Monitoring
Cybersecurity monitoring is the continuous process of monitoring and analyzing an organization's network, systems, and data to detect potential threats, breaches, and unusual activity. The goal of cybersecurity monitoring is to identify and respond to potential risks and threats before they cause harm to the organization.
This process involves the use of various tools and techniques, such as intrusion detection systems (IDS), intrusion prevention systems (DLP), anti-malware (AV) systems, and information infrastructure security (ISI) systems. These systems work together to collect data about network traffic, system events, and other relevant sources, which are then analyzed by specialized software and security teams.
Cybersecurity monitoring plays a critical role in early detection and response to cyberattacks, helping organizations reduce the risk of data loss, identity theft, reputational damage, and financial loss. Regular review and analysis of collected data allows organizations to identify trends, correct weaknesses, and improve their overall cybersecurity strategy.
