  • The Future of SecOps in an AI-driven World

    ·

    Dave Gruber

    Security operations (SecOps) is a mainstay of modern security programs. Once focused on reactive, alert-driven activities, today’s security operations have expanded to a risk mitigation function, inclusive of both proactive and reactive strategies like threat detection, response, and recovery. With such a broad scope of responsibility, it’s no surprise that the number and complexity of systems and technologies involved continue to grow, heavily influenced by the more recent explosion of generative AI (GenAI) adoption. TechTarget’s Enterprise Strategy Group recently surveyed IT and cybersecurity professionals to gain insights into these trends.

  • The Future of SecOps in an AI-driven World

    ·

    Dave Gruber

    SecOps is a mainstay of modern security programs. Once focused on reactive, alert-driven activities, today’s SecOps has expanded to a risk mitigation function, inclusive of both proactive and reactive strategies like security posture management, core security controls optimization and tuning, detection and response, and recovery in the event of a harmful cyberattack. This expanded agenda has also increased collaboration with other functions, including risk management, IT, OT, software development and engineering, supply chain management, and more. With such a broad scope of responsibility, it’s no surprise that the number and complexity of systems and technologies involved continue to grow, heavily influenced by the more recent explosion of GenAI adoption.

    Despite all of this, for the first time in the past five years, this research indicates that the scales are tipping, as more organizations reported this year that SecOps is getting easier. This improvement is fueled by three industry mega-trends: tool consolidation, the application of GenAI within SecOps, and the effectiveness of XDR solutions.

    To gain further insights into these mega-trends and other developments in the security operations space, Enterprise Strategy Group surveyed 366 IT and cybersecurity professionals at large midmarket and enterprise organizations in North America (U.S. and Canada) involved with security operations technology and processes.

  • Balancing Requirements for Application Protection

    ·

    John Grady

    Application environments are more complex than ever, with web applications increasingly cloud-resident, containerized, connected via APIs, and delivered via CDNs. On top of this increasingly heterogeneous environment, security responsibility is distributed across a variety of roles and personas. This has resulted in complexity and tool sprawl as security teams struggle to keep pace, with attackers understanding this and using it to their advantage. TechTarget’s Enterprise Strategy Group recently surveyed IT and cybersecurity professionals to gain insights into these trends.

  • Balancing Requirements for Application Protection: Teams Desire Consolidation but Need Specialized Protection

    ·

    John Grady

    Application environments are more complex than ever, with web applications increasingly cloud-resident, containerized, connected via APIs, and delivered via CDNs. On top of this increasingly heterogeneous environment, security responsibility is distributed across a variety of roles and personas. This has resulted in complexity and tool sprawl as security teams struggle to keep pace. Attackers understand this and use it to their advantage through exploits against known vulnerabilities and advanced campaigns that use a variety of tactics such as bots that amplify denial-of-service and credential attacks on web applications and the APIs that tie them together. While platforms are attractive, security cannot be compromised. Security leaders need to understand the actions that forward-thinking organizations have undertaken to properly assess which tools are best positioned to solve the key business challenges they face.

    To gain insights into these trends, Enterprise Strategy Group surveyed 383 IT and cybersecurity professionals in North America (U.S. and Canada) involved with securing their organization’s web applications and APIs.

  • Transforming Observability and Monitoring Through AI

    ·

    Torsten Volk

    AI increasingly enables organizations to understand their limitations and then optimally allocate their technology spending, maximizing efficiency and driving superior business outcomes. Organizations that harness AI-driven observability, visibility, and monitoring platforms can receive data-driven, actionable insights that transform the economics of application development and platform engineering. But technology leaders and platform teams are faced with a key challenge: Identifying and deploying AI tools that are ideal for their environment, expertise, and culture. TechTarget’s Enterprise Strategy Group recently surveyed application developers and IT professionals to gain insights into these trends.

    AI increasingly enables organizations to understand their limitations and then optimally allocate their technology spending, maximizing efficiency and driving superior business outcomes. Organizations that harness AI-driven observability, visibility, and monitoring platforms can receive data-driven, actionable insights that transform the economics of application development and platform engineering.

    But technology leaders and platform teams are faced with a key challenge: identifying and deploying AI-driven observability tools that fit their environment, expertise, and culture. Only then can they seamlessly enhance system reliability and performance through transparent and actionable insights. Organizations must prioritize explainability for stakeholders to understand the reasoning behind AI decisions to foster trust and refine AI’s decision-making processes and criteria.

    To gain further insight into these trends, Enterprise Strategy Group surveyed 377 application developers and IT professionals at organizations in North America (U.S. and Canada) involved with observability and monitoring technology and processes at their organization.
