I- 2020: The year of modern cybersecurity
What role will security analytics take? Analytics tools seem to be a great solution to help protect against data breaches.
How to anticipate data breaches?
Security analytics is a process that consists of analyzing raw security data to improve security at the enterprise level. It can be preemptive and actionable to anticipate breaches. It uses data collection, aggregation and analysis tools to monitor and detect threats. The more difficult part of security analytics is finding the active threats and identifying an appropriate response.
Data can come from many sources including; operating systems and event logs, routers, firewalls, and viruses, to name a few. Analysis of this data can help create appropriate algorithms to anticipate data breaches. The analysis aggregates data from solutions such as Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) to collect real-time data and create correlations, Identity Access Management (IAM) to allow user connection, Privileged Access Management (PAM) to identify which users can access the software, as well as Customer Relationship Management (CRM) and Data Loss Prevention (DLP).
With Machine Learning, security analytics are possible. It allows real-time data and analysis and is playing an important role in modern cybersecurity.
II- How can your organization benefit from security analytics?
- Provide proactive security: Enable the detection of attacks or security incidents in real-time. Identify breaches faster.
- Compliance: Governement or industry sector regulations can assist in standardizing data monitoring and analysis.
Improve forensics capabilities: Quickly identify where the network breach is, as well as what data has been lost, or compromised. All of this information can help to improve your cybersecurity.
