It's a LogCrafters' world!
Welcome to LogCraft's blog! In this short inaugural blog post, we will start exploring the core themes associated with LogCraft. Stay tuned, we have a lot more to share!
Detection Engineering
Detection Engineering is the essential foundation of any modern cybersecurity strategies, yet this term is still loosely defined and debated in the community in 2023.
Similar to the transformative impact Agile had on Software Development, Detection Engineering offers the potential for improved processes and advanced tooling for threat detection, drawing inspiration from established Software Engineering practices. However, it is crucial to carefully consider the potential pitfalls that may arise. Yes, we cannot just replicate Software Engineering practices as-this ; cybersecurity is a serious different business.
With over two decades of experience in both the Software and Cybersecurity industries, we built LogCraft with invaluable insights into what aspects of Software Practices can be effectively borrowed and applied to cybersecurity. In subsequent posts, we will delve deeper into these insights and their implications.
Threat Hunting
Threat hunting involves proactive searching for threats that may have evaded existing security controls. Armed with advanced tools and techniques, threat hunters explore network traffic, endpoint data, and other sources to identify and neutralize hidden threats before they wreak havoc.
Although Threat Hunting is a concept that is reasonably well comprehended, we will delve into a detailed comparison between Threat Hunting and Detection Engineering in an upcoming post.
Splunk: The Ultimate Security Ally
Splunk, a leader in the field of security information and event management (SIEM), empowers organizations to navigate the complex threat landscape. By collecting, analyzing, and correlating vast amounts of data from various sources, Splunk provides valuable insights into potential security incidents. Its user-friendly interface, powerful search capabilities, and customizable dashboards make it an indispensable tool for security teams.
However, despite its remarkable capabilities, this formidable search engine falls short in certain crucial aspects required by modern Security Operations Centers (SOC). To address this gap, we built LogCraft, a comprehensive solution that complements and enhances Splunk's functionalities.
In subsequent posts, we will delve into the unique features and benefits of LogCraft that empower SOC teams to bolster their cybersecurity efforts.
