Episode 42: Understanding Detection Engineering and Why Teams Struggle With It


Listen Later

In this episode of Detection Dispatch, host Alex Hurtado welcomes Jimmel Peters (JP), a seasoned cyber threat detection engineer from a major media company, to unpack the million-dollar question: why are so many security teams still scratching their heads over detection engineering, even though everyone's talking about it? JP breaks it down for us, walking through how the field has evolved from a "nice-to-have" into an absolute necessity. He shares his take on why behavioral analysis is the new hotness in detection strategies. Plus, get the scoop on AI's impact, dealing with those pesky false positives, and why you really (really!) need to test your detection rules before pushing them live. If you're looking to level up your detection game, this conversation is packed with practical wisdom you won't want to miss.
