Security operations are the epicenter of the cybersecurity industry. SecOps is where the metaphorical rubber meets the road for organizations defending their enterprises. Security Governance Risk & Compliance (SGRC), Security Application Development, Security Engineering, and all respective cybersecurity functions overlap to enable Security Operations Centers to respond to the threat. These teams hold the line, 24/7 through nights, weekends, and holidays to defend today's enterprises. Yesterday's SecOps was grounded in perimeter-based approaches to secure data inside an organization. The pandemic has created a technological revolution driving businesses to the cloud as well as evolving IT policies to support globally distributed and remote workforces. The threat has capitalized on this growth and change in business, which drives our need to mature SecOps programs. A mature SecOps team operates along with measurable service level agreements, constantly learning from adversaries and proactively mitigating the threat. Maturing SecOps isn't just getting better at defending; it's modernizing with evolving people, processes, and technologies.
