RANT Roundtable in partnership with Binalyze

Once upon a time, security teams worked to keep attackers outside the perimeter, but that era has passed. Today’s security leaders recognise that breaches are inevitable, and the focus is now on making sure that the adversary cannot steal important data, or prevent the business from functioning.

That, at least, is the theory – but the reality appears to be significantly different. Most businesses still spend much more on tools and technologies designed to prevent breaches from taking place than they do on systems and solutions to make sure the negative impacts of breaches are mitigated.

So why this cognitive dissonance? Why is the industry talking the assume-breach talk without walking the mitigate/recover walk? Our friends at Binalyze suggest it’s all tied up with another ongoing cybersecurity challenge: today’s tools spew out vast amounts of data without necessarily giving security teams an improved understanding, and SOC staff suffering constant alert fatigue simply aren’t able to devote enough time and attention to business resilience and post-breach recovery work.

There is a way to break this cycle, Binalyze believe. Once teams have access to real time, high quality data enriched with context – not just raw logs or alert noise – they can see what matters, faster. With this level of forensic visibility, your teams can focus on the handful of tasks that really need to get done, rather than trying to fight every fire that your XDR and EDR systems tell you might be about to break out.

Join a select group of your senior cybersecurity peers, and representatives from Binalyze, to discuss some of the ways your business can stop focusing on prevention and rebalance toward real resilience.
