Enterprises missed 60% of incidents because their existing tools produced no high-confidence alerts, according to Kaspersky's 2025 compromise-assessment findings. An indicator of compromise is useful, but static matching alone won't reliably reveal an attacker who has learned how to blend into normal activity. That distinction matters to every SOC using a SIEM, EDR, or XDR platform. An IOC can connect a...
A high-fidelity alert lands in the queue. An endpoint looks compromised, a cloud workload is beaconing, and someone on the bridge says, “Isolate it now.” That's the moment evidence preservation usually breaks. A rushed reboot kills volatile data. A containment script rotates logs. An analyst exports files without hashing them. The incident gets contained, but the proof of what happened...
In 2024, ransomware was publicly disclosed in more than 5,600 attacks worldwide, with over 2,600 victims in the United States alone. The same reporting says the FBI's 2024 IC3 report logged 3,156 ransomware complaints, an 11.7% increase from the prior year, which is a useful reminder that this isn't a niche malware problem. It's a persistent operational risk that keeps...
Your cloud footprint probably grew faster than your monitoring program did. That's the normal path. A team starts with one cloud account, one logging service, and a few dashboards. Then come managed databases, containers, serverless functions, SaaS integrations, new identities, and temporary workloads that appear and disappear before anyone documents them. Security ends up with a pile of logs, a backlog...
