The City of Phoenix’s cybersecurity leaders, Shannon Lawson and Mitch Kohlbecher, have been at the forefront of adopting new technology to solve the fundamental problem perplexing cybersecurity leaders everywhere: how can we reduce our ever-expanding, costly and inefficient cyber tool footprint while also increasing the effectiveness of our cyber defenses and the productivity of our lean SOC team?
Shannon Lawson, CISO for the City of Phoenix, and Geoffrey Coulehan, Head of Sales for MixMode recently joined forces for a fireside chat at the Evanta CISO Summit in Phoenix, AZ. Lawson and Coulehan have been partnering together for almost three years to transform the City’s cybersecurity initiatives and Security Operations Center (SOC).
Unsupervised learning actually draws inferences from datasets without labels. It is best used if you want to find patterns but don’t know exactly what you’re looking for.
According to a recent M&A trends survey conducted by Deloitte, 51 percent of 1,000 Executives responsible for Mergers and Acquisitions (M&A) at U.S. companies and private-equity investor firms listed cybersecurity threats as their top concern in executing deals virtually.
Ultimately, MixMode found, the log-based SIEM approach resulted in five times the amount of data that needed to be stored, a cost that was passed along to the government entity.
Data is the beating heart of every modern organization, but it’s only valuable when it’s accessible, understandable, and most importantly, protected.
SIEM has failed to meet the needs of enterprises in the modern threatscape. One huge reason for this is that over time, most organizations will come to the sad realization that they will never achieve a full enterprise deployment of their SIEM. By its very nature, SIEM is always “in process.” It’s not unusual for an organization to have an SIEM in process for a full decade.
Despite a three-year SIEM deployment and a two-year UBA deployment, government personnel needed an alternative to better detect and manage threats in real-time, as well as an improved platform for gathering comprehensive data.
