ISSA National Capital Chapter March meeting topic:
Threat Rover: Go Beyond. Achieve 361o Threat Visibility of the Enterprise
by Inno Eroraha of NetSecurity® Corporation
Abstract
Neutralizing today’s advanced attacks requires an enterprise to identify its assets and to have a complete grasp of these assets. Vendors offer solutions from signature, behavior, machine learning, and artificial intelligence approaches to achieve enterprise protection and to counter the emerging threat problem. Are current technologies in this realm providing the needed 361o threat visibility, and do these technologies prevent attacks with high fidelity?
Protecting today’s assets from advanced cyber-criminal elements and from determined insider threat actors requires more than just perimeter protection or the classic “people, process, technology” paradigm. To stay ahead of these determined adversaries, solutions must go beyond and must dive deeper to detect threat activities wherever the data, information, system, or device may live. “Threat Roving” is a term we’ll use in this presentation to denote an integrated approach to neutralize cyber threats with basic primitives – threat intelligence, analytics, detection, response, prevention, investigation, and hunting – to protect against the next ransomware or other sophisticated attack and to gain situational awareness of the threat landscape. It is with acute visibility that we can predict and defuse attacks at the source.
