Digitize Your Organization Securely with XDR

 

The pandemic has spurred companies to accelerate digital transformation, which is expected to gain momentum in the current year. CIOs across companies see digital transformation as crucial to business success and are also regularising remote work steadily. According to IDC, investments in digitization growth rates are hovering at 15.5% CAGR between 2020 and 2023.

Although cloud security services can defend against attacks in a multi-cloud environment, teams can be flooded with new security telemetry that can make threat detection impossible. However, organizations can overcome these challenges by building a digital culture in their employees, aligning business transformation to their business and security goals, and being flexible regarding threat detection and response.

One way you can fortify your cyber defence is by adopting a policy of Defend Forward. This policy entails an offensive mindset to counter cyber attacks by proactively identifying threats and implementing counterattack policies. It also entails gathering intelligence on the attackers’ tactics, techniques, and procedures and raising the company’s resiliency to make the cost of a mala fide attack very high.

Extended Detection and Response (XDR) is an approach that extends continuous threat detection and monitoring together with the automated response across an organization’s network, user personas, cloud workloads, applications, and endpoints. While most XDR platforms use tools to alert an organization about emerging threats, only a few use artificial intelligence and machine learning to enrich and correlate security telemetry.

In a survey conducted by PwC, half of the executives at US companies said they had accelerated the adoption of their AI/ML plans. While a more significant number (86%) said AI/ML would be mainstream technology in their environments in the years ahead. Furthermore, AI/ML can help an organization’s security team avoid wasting time chasing false alerts and help them focus on improving the overall security architecture.

Cybalt offers world-class managed XDR service backed by a skilled workforce and global presence to help business organizations protect their IT assets, data and applications from cyberattacks in real-time.
