Discern Security’s AI-powered Security Controls and Posture Assessment and Optimization platform helps CISOs and security leaders by: - Maximizing the efficacy of security investments: Fine-tuning security controls and policies to ensure optimal performance and protection. - Delivering cross-platform intelligence: By creating a cybermesh, Discern offers insights into overall security health, coverage gaps, configuration weaknesses, and user and device risks across multiple platforms. - Tailored dashboards and recommendations: Generate custom dashboards with actionable insights and strategic recommendations to improve security posture and resilience. - Comprehensive asset management: Identify, score, and remediate user and device risks throughout the organization, supported by no-code workflows that streamline asset management. - Building value narratives: Help security leaders demonstrate the value they've added to the organization by delivering measurable security improvements, backed by key metrics and alignment with frameworks like MITRE. Discern Security automates the assessment and optimization of security controls for leading tools such as Microsoft, Google, Okta, CrowdStrike, SentinelOne, and SailPoint.

    #SundayThoughts #Cybersecurity #Fun How do you know if your cybersecurity program is actually good? It’s worth reflecting on a few key questions: 1️⃣ What data points are you using to understand your program? 2️⃣ What are your metrics? 3️⃣ Are you capturing the right information? 4️⃣ Do you have an accountable way to track progress? 5️⃣ How much does it cost to get the right data, in the right format? Now imagine you're trying to improve in a sport, like skiing or snowboarding: -Would you hire a full-time coach? -What if they’re remote—how do you show them your progress? -Would you pay someone to track and film you constantly? Or… is there a better, smarter, and more cost-effective way? ✅ Today, There are modern tools that help you track the right data, identify gaps, align with your metrics, and provide clear reports to improve your cybersecurity program. This is why I LOVE working with Sai Venkataraman and Discern Security team! It’s like having a smart coach, minus the ski goggles. ⛷️😉

  • CISOs Are Fighting an Uphill Battle… But It Doesn’t Have to Be This Way! Cybersecurity leaders are investing in multiple tools to combat evolving threats. But here’s the challenge: 🔴 90% of organizations use only 20% of their security controls. 🔴 Even with controls turned on, they experience a 5-10% leakage rate across all assets. 🔴 Siloed tools create fragmented insights, making threat detection a guessing game. The result? Security teams are overwhelmed, vulnerabilities go unnoticed, and proving ROI to executives remains a struggle. Security doesn’t have to be a black box. With Discern Security, you can take control of your security posture with single-pane-of-glass visibility and the right insights at your fingertips. 🎥 Watch the full video to see how Discern Security is changing the game. #CISO #Cybersecurity #SecurityAutomation

  • 🚨 Cybersecurity Tool Sprawl: More Tools, More Problems? 🚨 In the fight against cyber threats, many organizations have adopted a "more is better" approach—deploying dozens of security tools to protect their environments. But is this actually making security stronger? More tools often lead to: ❌ Higher costs and redundant capabilities ❌ Siloed insights and integration headaches ❌ Alert fatigue and operational inefficiencies ❌ Security gaps due to incomplete tool deployment Read the blog to learn how you can make your existing security stack work more efficiently—without additional security investments. #CISO #Cybersecurity #SecurityOptimization
