Defending a sprawling, continuously expanding digital enterprise requires more than just deploying sensors and reacting to alerts. Without a definitive architecture of rules and a deeply accurate map of the territory, a Security Operations Center (SOC) analyst is merely swatting at localized fires while the perimeter quietly expands out of control.
