CYBERSPEAK: A GUIDE
A cybersecurity glossary with tech terms in clear language
Your guide to understanding security speak
Cloud
Cloud detection and response (CDR) quickly detects, analyzes, investigates, and responds to threats, similar to managed detection and response (MDR) and extended detection and response (XDR) services.
Learn moreCloud security includes the policies, technologies, and practices used to secure cloud computing and its data, applications, and infrastructure.
Learn moreEndpoint
Endpoint detection and response (EDR) collects endpoint data to establish normal patterns, helping monitor for compromises and providing intelligence for containment and remediation.
Learn moreKubernetes
Kubernetes adoption is growing, but security is a challenge. Learn how to address vulnerabilities, integrate security tools, and use automation to improve Kubernetes protection.
Learn moreManaged detection and response (MDR)
MDR solutions quickly detect, analyze, investigate, and respond to threats using EDR, network and cloud protection, and logs.
Learn moreMDR in cybersecurity provides remotely delivered SOC functions, rapidly detecting, analyzing, investigating, and responding to threats through disruption and containment.
Learn moreManaged security services
Managed security services (MSS) provide outsourced threat monitoring, intrusion detection, and firewall management, helping organizations enhance security and ease in-house workloads.
Learn moreSOC
A security operations center (SOC) is a centralized unit that monitors, detects, and responds to cybersecurity incidents, using people, processes, and technology to enhance security posture and manage threats.
Learn moreSOC-as-a-Service (SOCaaS) offers 24x7 cloud-based SOC capabilities, including monitoring, alert triage, incident response, and threat remediation on a subscription basis.
Learn moreThreat intelligence
Cyber threat intelligence gathers and analyzes data on cyber threats to help organizations prevent attacks by understanding threat actors and vulnerabilities.
Learn moreThreat hunting is a proactive approach to finding hidden or unresolved threats in a network, using digital forensics and incident response.
