Detecting, Discovering, and Eliminating Threats

By Tyler Young
January 01, 2019

Defending your corporation from advanced cyber threats is a difficult and never-ending challenge. The attack surface of an organization is constantly adapting to meet the needs of a business and attack vectors are increasing nearly every few hours. Every new computer system and technology generates more data on your network, introducing additional complications to log analysis and increased noise

Detecting

At Relativity, we have established a cutting-edge Investigation and Analysis team to monitor our corporate and RelativityOne environments. This is done through the collection of advanced endpoint and network telemetry, correlated in our first-class security information and event management (SIEM) architecture. This allows our team to leverage threat intelligence, gaining context and insight during investigations, and develop detection signatures that address key threats facing Relativity and our customers.

Discovering

Any advanced cybersecurity program is expected to detect “suspicious” network traffic and malware infections. However, this just scratches the surface of techniques employed by advanced threat actors to compromise your network and exfiltrate your data. A recent study on cyber data breaches revealed that U.S. companies took an average of 206 days to detect a data breach. According to Mandiant's M-Trends 2017 report, more than half (53%) of the detections of data breaches came from an external source: government agencies. With a staggering number of 201 days (average) to detect data breaches you might ask, “how can I cut that number down?” or “what can I do to better protect my company and my company's data?” There really isn't a single solution for both of those questions, however there are steps you can take to get your organization's cyber program on the right track to stay ahead of adversaries.
