Growing cyber threats are leaving many organizations struggling to keep up. Advanced persistent threats (APTs), zero-day attacks, and advanced malware require robust security measures (fact). Gartner says that by 2025, 40% of boards of directors will comprise a cybersecurity committee overseen by qualified board members.
Here's my viewpoint on GenAI-based MDR Operations
Aujas' MDR service is crucial in early threat detection and response. Through a proactive approach, MDR utilizes GenAI-powered tools and technologies to:
Continuous Monitoring
GenAI algorithms relentlessly scan endpoints, networks, and systems for any sign of suspicious activity. This goes beyond standard signature-based methods of unveiling anomalies previously undetectable. Forrester predicts that by 2024, 30% of organizations will avail or set up MDR (services).
Behavioral Analysis
GenAI is adept at building baselines of normal system behavior. This way, unusual patterns that might indicate an attack are flagged instantly for further investigation. IBM's Cost of a Data Breach Report 2023 found that the global average cost of a data breach in 2023 was USD 4.45 million; organizations with extensive use of security AI/automation experienced $1.76 million lower breach costs compared to those without AI/automation.
Threat Intelligence Integration
Aujas' MDR incorporates the latest threat intelligence, keeping GenAI models updated on constantly evolving threat vectors. Gartner foresees that by 2025, 50% of enterprises will use cybersecurity risk as a primary determinant in conducting third-party transactions and business engagements. As per IBM reports, organizations using threat intelligence identified breaches 28 days faster.
If MDR is the front-line defense, XDR offers an unparalleled, consolidated view of your IT infrastructure. XDR empowers GenAI with broader visibility to:
Cross-Vector Correlation
GenAI's brilliance thrives within XDR, correlating unrelated events across endpoints, networks, cloud services, and more. This helps identify stealthy attacks that would otherwise slip through the cracks. Gartner predicts that by 2025, 60% of organizations will use XDR from a single vendor for threat detection and response.
Automated Contextual Insights
XDR provides additional context around threats, leveraging GenAI to enrich data and aid your security team in making faster, smarter decisions. Forrester estimates that XDR can reduce mean time to detect (MTTD) by up to 80%.
Enhanced Incident Response
Integrated XDR platforms with GenAI help with detection and automate specific responses. This minimizes attack dwell time and lessens potential damage. IBM found that organizations with fully deployed automation identified and contained breaches 74 days faster than those without.
EDR focuses on your organization's endpoints in today's modern cybersecurity defense. Aujas' EDR offerings, augmented by GenAI, include:
Deep Endpoint Visibility
GenAI algorithms dive deep into endpoint activity logs, analyzing files, processes, and communications patterns to expose sophisticated threats that often evade traditional antivirus approaches. Ponemon Institute reported that 68% of organizations experienced one or more endpoint attacks that compromised data and IT infrastructure.
Rapid Containment
When a threat is detected, EDR, facilitated by GenAI, can effectively isolate infected systems to prevent the spread of malicious activity throughout your network. Gartner estimates that organizations that have not deployed EDR will have four times the mean time to identify, contain, and remediate an attack.
Advanced Forensics
GenAI helps analysts pinpoint the attack's origin, understand its full scope, and identify weaknesses in your security posture, preventing similar breaches in the future. Forrester found that organizations using EDR reduced investigation times by up to 50%.
Aujas Cybersecurity does not simply focus on leveraging GenAI but couples it with. Our Armor packages help organizations understand their unique business challenges and craft innovative solutions for the ever-evolving security threat landscape.
As per IBM 2023 reports, organizations with an MSSP could identify and contain breaches 80% of the time compared to those without. Organizations that worked with an MSSP identified breaches 16 days faster or an 8.2% shorter identification time than the 2023 reported global average of 204 days. That took 28 days longer or 12.8% longer. Containment times with no MSSP were five days longer or 6.6% longer than 2023 reported global average of 73 days. Containment times with MSSP assistance were ten days faster or 14.7% faster.
Gartner predicts that by 2025, 99% of cloud security failures will be the customer's fault, underscoring the critical need for proactive, GenAI-driven cybersecurity services.
Harnessing the power of GenAI is a continuous cycle within Aujas’ services, evolving and adapting to match the relentless changes in the cyberattack landscape. With Aujas’ MDR, XDR, and EDR solutions, your organization can strengthen its defenses and proactively protect itself from threats.
