The deafening noise around XDR represents a constant and fundamental cybersecurity issue. The cybersecurity diaspora often looks toward new security technologies as the final piece of the puzzle. While XDR is lauded as the “next big thing” in cybersecurity, it is preceded by a long list of other final solutions like user and entity behavior analytics (UEBA), endpoint detection and response (EDR), and network detection and response (NDR) systems.
Famed cybersecurity author Bruce Schneier is quoted as saying that “security is a process, not a product.” CISOs should take this message to heart when contemplating SOC modernization. Indeed, SOC modernization must be built around people, process, and technology—not technology alone.
