Breakpoint Security Podcast
Breakpoint-'Exploring the depths of Defensive Security'. The defensive side of Security is a world in itself with teams achieving amazing feats that involve excellent engineering practices and smart optimisation for scale. This is not talked about enough in the industry. Join me in the br3akp0int podcast as we reflect on the methods and approaches these smart teams use to solve practical challenges in information security and innovate their way into the future. Who is this meant for? : This podcast is for anyone in InfoSec willing to know more about advances in security techniques. This includes security researchers or professionals, product owners, compliance or cloud, AI/ML, threat intel, SecOps automation, Security Leaders, development teams, pentesters and security practitioners. A bit about me: I am a technical security enthusiast and have been dabbling my hands at both offensive and defensive security. I am passionate about growing security communities and have spoken and trained at various security conferences.

#S03EP03 DevOpsification of Threat Detection Development | Wasim Halani
Learn to DevOpsify your Threat Detection Development!
Guest: Wasim Halani, Director - Detection Engineering at Securonix
SOC teams face a continuous challenge of evolving threats and a difficulty in developing #analytics to detect such #threats. Recent times have seen the Detection Engineering function evolve along the lines of Software Engineering - which means the Agile and DevOps methodologies also apply to new detections being developed and deployed.
Continuous development, continuous testing and continuous deployment are part of the game.
In this episode, we dive into the challenges faced by traditional #SOC teams in building effective threat detections, explore why threat detection is inherently difficult, and discuss how #DevOps principles can enhance this process. We also cover the groundwork for implementing these principles and the most challenging aspects of developing a #detection #engineering #program.
