3 Key Challenges to Clarity in Threat Intelligence: 2023 Forrester Consulting Total Economic Impact™ Study

Inundated with data

It would have been really cool to combine those two words to make “inundata,” but it would have been disastrous for SEO purposes. It’s all meant to kick off a conversation about the state of security organizations with regard to threat intelligence. There are several key challenges to overcome on the road to clarity in threat intelligence operations and enabling actionable data.

This is the second entry in a blog series based on The Total Economic Impact™ of Rapid7 Threat Command For Digital Risk Protection and Threat Intelligence. Let’s dive into three challenges organizations are facing when it comes to threat intelligence.

Lack of visibility and actionable data

For the commissioned study, Forrester conducted interviews with four Rapid7 customers and collated their responses into the form of one representative organization and its experiences after implementing Rapid7’s threat intelligence solution, Threat Command. Interviewees noted that prior to utilizing Threat Command, lack of visibility and unactionable data across legacy systems were hampering efforts to innovate in threat detection. The study stated:

“Interviewees noted that there was an immense amount of data to examine with their previous solutions and systems. This resulted in limited visibility into the potential security threats to both interviewees’ organizations and their customers. The data the legacy solutions provided was confusing to navigate. There was no singular accounting of assets or solution to provide curated customizable information.”

A key part of that finding is that limited visibility can turn into potential liabilities for an organization’s customers – like the SonicWall attack a couple of years ago. These kinds of incidents can cause immediate pandemonium within the organizations of their downstream customers.

In this same scenario, lack of visibility can also be disastrous for the supply chain. Instead of affecting end-users of one product, now there’s a whole network of vendors and their end-users who could be adversely affected by lack of visibility into threat intelligence originating from just one organization. With greater data visibility through a single pane of glass and consolidating information into a centralized asset list, security teams can begin to mitigate visibility concerns.

Time-consuming processes for investigation and analysis

Rapid7 customers interviewed for the study also felt that their legacy threat intelligence solutions forced teams to “spend hours manually searching through different platforms, such as a web-based Git repository or the dark web, to investigate all potential threat alerts, many of which were irrelevant.”

Because of these inefficiencies, additional and unforeseen work was created on the backend, along with what we can assume were many overstretched analysts. How can organizations, then, gain back – and create new – efficiencies? First, alert context is a must. With Threat Command, security organizations can:

  • Receive actionable alerts categorized by severity, type (phishing, data leakage), and source (social media, black markets).
  • Implement alert automation rules based on your specific criteria so you can precisely customize and fine-tune alert management.
  • Accelerate alert triage and shorten investigation time by leveraging Threat Command Extend™ (browser extension) as well as 24x7x365 availability of Rapid7 expert analysts.  

By leveraging these features, the study’s composite organization was able to surface far more actionable alerts and see faster remediation processes. It saved $302,000 over three years by avoiding the cost of hiring an additional security analyst.

Pivoting away from a constant reactive approach to cyber incidents

When it comes to security, no one ever aims for an after-the-fact approach. But sometimes a SOC may realize that’s the position it’s been in for quite some time. Nothing good will come from that for the business or anyone on the security team. Indeed, interviewees in the study supported this perspective:

“Legacy systems and internal processes led to a reactive approach for their threat intelligence investigations and security responses. Security team members would get alerts from systems or other teams with limited context, which led to inefficient triage or larger issues. As a result, the teams sacrificed quality for speed.”

The study notes how interviewees’ organizations were then motivated to look for a solution with improved search capabilities across locations such as social media and the dark web. After implementing Threat Command, it was possible for those organizations to receive early warning of potential attacks and automated intelligence of vulnerabilities targeting their networks and customers.

By creating processes that are centered around early-warning methodologies and a more proactive approach to security, the composite organization was able to reduce the likelihood of a breach by up to 70% over the course of three years.

Security is about the solutions

Challenges in a SOC don’t have to mean stopping everything and preparing for a years-long audit of all processes and solutions. It is possible to overcome challenges relatively quickly with a solution like Threat Command that can show immediate value after an accelerated onboarding process. And it is possible to vastly improve security posture in the face of an increasing volume of global threats.

