Mario Santana, managing principal at Verizon‘s Cyber Intelligence Center, said the center uses an analytics method to help enterprise clients identify threats that can bypass traditional cybersecurity platforms.
“Hunting injects creative, engaged defenders into the equation with the use of force-multiplying tools and automation that allow us to analyze data so we can provide superior protection for enterprise clients,” Santana added.
Janet Brumfield, corporate communications director for Verizon Enterprise Solutions, wrote Wednesday that the company will demonstrate a range of security platforms and approaches at Black Hat 2014 in Las Vegas.
The company’s latest “Data Breach Investigations Report” has indicated that 66 percent of breach cases studied were undiscovered for months or years.
Brumfield says that Verizon researchers also found that in 84 percent of security events it took only minutes or less to compromise enterprise networks.
