Implementing principles of detection engineering in incident response

Detection engineering is the process of improving detection capabilities by using diverse sources of information to analyze potential threats, identify adversaries' tactics, techniques, and procedures, and incorporate analytics and detection rules to implement them in specific tools such as Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) or perform direct searches on devices.

This process should be technology-agnostic and focus on using existing analytics that have been created by other professionals or on the development of your analytics to detect malicious indicators.

To create good detection rules, you will need the following components:

Good threat intel: As we learned in Chapter 2, Concepts of Digital Forensics and Incident Response, you can get this information from reports from security providers, or you can find them on the internet.
Plenty of sources of information: There are multiple...
