What Is Threat Detection? is a blog by Shaun McCullough, cloud security course author for SANS Institute

Vulnerabilities don’t matter! Patching is terrible! Prove me wrong!

In this blog post, we covered eight different use cases for leveraging cloud resources and services to improve the efficiency of incident response workflows. If you want to hear a deeper discussion regarding this topic, check out the following webcast: Cloud-Powered DFIR: Harnessing the cloud to improve investigator efficiency.

This new vulnerability management maturity model self-assessment tool uses a series of questions to determine an organization’s maturity level across all 12 areas of the VMMM.

I’m in the digital forensics (DF) of the DFIR, the Incident Response (IR) group approach to this action would be very different. How may our actions differ? The (IR) group may be more concerned about when is the next pallet of bananas going to arrive or how does the store quell the panic when only standard bananas are available because of the organics being sold out? In the meantime, I’m standing only focused on this pallet, or maybe only the bananas I’m holding. My lifetime of eating and cyber training tells me that I am correct, but not limited to many steps in my investigation.
