Episode notes
Adapting Legacy SOC to Cloud
- Consider the people, process, and technology (PPT) framework when adapting a legacy SOC to the cloud.
- Evaluate each phase of your existing process (data collection, detection, triage, investigation, response) and identify necessary cloud adaptations for your people and technologies.
Cloud Detection Focus
- Focus on detecting techniques (as opposed to the ever-changing procedures) in the cloud.
- The core security use cases (external attacks, insider threats) and attacker techniques (e.g., credential misuse for persistence) remain similar between on-prem and cloud environments.
Cloud vs. Data Center Differences
- While broad use cases and the importance of identity remain similar, cloud environments introduce unique technological differences (containers, serverless).
- Consider the supply chain, dependencies, and leaky bucket situations specific to cloud environments.