Rapid7 Threat Command Delivered 311% ROI: 2023 Forrester Consulting Total Economic Impact™ Study

Post Syndicated from Stacy Moran original https://blog.rapid7.com/2023/03/15/rapid7-threat-command-delivered-311-roi-2023-forrester-consulting-total-economic-impact-study/

Volume up (and not in a good way)

Rapid7 Threat Command Delivered 311% ROI: 2023 Forrester Consulting Total Economic Impact™ Study

Security teams must continuously contort their efforts to effectively respond to the growing volume of cyberthreats. These constantly shifting methods in the security operations center (SOC) can be difficult to manage in the face of emerging external threats—it can be like keeping multiple spinning plates in the air at once.

63% of organizations globally were breached in 2021, and security decision-makers were more concerned about external attacks than any other attack vector,” according to the new Forrester Consulting study commissioned by Rapid7—The Total Economic Impact(™) of Rapid7 Threat Command For Digital Risk Protection and Threat Intelligence (hereafter referred to as “the study”).

As the world continues to lean into the convenience of the digital age, cyberthreats continue to rise. Greater visibility is needed. Accurate automation is needed. And enhancements to every organization’s overall security posture are most certainly needed to stay secure in the global economy.

Intelligence when you need it

The more contextualized alerts and insight you can gain on a potential threat, the better positioned you’ll be to mitigate the threat before it can have a tangible impact on the business. Threat Command from Rapid7 was specifically built to help security organizations gain clarity about external threats. Can it see around corners? Almost.

Threat Command produced an ROI of more than 300%! The characteristics of the composite organization used for this calculation were based on real-life customer interviews Forrester conducted within their Total Economic Impact (TEI) framework. This representative organization is described as a $5.7 billion global enterprise consisting of 7,500 employees and headquartered in North America. The study concluded that this business realized 311% ROI over three years while also fending off threats with a solution that prioritizes:

  • Immediate value and the ability to get up and running quickly
  • More active responses with agile detection and automated alert responses
  • Simplified workflows that leverage mapping capabilities to accelerate investigations

All of this translates into greater visibility into threats—before their truly concussive effects are felt—which can lead to significantly reduced aftershocks of cyberattacks.

Benefits and other findings

Threat Command reduced the likelihood of a major security breach by up to 70%. The composite organization was able to realize significant efficiencies—and cost savings—leading to a considerable reduction in the probability of a breach event. The Forrester Consulting study states:

“By implementing Threat Command, the composite organization gains greater efficiency to detect, investigate, respond to, and remediate cyberattacks… Having Threat Command as a part of its security environment has the effect of lowering the likelihood of successful breaches by up to 70% over the course of three years and decreasing the impact of cyberattacks. This results in up to $1.1 million (PV) in savings over three years.”

Organizations were also able to leverage Threat Command to lower signal-to-noise alert ratio, as well as proactively identify and remediate threats before they morph into significant business impact. Indeed, automation helped in this area and led to time savings. A study interviewee—the principal threat intelligence analyst for a financial services firm—estimated three analysts on the security team saved three to four hours a day after implementing Threat Command.

“We were having a lot of trouble distinguishing relevant threats from noise. It was a manual approach of pulling the information from these sources … It was very reactive.”—Principal threat intelligence analyst, financial services

Remediation efficiency

Threat Command delivered a 75% reduction in time for investigation, threat hunting, and analysis. When looked at in terms of workforce, this helped organizations avoid the cost of bringing on additional headcount due to Threat Command’s comprehensive detection and user access to Rapid7’s internal SOC and remediation teams.

What about security posture?

Threat Command created benefits of $1.88 million over three years against costs of $457,000. We believe that with numbers like that, employees would benefit, shareholders would be happy, and the company would make progress toward meeting its financial goals.

But threats still loom. So, how did interviewees’ overall security postures look after implementing Threat Command? They experienced the following gains:

  • More efficient security processes
  • Personalized alerts on potential threats
  • Rapid takedowns of accounts and domains from the dark web
  • Greater accounting of all digital assets
  • Transition from a reactive to proactive approach for threat intelligence and remediation

Make intelligence intelligent

With regard to securing an ever-expanding attack surface, information means nothing if it can’t be interpreted and acted upon. Threat Command from Rapid7 can supercharge your ability to turn intelligence into results-focused action with faster detection and automated alert responses across your environment.

There are lots of numbers in this study, and we love that. It’s great to see proof that a solution is capable of helping customers become more confident in their security postures. But Rapid7’s commitment to partnering with our customers goes beyond the numbers. We’ll never stop innovating on the effectiveness of our products and services to proactively defend against—and defeat—the growing volume of global threats.
