Iโve seen it too many times โ dashboards full of red, overlapping vendors, alerts that never stop, and teams constantly reacting.
In a $120B+ business, that chaos is the threat.
๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ฒโ๐ ๐ต๐ผ๐ ๐๐ผ๐ ๐๐๐ฎ๐ฟ๐:
1. Cut the noise
De-duplicate your alerts. Focus on context, not quantity. If your SOC is chasing 1,000 low-value pings a day, your real breach might already be hiding in there.
2. Consolidate your stack
More tools = more security. Eliminate overlapping tech. Focus on integration, visibility, and automation โ not tool count.
3. Build around resilience, not control
You wonโt stop every threat. But you can design systems that absorb the hit, bounce back, and keep moving.
4. Empower humans, not just AI
Train your people. Tune your detection rules. Make decisions faster. Tools donโt stop breaches โ well-trained teams do.
5. Align with the business
Security is a business enabler โ not a blocker. Speak risk. Speak value. Speak growth.
๐ก If your cyber (or even IT) strategy feels overwhelming, step back. Simplify. Refocus. Lead with clarity.
