In episode 152 of Cybersecurity Where You Are, Sean Atkinson is joined by Cliff Moten, Manager, Cybersecurity Solutions Engineering at the Center for Internet Security® (CIS®); and Richard Vargas, Security Operations Center Manager at CIS. Together, they discuss how the 24x7x365 CIS Security Operations Center (SOC) and CIS Managed Detection and Response™ (CIS MDR™) work together to accelerate response time while enriching telemetry. Here are some highlights from our episode:
- 01:40. Demystifying SOCs and MDR as cybersecurity concepts
- 02:52. How the CIS SOC works to provide information, context, and next steps for an event
- 05:04. Artificial intelligence and automation as ways to accelerate response time
- 10:20. Real-world instances where a fast response time made a difference
- 13:10. What it means to support underfunded organizations with the resources they need
- 17:22. The role of contextual cyber threat intelligence in accelerating response times
- 19:01. The value of security orchestration, automation, and response (SOAR) in helping defenders move quickly
- 27:33. Lessons that organizations can use to cut down on their incident response times
