SecBI, the cyber threat management company, has extended its threat detection solution with automated response, an ingredient that has supposedly been missing from the security, orchestration, automated response (SOAR) market, the company says. Designed for security operations centres (SOC) and managed security service providers (MSSPs), the solution offers detection, investigation and now automated response for threat detection. More specifically, through the solution, users are able to do full scope detection of suspicious activity, improve analysis of threats, couple detection with response to threats, and automatically deliver information from response mechanisms...

New SOAR (Security Orchestration, Automation and Response) solutions are automating cybersecurity in the interest of saving companies time and money. But are they succeeding? Cybersecurity expert Arie “Fredy” Fred takes a closer look....

There’s an old joke that goes, “What’s worse than discovering a worm in your apple? Discovering half a worm in your apple…” Security Operations (SecOps) has more than its fair share of half-eaten worms, and that’s a big problem. The SecOps teams discovers an infected endpoint, for example, and remediates the problem. However, they’ve only caught part of the broader infection. The undetected half of the attack can continue on its mission of destruction without anyone being the wiser....

"We use a log-based approach using data from the existing devices to create full scope visibility," Fred said. This approach avoids the problems created by encrypted communications from the malware, which some types of malware detection systems can't catch.”...

This year’s RSA Conference is a key venue for companies to showcase their new cybersecurity products. Here are some of the more interesting tools to check out....

What if Sherlock Holmes was a robot?  This question is obviously designed to provoke thoughts on how the integration of automation and investigation could yield some interesting results.  Appropriately, it is being used as the tag line for SecBI’s current marketing campaign.  SecBI’s Autonomous Investigation technology provides automated detection and investigation that can drastically reduce your security teams’ response times for comprehensive remediation....

SecBI is taking on DarkTrace, Vectra Networks and other vendors in automated cyberthreat detection and investigation with its two main channel streams. The company delivers automated threat detection and investigation for security operations centers (SOCs) and MSSPs. Doron Davidson, its co-founder, and vice president of business development and customer success...

2019 will deliver a slew of more stealthy, advanced cyberattacks with sophisticated methods of penetration and distribution (command-and-control). No doubt automated threat detection and investigation will become a ‘must-have’ for every enterprise and organization in one form or another. Here are the top ten cyber predictions by one of the industry’s experts....

Biometric hacking, an increase in phishing attacks and sophisticated use of artificial intelligence (AI) are among the top cyber security threats to be expected in 2019, as attackers stop at nothing to steal identities and evade detection through new techniques....

"AI will power cyberattacks more and more.  In fact, it is reasonable to assume that armies of AI hackers will have greater, faster penetration with more automation. Cyberdefense must look to AI for the faster analytics needed to find malicious activities. With machine learning and AI-driven response, security teams can automate triage and prioritization while reducing false positives by up to 91%. Enterprises will seek innovative solutions that enable them to stay ahead of the next unknown threat. They can’t simply look at what they have and just upgrade..." Gilad Peleg, CEO, SecBI....
