🔒Treating cyber defense purely in terms of prevention is flawed and outdated.
🔍Detection and response are vital factors in a modern cyber defense framework.
🔧Building a defensible network with proper segmentation enhances security.
📊Implementing security monitoring, including asset and network monitoring, provides visibility into cyber threats.
🔒Proper security monitoring includes tracking device activity and monitoring network traffic.
Why is treating cyber defense purely in terms of prevention flawed?
—A binary view of security where any compromise makes a system insecure is oversimplified. Cyber defense should focus on containment and detection of intrusions.
What is a defensible network and why is it important?
—A defensible network is one that is designed with proper segmentation to limit lateral movement for attackers. It enhances visibility and control over network traffic, improving security.
What is security monitoring and why is it important?
—Security monitoring involves tracking and analyzing device activity and network traffic to identify and respond to cyber threats. It provides visibility into potential security breaches and supports detection and response capabilities.
What is asset monitoring and why is it necessary?
—Asset monitoring involves tracking the activity of devices on a network. It helps identify anomalous behavior and potential security breaches, allowing for early detection and response.
Why is network monitoring important?
—Network monitoring provides a holistic view of network activity, allowing for the detection of suspicious behavior and potential security threats. It enhances the overall security posture of an organization.
