That puts added pressure on threat hunters to get ahead of the problem before it’s a problem. As the average cost of data breaches continues to climb, too much is at risk by keeping the status quo. Remediation and resolution after the fact no longer cut it. But if threat hunters know ahead of time who is being targeted and what endpoints are going to be impacted, that’s a game-changer. At that point, they can take proactive measures to protect their organizations.
At McAfee.com/activate, our portfolio of technologies not only extends protection across all endpoints and the cloud but also streamlines the process of investigation, allowing threat hunters to drill down across sectors, industries, and regions. We cross-correlate known campaigns using industry and geographical threat activity with an organization’s own endpoint McAfee.com/activate security posture derived from its security telemetry.
That’s a major boon for threat hunters who now can glean accurate insights into the potential constellation of potential security risks. They no longer need to manually pick through disparate pieces of data, separating out false positives from real indications of trouble. So, instead of wasting precious time on busywork, they apply their talents to the task of finding the most effective way to deal with incoming threats.
Even on a good day, the threat hunter’s job is hard enough. Without the necessary information to help understand the bigger picture, it looks more like Mission Impossible. But with a recently announced, uniquely, proactive, McAfee.com/activate MVISION Insights in hand, threat hunters can finally flip the script to take the fight to the bad guys. Remember: the best defense is always a good offense.
Check it out—our Chief Scientist Raj Samani weighs on MVISION Insights.
