Threat investigation is the process of analyzing, identifying, and understanding cybersecurity threats. It’s an essential step after detecting potential security issues, focusing on gathering and examining information about threats.
A recent study by IDC, commissioned by Exabeam, shows cybersecurity spending exceeded $92 billion in 2022, expected to increase to over $170 billion by 2027.
However, threat investigation is not a simple or one-off task. It involves ongoing monitoring, a thorough understanding of the threat landscape, and a dedication to continuously improving security strategies. This comprehensive approach requires the use of advanced technologies, skilled cybersecurity professionals, and in-depth data analysis to effectively track and analyze threats over time.
