The cybersecurity industry has an effectiveness problem. New technologies, vendors, and solutions emerge every year—yet, we still see headlines filled with high-profile breaches. Many attacks occur – not because a product failed to raise an alert – they fail because the alert was missed or was not actioned on. To prevent these attacks, the industry needs to adopt a new approach by focusing on security operations.
