People, Process, Technology

October 2020

Detecting sophisticated cyber attacks relies equally on the skills of SOC analysts, the processes at work in their team, and the technology they use.

Meet security consultant and purple teamer, Derek Stoeckenius. In this video, Derek uses his experience of working with SOCs to explain why the three interdependent elements of people, processes, and technology are equally important when building a resilient detection capability.

In this video:

  • How SOC analysts can find the most critical assets on their estate
  • How SOC analysts can develop their own skills
  • Continual development: how analysts can keep up with the latest attacker TTPs
  • The essential interplay between people, processes and technology in attack detection

A strong SOC is key to a strong detection capability. To get you thinking about the training, processes, and resources they need to detect and respond to complex modern attacks, we’ve consolidated expert research and guidance in one place.

A More Effective Approach to Purple Teaming

Purple team exercises help SOCs detect attacks more effectively. By simulating attacks across the kill-chain, analysts can identify high-risk blind spots on their estate and develop an understanding of how attackers behave to conceal their movements. In this video, security consultant Derek Stoeckenius explains why and when organizations need purple teaming.

The F-Secure Guide to Purple Teaming

Purple teaming is used to test and improve detection and response capability, traditionally, by utilizing the skills of red (offensive) and blue (defensive) teams in a competitive simulation. However, an alternative, collaborative approach blends the skills of both teams to maximize efficiencies, contextualize learnings, and increase the real-world relevance of the exercise. This paper explains demonstrates the process in-depth.
