CSOC – Cyber Security Operations Centre

The Defence Signals Directorate is the national authority on the security of information across government. DSD provides a range of information security services to ensure that sensitive government electronic information systems are not susceptible to unauthorized access, compromise or disruption. The Cyber Security Operations Centre was established in DSD as an initiative of the Australian Government’s Defence White Paper to mitigate the cyber threat to Australia’s national security. The Centre meets two needs. It provides Defence with a cyber warfare capability and provides a resource designed to serve all government agencies. In the past decade, the growing importance of operations in cyber space has become increasingly apparent. Our national security is under threat from a range of cyber actors. Our adversaries are often well resourced, highly skilled and able to defeat commercially available security solutions.

Network Traffic Analysis (NTA): A Cybersecurity ‘Quick Win’

whitePaper | February 27, 2020

According to research from ESG and the Information Systems Security Association (ISSA), 91% of cybersecurity professionals believe that most organizations are either extremely or somewhat vulnerable to a significant cyber-attack or data breach.1 This level of cyber-risk demands immediate attention and action from CISOs, CIOs, and business executives. As a result, 62% of organizations plan to increase cybersecurity spending in 2020.2 Here’s the problem: Increasing security budgets alone isn’t enough. CISOs need quick and easy wins that can greatly bolster security efficacy and streamline operations without demanding massive projects and vast resources. There is a lot of work ahead. This white paper concludes.

Security Operations Maturity Model

whitePaper | February 20, 2020

As the threat landscape continues to evolve, your cybersecurity efforts must follow suit. With your security operations center (SOC) at the core of your offense against threats, you must ensure that it can handle anything that comes its way. To be effective, you need to mature your SOC to stop threats early — before damage occurs. Whether your SOC is a virtual team of two to three or a 24x7 operation, maturing your security operations capabilities will help you achieve a faster mean time to detect (MTTD) and mean time to respond (MTTR) to cyberthreats. This white paper explores LogRhythm’s Security Operations Maturity Model (SOMM), which explains how to measure the effectiveness of your security operations. Through the model, you can learn how to mature your security operations capabilities, improving your resilience to cyberthreats.
