Incorporating a Prevention Mindset into Threat Detection and ResponseThreat detection and response systems, by definition, are reactive because they have to wait for damage to be done before finding the attack. With a prevention-mindset, security teams can proactively anticipate the attacker's next move, rather than reacting to specific threats or trying to detect the latest techniques in real-time.
The report covers areas enterprises should focus on:
What positive response looks like.
Improving security hygiene.
Combining preventive actions with red team efforts.
Incident Readiness and Building Response Playbook
In this special report, learn the Xs and Os of any good security incident readiness and response playbook.

Email doesn't work that way...and from time to time you're going to get unfamiliar senders (and, therefore, non-whitelisted senders) who are sending legitimate email.
Of course, all of these emails could be "authenticated," but then what if someone who has authentication via a certificate authority then decides to become a bad actor?
The easy rebuttal to this is that, "Well, that's okay, because we'll have their identity -- and can thereby revoke their authentication."
But then that gets us down the data-privacy rabbit hole.
It's one thing for online retailers and other sellers / companies to authenticate themselves publicly. It's another thing to ask people to authenticate themselves for private communication.
Or what am I missing here?
