“Are we protected?” For many security leaders, it’s the most common question they hear — but it’s also the hardest to answer. It sounds straightforward enough…but there are a few challenges in their way: 👾 Threat actors are only getting smarter and faster 👾 Teams are constantly bombarded with incoming threats 👾 And their toolkit, no matter how advanced, just can’t keep up Security teams, from junior analysts to threat hunters to CISOs, should be able to answer their most pressing questions. And their tools, as expensive and comprehensive as they are, should be helping them do exactly that. SnapAttack breaks the barriers holding today’s security teams back by centralizing #threathunting, #purpleteaming, #detectionengineering, and #adversaryemulation capabilities into one streamlined, no-code platform. So security teams can collaborate, make the most of their tools, and finally answer the question, “Are we protected?” with clarity and confidence. Find out how to get ahead of the threat (and STAY ahead of the threat) by checking out the video, “Proactive Threat Management at Scale | What is SnapAttack?” below. https://lnkd.in/gKpBrpNK

At SnapAttack, we're proud of the strides we've made in empowering cybersecurity teams worldwide. But every great journey has a starting point—and ours began at Booz Allen Hamilton. SnapAttack started with a vision at Booz Allen: to stay ahead of new threats and fix key gaps in cybersecurity. Their creative thinking and dedication to solving tough security problems gave us the foundation to build what we have today. As we grow and keep moving forward, we’re so grateful to the early team members, collaborators, and leaders at Booz Allen who helped shape SnapAttack. As we prepare to embark on the next chapter, we want to acknowledge our roots. We want to take a moment to thank Booz Allen Hamilton as we could’ve never gotten here without you—especially Patrick Gorman, Brad Medairy, Mike Saxton, Garrettson Blight, Kelly Rozumalski, Matthew Wycoff, Tom Taehong Cho, Heather McDaniel, and everyone else who helped us along the way. With a new year approaching, we’re ready to build on this foundation, push the boundaries of what’s possible, and make an even greater impact in cybersecurity. Here’s to what’s next. ⚡

⚔️ Attackers have been known to use PowerShell Remoting for lateral movement and persistence. If you’re not collecting the proper logging you are missing out on an important detection opportunity! Check out our recent blog post to learn what logging is required to hunt and detect suspicious usage of PowerShell Remoting: https://lnkd.in/eBbhmi3B #detectionengineering #threathunting

Building an in-house threat detection strategy might seem daunting, but it’s the most effective way to align security with your business goals. Outsourcing to MDRs and MSSPs can help—but they often lack the customization needed for true business alignment. Our recent eBook, "Making Threat Detection an Inside Job A Practical Guide on Why and How to Build and Scale In-House Threat Detection," breaks it all down: ✅ Why tailored detection strategies are critical for overcoming today’s cyber threats ✅ Steps to build scalable, in-house capabilities for threat detection and response ✅ Key milestones for transitioning from outsourced to in-house operations If you’re ready to move from reacting to proactively controlling your cybersecurity strategy, this is the guide for you.

Is your in-house threat detection strategy ready for what’s next? Building an internal team is no easy feat. From lacking qualified talent to processing roadblocks and tech headaches, it’s a journey worth preparing for—but the rewards are worth it. Here’s what you need to know: ✅ People: Talent shortages are real. Focus on curiosity, data literacy, and collaboration—soft skills that drive long-term success. ✅ Processes: Tailored workflows, solid documentation, and cross-department integration are non-negotiable. It’s not just about detecting threats; it’s about doing it smarter. ✅ Technology: The wrong tools will hold you back. Use user-friendly platforms with robust data normalization, enrichment, and rules engines. Proactive teams win. SnapAttack helps you overcome these hurdles with services designed to fill skill gaps and provide the support you need to scale. 👾 Don’t wait for the gaps to widen.

Is noise really the enemy? 🤔 SOC teams often face a tough choice: ➡️ Go broad for coverage but get swamped by noise ➡️ Go precise but risk overlooking critical threats But what if low-confidence detections weren't the problem? According to the Detection Engineering Collective (and SnapAttack’s philosophy), low-confidence detections are opportunities with the right context. As our CPO, Tim Nary, puts it, “Low confidence detections are not inherently 'bad', they just need additional context to be actionable. Organizations that deploy only high confidence, 'alertable' detections will miss out on a lot of detection opportunities, leading to higher mean times to detection (if they even can detect at all).” The reality is, you can't defend if you can't detect. And with XDR and modern data analysis tools, we can now deal with the noise in a way that we couldn't before. SnapAttack helps you continuously measure and fine-tune detection confidence, filtering out the noise that matters. By anonymizing confidence data across organizations, our platform highlights what’s worth your attention—so your SOC can operate smarter, not noisier. Want a fresh perspective on managing noise?
