In the past two years, the world rapidly transitioned from physical work to remote and hybrid environments. The shift was inevitable, but as organizations continue to catch up, security operations need effective strategies and solutions for meeting these new requirements. In the past, fusion centers enabled law enforcement, military, and security teams to reach their full potential by unifying people, processes, and technology under one roof; and today, cyber fusion centers are doing the same but with both cloud infrastructure and remote teams as a primary element. By tapping into emerging technologies like AI and machine learning, augmenting existing security tools and consolidating them, and bringing humans up to machine speed, cyber fusion centers are becoming the future of security operations. During this brief chat, we’ll offer a primer on how and why a cyber fusion center is the future of the SOC. Key Takeaways: 1. Why and how SOCs unify their people, processes, and technology 2. Finding a balance between human intelligence and machine speed/automation 3. Using a data-driven approach to threat intelligence
