Managing a Defense Security Team
In the previous chapter, we discussed the composition of a typical blue team, and how to hire the right talent. In this chapter, we will focus on how an organization’s management team can ensure the blue team is working efficiently via measurable and tangible metrics that can be defined to ensure the organization is well defended.
Every organization should look at the right metrics that apply to them. This helps them not only objectively define the level of security they currently have but also ensure they are progressing and improving with each passing day. Moreover, in this chapter, we will review how to alleviate the workload on the blue team and look at automation with the help of some popular tools.
In this chapter, we will cover the following topics:
- Why must organizations consider metricizing cybersecurity?
- Why and how organizations can automate this process
