc4dia, and the early days of CrowdStrike and Google Chronicle.
