Recently, the conversation in industrial cybersecurity has shifted from detection to response. The onset of faster-moving and easier to scale attacks driven by AI makes detection significantly more difficult, and faced with limited resources, it’s easy to understand why many are embracing the mantra of “it’s not if, but when you’re attacked” and allocating more time and money to their response capabilities.
However, this episode's guest offers some insight on the flaws of downplaying the detection element of cybersecurity. Chris Nyhuis is the Co-Founder and CEO of Vigilant. Watch/listen as he offers perspective on:
- Establishing priorities and applying them to tactics like segmentation when addressing the expanding threat landscape.
- What data flow can tell you about soft spots on your network.
- Why detection is so critical in not only developing strategies for your response, but in understanding the right ways to respond.
- How the right detection tools can help minimize the impacts of breaches that often result from dwelling, or living-off-the-land attacks.
- And, or course, the best ways to leverage AI in developing and implementing cybersecurity strategies.
