The Race to Support Overwhelmed Security Teams With XDR and SOC Modernization
Research Objectives
Security operations grow more difficult each year due to issues like the persistent threat landscape, a growing attack surface, and the volume and complexity of security alerts. Additionally, many SOC teams remain understaffed and lack advanced security operations skills. To address these challenges, CISOs are open to evaluating new technologies in areas like advanced analytics for threat detection and process automation for incident response.
Additionally, many organizations are considering security operations tools consolidation. These efforts will likely lead to the proliferation of security operations and analytics platform architecture (SOAPA) strategies. SOC technology consolidation and integration efforts are aimed at improving security efficacy, reducing operational overhead, and building a SOC technology architecture that can keep up with the pace and scale of hybrid IT.
