Three security data predictions for 2024

New and updated regulations, along with increased scrutiny from the SEC, put a strain on governance, risk and compliance teams to manage an organization's security, risk and compliance posture.
At the end of the day, security teams' jobs are to answer questions posed by regulators, auditors, the board, and the CISO, about risks, attacks, and compliance status.
From GRC analysts to threat hunters, security groups often are scrambling to collect and make sense of siloed security data so they understand what they're up against.
With these realities in mind, I've got three predictions for 2024 that I hope will inspire security data decision-makers in the right direction.
Big data insights won't be just for data scientists anymore.
The ability to extract meaningful business insights from big data has largely been the domain of the highly specialized data scientist.
In the coming year, we'll see changes that accelerate the ability of security teams to join and digest large amounts of data in more accessible ways.
Data fabric platforms, data security posture management, and data science and machine language platforms are changing the game, unifying and simplifying access to enterprise security data.
The more user-friendly interfaces of these platforms give more people on more teams the ability to see and act on threats or other challenges to the business.
The democratization of data comes none too soon, as advancements in AI are making it easier for bad actors to infiltrate.
Cybersecurity teams will make the jump into data lakes to wrangle siloed data sets and decrease security data storage costs.
It's been the lament of cybersecurity teams for years: All those security tools are producing a ton of great data, but it's difficult to combine that data quickly and easily to find and take action on threats.
Security information and event management solutions help, but they're expensive and limited by storage and ease of access.
In 2024, cloud-based data lakes will beckon, and security leaders will look from beyond their pond to see if they can obtain a little of that beach-front property being used by their colleagues on the IT, data, finance, HR or other teams.
Data lakes for security - or security data lakes - will go mainstream, providing a much better option for bringing together and storing all that siloed security data while enhancing scalability and accessibility for data sharing across teams.
The result will be vastly improved cybersecurity through faster threat detection and mitigation, and better adherence to compliance mandates.
2024 will be the year that governance, risk and compliance is profoundly transformed by continuous controls monitoring.
At the mercy of mostly manual processes and tools like Excel and PowerPoint to keep track of compliance gaps and issues, GRC teams-especially in large organizations-have been challenged to keep up to date with their organization's security, risk and compliance posture.
They'll look to data fabrics and data lakes to power their CCM reports, as these technologies facilitate data lineage, which is helpful for consistency of reporting at audit time.
Data fabric platforms, security data lakes and continuous controls monitoring can ease the burden on both security and GRC teams by giving them the deep, actionable insights they need to thwart bad actors and stay compliant.
