⬥GUEST⬥Allie Mellen, Principal Analyst,  Forrester | On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/hackerxbella/⬥HOST⬥Host: Sean Martin, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine and Host of Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast | On ITSPmagazine: https://www.itspmagazine.com/sean-martin⬥EPISODE NOTES⬥In this episode, Allie Mellen, Principal Analyst on the Security and Risk Team at Forrester, joins Sean Martin to discuss the latest results from the MITRE ATT&CK Ingenuity Evaluations and what they reveal about detection and response technologies.The Role of MITRE ATT&CK EvaluationsMITRE ATT&CK is a widely adopted framework that maps out the tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) used by threat actors. Security vendors use it to improve detection capabilities, and organizations rely on it to assess their security posture. The MITRE Ingenuity Evaluations test how different security tools detect and respond to simulated attacks, helping organizations understand their strengths and gaps.Mellen emphasizes that MITRE's evaluations do not assign scores or rank vendors, which allows security leaders to focus on analyzing performance rather than chasing a “winner.” Instead, organizations must assess raw data to determine how well a tool aligns with their needs.Alert Volume and the Cost of Security DataOne key insight from this year's evaluation is the significant variation in alert volume among vendors. Some solutions generate thousands of alerts for a single attack scenario, while others consolidate related activity into just a handful of actionable incidents. Mellen notes that excessive alerting contributes to analyst burnout and operational inefficiencies, making alert volume a critical metric to assess.Forrester's analysis includes a cost calculator that estimates the financial impact of alert ingestion into a SIEM. The results highlight how certain vendors create a massive data burden, leading to increased costs for organizations trying to balance security effectiveness with budget constraints.The Shift Toward Detection and Response EngineeringMellen stresses the importance of detection engineering, where security teams take a structured approach to developing and maintaining high-quality detection rules. Instead of passively consuming vendor-generated alerts, teams must actively refine and tune detections to align with real threats while minimizing noise.Detection and response should also be tightly integrated. Forrester's research advocates linking every detection to a corresponding response playbook. By automating these processes through security orchestration, automation, and response (SOAR) solutions, teams can accelerate investigations and reduce manual workloads.Vendor Claims and the Reality of Security ToolsWhile many vendors promote their performance in the MITRE ATT&CK Evaluations, Mellen cautions against taking marketing claims at face value. Organizations should review MITRE's raw evaluation data, including screenshots and alert details, to get an unbiased view of how a tool operates in practice.For security leaders, these evaluations offer an opportunity to reassess their detection strategy, optimize alert management, and ensure their investments in security tools align with operational needs.For a deeper dive into these insights, including discussions on AI-driven correlation, alert fatigue, and security team efficiency, listen to the full episode.⬥SPONSORS⬥LevelBlue: https://itspm.ag/attcybersecurity-3jdk3ThreatLocker: https://itspm.ag/threatlocker-r974⬥RESOURCES⬥Inspiring Post: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/hackerxbella_go-beyond-the-mitre-attck-evaluation-to-activity-7295460112935075845-N8GW/Blog | Go Beyond The MITRE ATT&CK Evaluation To The True Cost Of Alert Volumes: https://www.forrester.com/blogs/go-beyond-the-mitre-attck-evaluation-to-the-true-cost-of-alert-volumes/⬥ADDITIONAL INFORMATION⬥✨ More Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast:

We've got a few compelling topics to discuss within SecOps today. First, Tim insists it's possible to automate a large amount of SecOps work, without the use of generative AI. Not only that, but he intends to back it up by tracking the quality of this automated work with an ISO standard unknown to cybersecurity. I've often found useful lessons and wisdom outside security, so I get excited when someone borrows from another, more mature industry to help solve problems in cyber. In this case, we'll be talking about Acceptable Quality Limits (AQL), an ISO standard quality assurance framework that's never been used in cyber. Segment Resources: Introducing AQL for cyber. AQL - How we do it An AQL 'calculator' you can play around with We couldn't decide what to talk to Allie about, so we're going with a bit of everything. Don't worry - it's all related and ties together nicely. First, we'll discuss AI and automation in the SOC - Allie is covering this trend closely, and we want to know if she's seeing any results yet here. Next, we'll discover SecOps data management - the blood that delivers oxygen to the SOC muscles. Finally, we'll discuss MITRE's recent EDR evaluations - there was some contention around some vendors claiming to ace the test and we're going to get the tea on what's really going on here!

Original airdate: May 19, 2020 A disorganized and chaotic living space can lower our productivity and take a toll on our emotional health. Today, I'm excited to have Andrew Mellen as my guest, who will discuss the importance of tidying up our homes and the benefits of decluttering. Andrew is an organizational expert, public speaker, and the best-selling author of Unstuff Your Life! He's been called "The Most Organized Man in America" by the media having helped over 100,000 people to declutter and simplify their lives. As an authority on organizing and productivity, Andrew's addressed audiences from TEDx; he's worked with several corporate clients and made frequent media appearances, including the NY Times, LA Times, Real Simple, and O Magazine. During this conversation, Andrew shares his views on why we need to simplify, declutter, and create more time and space for the things that matter. He also shares simple techniques we can use to begin organizing and clearing away our spaces.

