What is the Defender’s Advantage and why did Mandiant decide to put this out there?
This is the second edition. What is different about DA-II?
Why do so few defenders actually realize their Defender’s Advantage?
The book talks about the importance of being “intelligence-led” in cyber defense. Can you elaborate on what this means and how organizations can practically implement this approach?
Detection engineering is presented as a continuous cycle of adaptation. How can organizations ensure their detection capabilities remain effective and avoid fatigue in their SOC?
Many organizations don’t seem to want to make detections at all, what do we tell them?
What is this thing called “Mission Control”- it sounds really cool, can you explain it?
