Bigger budgets, better security? Not quite...

摘要

Much to the dismay of CFOs and CISOs alike, greater spending on cybersecurity products hasn't entailed a better organizational security posture. Despite the millions of dollars spent by organizations year on year, the average cost of a cyberattack jumped by 50 percent between 2018 to 2019, hitting $4.6 million per incident. Labor-intensive security solutions like signature-based heuristics, machine learning and threat hunting all necessitate a large SOC operation to monitor and manage. Machine learning tools don't minimize this demand on skilled human expertise, as a large team of cyber researchers is needed to train the ML model and repeatedly place heuristics on new malware - a significant expense that is built into the cost of the product.
