Book Description

The Mitre ATT&CK framework is an extraordinary resource for all SOC environments, however, determining the appropriate implementation techniques for different use cases can be a daunting task. This book will help you gain an understanding of the current state of your SOC, identify areas for improvement, and then fill the security gaps with appropriate parts of the ATT&CK framework. You’ll learn new techniques to tackle modern security threats and gain tools and knowledge to advance in your career.

In this book, you’ll first learn to identify the strengths and weaknesses of your SOC environment, and how ATT&CK can help you improve it. Next, you’ll explore how to implement the framework and use it to fill any security gaps you’ve identified, expediting the process without the need for any external or extra resources. Finally, you’ll get a glimpse into the world of active SOC managers and practitioners using the ATT&CK framework, unlocking their expertise, cautionary tales, best practices, and ways to continuously improve.

By the end of this book, you’ll be ready to assess your SOC environment, implement the ATT&CK framework, and advance in your security career.
