Even with a comprehensive multi-layered protection solution in place, no organization can prevent every endpoint attack. When an attack occurs, security operations center (SOC) teams need fast, effective response actions to mitigate the damage from a breach. A key factor in improving incident response processes is lowering mean-time-to-response (MTTR) or dwell time.

This means you should aim to eradicate cyberthreats from the environment as quickly as possible to effectively combat sophisticated attacks and avoid the damage a successful breach can inflict on an organization’s reputation and bottom line.
