Better Detection and Faster Response of True Threats
Detecting and responding to true threats—high fidelity security incidents that have been human-verified and are actionable with sufficient contextual information—before they result in a disruptive or damaging breach, is increasingly critical, and also very difficult. This is because of the modernization of applications and the cloud-scale volume of data that needs to be processed and correlated by the SOC, as well as the fluid threat environment, and the complexity of correlating and managing data from existing security solutions. All of this is made more challenging by the global cyber skills shortage.
Cysiv Delivers
In 2021, 85% of all cases escalated by Cysiv to clients worldwide were true threats. This means that less than 15% of Cysiv cases were false positives, which compares favorably to industry standards of 40-80%. And for many clients, Cysiv delivered fewer than 5% false positives. In addition, once a true threat was detected and confirmed by the platform as a critical or high potential security incident, it took Cysiv less than 5 minutes to respond, either by initiating a pre-approved, manual or programmatic response measure on behalf of the client, or by communicating to the client with clear guidance on how to address the threat.
