Organizations are Struggling to Keep Up

7

8

Reliance on Silver Bullet Technologies

• A single point product won’t identify all threats

• Most frequent Silver Bullet monitoring technologies: – IDP / IPS

– Anomaly detection (on the rise)

• Individual technologies lack a comprehensive vantage point to detect today’s threats.

32%Average % of incidents detected by IDP / IPS technologies

9

Incomplete Enterprise Coverage

• Companies fail to effectively assess (and update) the scope of their Enterprise

• Enterprise technology trends further challenge scope– Mobile

– Cloud

– BYOD

10

Underestimate SIEM Complexity

• Companies frequently underestimate effort and cost to implement– Technical architecture frequently

under scoped

– Time to implement can take year+

• Struggle to sustain capability– Turnover of “the SIEM expert”

– Focus / Expertise Required 35%Too many false positive responses

72%Collect 1TB of security data or more on a monthly basis

11

Lack of Sufficient Staff / ExpertiseIncreasing Sophistication ≠ More Resources

“We’re at 100% employment in IT security”

– Chief Security Officer

Health Care Organization

83%of enterprise organizations say it’s extremely difficult or somewhat difficult to recruit/hire security professionals

12

Can’t Keep up with Evolving Threats

• Detection program must be evolve as threats evolves– Analyst training / awareness

– SIEM tuning

– Detection methods

– Response tactics

• Varied tactics to keep up with threats: – Open source

– Working groups (ISACs)

– Commercial

28%Sophisticated security events have become too hard to detect for us

35%Do not use external threat intelligence for security analytics
