Shawn Waldman, CEO of SecureCyber, takes on three questions shaping modern security operations. We asked:
- What separates a SOC that is truly proactive from one that is mostly reacting to alerts?
- What mistakes do organizations commonly make during incident containment that can make the eventual investigation more difficult?
- With attackers increasingly using automation and AI, how should MSSPs evolve their own defensive operations to keep pace?
