ISMG’s Virtual Roundtables focus on specific challenges being faced by information security executives in today’s cybersecurity landscape. Moderated by one of ISMG’s Executive Editors and a guest industry expert, Virtual Roundtables give cybersecurity professionals the opportunity to discuss threats and controls with a handful of market leaders in an informal and online setting, from which you will emerge with new ideas and solutions you can immediately put to work to improve your own organization’s defensive posture.
Topic
The Right Roles for SIEM and EDR
Cybersecurity leaders know that if they haven’t already, they need to get into the incident response and threat hunting business with a Security Operations Center. Still, many are uncertain about how to do so with little risk, high efficiency and with confidence in a safer future for the IT stack. In particular, the wisdom of “just get a SIEM” rings hollow and the current wave of hype around EDR is leading to cognitive dissonance.
What are the complementary uses of SIEM and EDR technologies? What are the unique use cases for each, and how can they coexist without either being thrown out or used incorrectly? Ultimately, what is an autonomous SOC?
Please join ISMG’s Tom Field for an exclusive Virtual Roundtable that will draw from the experiences of the attendees, offering thoughts on the essential components of a successful strategy to address complementary roles for SIEM and EDR and create a truly autonomous SOC.
Discussion topics will include:
- What are the qualities of an autonomous SOC?
- What are the unique use cases both for SIEM and EDR?
- How can they be optimized in a complementary fashion?
- What role does Security Orchestration, Automation and Response play?
Joining Tom to provide expert insight and case studies is Sam Curry, Chief Security Officer at Cybereason.
