Prevention is not enough

BECAUSE CYBER SPENDING IS WRONG
DETECTION, RESPONSE AND PREDICTION IS NEEDED

The most glaring thing to us is how budgets dedicated to cyber security are heavily skewed towards Protection/Prevention (80%) and not enough on Detection/Monitoring/ Intelligence (15%) and Response (5%). No wonder the median number of days before a breach is detected is 229 days and that 67% of companies learned they were breached from an external entity. In today’s world of ”always-on” technology and not enough security awareness on the part of users, cyber-attacks are no longer a matter of “if” but “when.” We live in an age where information security prevention is not an option.

Where organizations do have a fully-fledged SOC including tools like SIEM, NGFW, IPS, Sandbox, etc, their ability to detect and respond to threats is still non-existent, because they are still too reliant on technology and prevention and not enough on detection, response, intelligence, people and process. These solutions remain a key control for combatting today’s known attacks. However, they become less effective over time as hackers find new ways to circumvent controls.

Organizations should be investing in these 3 pillars of security equally, i.e. 33% of their cyber security budgets on Protection/Prevention controls, 33% on Threat Detection/Monitoring/Intelligence and 33% on Response capability. To assist clients on this journey, at LMNTRIX we are 100% focused on complementing customers’ existing Prevention efforts with affordable 24/7 advanced detection, response and prediction capability.
