Hosted by Mark Ehr, Senior Consulting Analyst for 451 Research Advisors and Igor Mezic, Chief Scientist and CTO for MixMode on Tuesday, November 1st at 1pm EST / 10am PST, they will discuss why security analytics needs to include advanced Third-Wave AI, which autonomously learns normal behavior and adapts to constantly changing network environments, to address the next generation of cyberthreats and increase SOC productivity.
The SEC Is Proposing New Cybersecurity Rules That May Put Your Company at Risk for Fines and Penalties. Are you prepared?
Earlier this year, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) announced new, stronger proposed regulations related to cybersecurity for public companies.
U.S. Cities Relying on Legacy Cybersecurity Plagued By False Positives and Negatives
Cybersecurity teams working in municipal settings face a constant struggle — protecting vital public network infrastructure with limited resources. The situation can reach a breaking point when these teams become overwhelmed managing false positive and negative flags triggered by legacy cybersecurity solutions.
451 Research Finds Self-Learning Technology to Address Cybersecurity Blind Spots and Reduce Analyst Burnout
In the report, 451 Research explains why security analytics needs to include advanced Third-Wave AI, which autonomously learns normal behavior and adapts to constantly changing network environments, to address the next generation of cyberthreats and increase SOC productivity.
Cybersecurity Awareness Month Focuses on the “People” Part of Cybersecurity
October is recognized every year as Cyber Security Awareness Month (CSAM). Starting in 2004, this important awareness month has been a collaboration between The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) and the National Cybersecurity Alliance (NCA) to lead a collaborative effort between government and industry to raise cybersecurity awareness nationally and internationally.
Case Study: How a Major U.S. City Rapidly Modernized Its Cybersecurity Defenses
In our newest case study, “How a Major U.S. City Rapidly Modernized Its Cybersecurity Defenses,” we share how the City cut its cyber tool footprint in half, gained visibility into advanced foreign adversary attacks, and greatly improved the productivity of its SOC staff.

Getting Ahead of the Adversary with Third-Wave AI
In a world where bad actors are capable of building sophisticated AI capable of sidestepping traditional cybersecurity platforms, it has become critically important to onboard tools that work in real-time, are deadly accurate, and can predict an incident before it happens.
Webinar: State of InfoSec Q3 2022
Are you curious what threats other CISOs are prioritizing right now? Do you know what the most in-demand security talent is right now? Hundreds of Cybersecurity professionals recently responded to MixMode’s nation-wide survey on InfoSec strategies for the end of 2022.
Updated for 2022: What is Network Traffic Analysis? A Beginner’s Guide
87 percent of organizations use network traffic analysis (NTA) tools for threat detection and response according to ESG, an IT strategy firm. In their 2020 study, 43 percent of organizations surveyed said NTA is a “first line of defense” for detecting and responding to threats.
Can Your Cyber Tools Monitor Any Stream of Data?
It’s the open secret no one’s talking about — too many cybersecurity solutions in the marketplace stand no chance of providing comprehensive coverage because they are incapable of handling data arising from all sources. Many available solutions are effectively legacy platforms hiding within fresh marketing packages.
The Fallacy of “One-Click Remediation”
Let’s take a closer look at the false narrative being propagated in the cybersecurity market and explore some more appropriate alternatives. An example of a legacy cyber tool vendor “feature” being touted as an ideal solution to the problem of automatic remediation is reliant on a standard (though rarely used for reasons we will explore in this article) function known as TCP Reset.
Understanding the Evolution and Impact of AI on Cybersecurity
MixMode’s unsupervised, third-wave AI computes patterns of interaction over many different timescales, contrasting it over the next 5-minute interval with what was seen previously. Should patterns deviate, the platform performs an assessment of the security risk implied in that deviation and presents it to the user.
Updated for 2022: What is Network Detection and Response (NDR)? A Beginner’s Guide
Network detection and response, or NDR, has been established as a key tool for companies seeking to improve their threat response. It has become a network security strategy which developed in response to perceived shortcomings in existing network security systems.
Customer Case Study: Self-Learning Cyber Defense for Financial Institutions
The nation’s largest Financial Services providers are a favorite target for nation-state sponsored and coordinated cyber-attacks. Despite significantly more financial and resource investment in cybersecurity than any other industry, critical infrastructure breaches and novel attacks remain a daily occurrence.
False Narratives in the Cybersecurity Tools Market
Mature cyber security teams understand a harsh reality often ignored by legacy cyber tools vendors: correlation must not be confused with causation.
The Broken Promises From Cybersecurity Vendors
Cybersecurity tool vendors understand that historically, the determining factors for a successful Security Operations Center (SOC) have been dependent entirely on 2 operational factors rather than the underlying technology.
How MixMode is Embracing Zero Trust
Zero-trust is at the heart of the MixMode solution through its use of Self-Learning, Unsupervised AI. The AI is driven by a zero-trust generative model that initially takes no historical knowledge to function and is unbiased from human alteration.
Whitepaper: Is “One-Click Remediation” Intentionally Misleading SOC Teams?
Geoffrey Coulehan, Head of Sales for MixMode, pens our latest whitepaper on the misleading “one-click remediation” claims that many cybersecurity tool vendors are using in the marketplace.
