The Evolution & Future of XDR & the SOC – Scott Crawford – ESW #254
Like our interview with Allie Mellen last week (episode 253, check it out also), we have another analyst roundtable here (all ESW hosts are former analysts), discussing one of the hottest new cybersecurity categories - XDR.
This discussion will touch on why the only thing about XDR that was a surprise was maybe the name - we all saw this coming, partly due to the failure of other, less effective products and technologies. Perhaps more interesting will be to get Scott's thoughts on where we're going from a macro perspective. Distributed SOC? Automated remediation? Next-gen XDR?
