Keeping track of cyber threats isn’t easy. The sheer volume of information threat researchers must sift through makes it difficult to collect, analyze, and research that data on time. The key to success is leveraging advanced analytics. It has been estimated that it would take 8,774 analysts working full time for a year to process the same amount of security event data that advanced analytics can process in that same time frame. Advanced analytics takes you from simply monitoring cyber security threats to active threat analytics, management, and prevention.

Organizations today are tasked with meeting the challenges of the current business climate, one of which is managing GRC processes which are often siloed. GRC has a wide reach and impacts many departments across an organization, but when it is done right, benefits accrue. Organizations that integrate GRC processes and technology across departments can ensure the right people get the right information at the right times; that the right objectives are established; and that the right actions and controls are put in place to address uncertainty and act with integrity.

Data breaches are one of the world’s biggest cybersecurity threats for organizations of all sizes. A recent survey conducted by the Ponemon Institute revealed that 59% of organizations have experienced one or more data breaches caused by a third party, costing an average of $7.5 million to remediate. Incorporating current threat intelligence is critical to building and maintaining an effective third-party risk program.

Incident response teams, threat hunters and security operations centers need visibility into what’s happening on their networks so they can make sense of their traffic and move at the speed of attacks. Cybersecurity best practices have moved from protection to detection and response and the lens is refocusing again on data-driven security. Data is the key to making more informed, strategic cybersecurity decisions — and ensuring you’re spending your security dollars effectively. Continuous data-driven monitoring of security in your organization and in every vendor organization with access to your IT infrastructure is the only strategy that will keep you one step ahead of the bad guys.

Many organizations rely on governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) technology to consolidate risk information from internal sources (such as finance, IT, and operations) and external sources to understand their threat landscape. Yet as vendor ecosystems grow in size and complexity, risk management teams are increasingly struggling to procure and maintain high-quality, real-time data to feed their GRC systems.
