Real-World Cyber Attack Detection: How Modern SOCs Identify, Block, and Contain Advanced Threats
Executive Summary Modern cyberattacks rarely appear as a single, obvious incident. Instead, they manifest as multiple low-level signals across web, endpoint, DNS, cloud, and network telemetry. When analyzed in isolation, these signals may seem benign. When correlated intelligently, they reveal active attack campaigns targeting applications, identities, cloud storage, and network boundaries. This article presents a…
