As a former MSP and a consultant to many MSP and MSSPs I wanted to take a few minutes to talk about "Shiny Object Syndrome". Many of you who know me know that I have always struggled with what I refer to as the shiny object syndrome which can cause some serious company problems and while historically it was tied more to business improvements and solving problems I didn't know existed until I found that shiny object.
Today it's a bit different as the shiny objects are tied more to the idea that there is a tool, widget, service of some kind that can help me and you the listener become better at security. We will talk about SIEMs, SOC as a service, and other tools and widgets that might be a great fit but at what cost. Do I have the resources to implement? Is it replacing something that already does it? Does it overlapping with another product but I need to keep both? These questions and many more... Together we will step through how to make decisions in a space that is evolving faster than we can keep up with scalpel-like tools and services showing up every day.
