“GreyMatter integrates security data from security incident and event manager (SIEM), endpoint detection and response (EDR), firewalls, threat intelligence feeds, and other security tools, and includes analysis functions and automation. Threatcare's technology — which will become a new feature on the platform — simulates how a specific threat or attack could target an organization's network in order to determine whether its security tools and settings are or are not actually working to thwart the threats.”

Hedgehog principles

A lot of things crappily, and nothing good