Welcome back to The Trip Report Podcast, a production of Beckley Waves, a Psychedelic Venture Studio.Over the past year, we've spoken with researchers, entrepreneurs, investors, and practitioners who are pioneering new paths in the world of psychedelics and mental health. After over thirty episodes of The Trip Report Podcast, I figured it was time to give a peek behind the scenes of Beckley Waves and our work to support the developing field.To that end, today, I am speaking with Rock Feilding-Mellen, a co-founder and partner at Beckley Waves.In this episode, we'll pull back the curtain on our ongoing projects, the ups and downs of building in a young and misunderstood industry, and the vision that drives our work to create meaningful change in this emerging field.In this conversation, we discuss:* Amanda Feilding and her pioneering work to support psychedelic science and drug policy reform through the Beckley Foundation* The origin story of Beckley Waves and its mission to develop a new paradigm of care delivery in the field of psychedelics.* Rock's personal journey with psychedelic-assisted therapy and how it shaped his vision for integrating these practices into mainstream healthcare.* The crucial role of supportive care in psychedelic therapy, emphasizing the importance of preparation, integration, and ongoing support.* The Beckley Waves family of companies including Beckley Retreats, Beckley Academy, and the recent acquisition of Nue Life.* The challenges and opportunities of building care delivery infrastructure for a future that includes psychedelics as a key tool for healing and thriving.And now, I bring you my conversation with Rock Feilding-Mellen.Listen to the episode on Substack, Spotify, Google or Apple.Credits:* Hosted by Zach Haigney * Produced by Zach Haigney, Erin Greenhouse, and Katelin Jabbari* Find us at thetripreport.com* Follow us on Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn and YouTubeTheme music by MANCHO Sounds, Mixed and Mastered by Rollin Weary This is a public episode.

This week, Jeff Pollard and Allie Mellen join us to discuss the fallout and lessons learned from the CrowdStrike fiasco. They explore the reasons behind running in the kernel, the challenges of software quality, and the distinction between a security incident and an IT incident. They also touch on the need to reduce the attack surface and the importance of clear definitions in the cybersecurity industry. The conversation explores the need for a product security revolution and the importance of transparency and trust in security vendors. As development cycles shorten and more responsibilities shift to developers, application security (AppSec) is rapidly evolving. Organizations are increasingly building mature programs that automate and enhance AppSec, moving beyond manual processes. In this discussion, we explore how organizations are adapting their AppSec practices, highlighting the challenges and milestones encountered along the way. Key topics include the integration of security into the development lifecycle, the impact of emerging technologies, and strategies for fostering a security-first culture. Boaz Barzel shares his experiences and offers practical advice on overcoming common obstacles, ensuring that security measures keep pace with rapid technological advancements. This segment serves as a comprehensive guide for organizations striving to enhance their AppSec practices and continuously optimize their posture. This segment is sponsored by OX Security.

Manchester, United Kingdom writing team and sisters Rose and Alice Robilliard is a winner in the L. Ron Hubbard Writers of the Future Contest earning her a week-long master-class workshop, an awards event and her winning story will be published in the international bestselling anthology, L. Ron Hubbard Presents Writers of the Future Volume 40. Rose and Alice collaborate and write under the pen name Rosalyn Robilliard. Layton, Utah resident Jennifer Mellen is a winner in the L. Ron Hubbard Illustrators of the Future Contest earning her a trip to Hollywood for a week-long master-class workshop, an awards event and her winning art will be published in the international bestselling anthology, L. Ron Hubbard Presents Writers of the Future Volume 40. Growing up in a tiny English village on the Essex coastline, their imaginations were sparked at an early age by the ancient woodland and salty marshes. As children, they drew comics, wrote stories, and constructed elaborate fairy worlds. Later on, they shared a house in Manchester and began talking about writing stories together more seriously. Much studying and research ensued, in which time they realised that writing was the only place they could really return to the freedom and imagination of their childhood. It was an escape, but also a place where they felt most at home. Jennifer Mellen was born in 1988 in Salt Lake City and raised in Magna, Utah. She has been drawing from a very young age and growing up has explored every medium she could find including traditional, digital, and sculpting mediums. She has also always loved all things fantasy and creating strange creatures and dragons in her artwork. Hermosa Beach, California resident, Stephannie Tallent is a winner in the L. Ron Hubbard Writers of the Future Contest earning her a week-long master-class workshop, an awards event and her winning story will be published in the international bestselling anthology, L. Ron Hubbard Presents Writers of the Future Volume 40. Stephannie Tallent writes various subgenres of fantasy, as well as dabbling in science fiction, mystery, and romance. She's collected a variety of degrees over the years: a bachelor of science in English literature from the United States Military Academy at West Point, a bachelor of science in zoology from the University of Texas, Austin; and a doctor of veterinary medicine from Texas A&M. A small animal veterinarian, she jokes she's a vet-vet, having served as an Army Military Intelligence officer during Desert Storm. Lemoore High School graduate ('23) is a winner in the L. Ron Hubbard Illustrators of the Future Contest earning her a trip to Hollywood for a week-long master-class workshop, an awards event and their winning art will be published in the international bestselling anthology, L. Ron Hubbard Presents Writers of the Future Volume 40. Guelly Rivera is an eighteen-year old Mexican-American from Central Valley, California. Guelly was inspired to follow in her mother's footsteps by watching her mother create beautiful drawings on any paper she could get her hands on. Her mother continues to be Guelly's main inspiration and biggest motivation to keep creating artwork and to improve. Painting has been the media she gravitates toward most. Her bedroom walls have often served as canvas for elaborately painted murals; later to be painted over to do it all again. As Guelly's art became more serious she switched acrylic for oils and bedroom walls for actual canvases, all while focusing on portraits with a surrealist style. She is motivated and excited to see how her art will evolve and where it will take her.
