Security Operations On the Backfoot: How Poor Tooling Is Taking Its Toll On Security Analysts

Threat actors can and regularly do sneak into corporate networks today with stolen, phished or cracked credentials, or by exploiting unpatched vulnerabilities—of which there are many to choose from. This means CISOs and CEOs must accept that their organisation will be breached, or might already have been. The key is finding those attackers before they have a chance to cause serious damage.

This is where the Security Operations Center (SOC) comes into its own. The function offers a centralised, always-on hub for monitoring, detecting and responding to cyber-threats. In theory, it should be an effective way to manage the growing risks associated with threat activity. In reality, many teams are struggling to provide the support CISOs expect of them and are suffering as a result not just at work, but also in their private lives.
