The ROC Revolution: Risk Management Reimagined with Business Context Overlays in the Risk Operations Center | A Brinqa Story with Mayuresh Ektare
Mayuresh Ektare, an expert in risk management and SVP of Product Management at Brinqa, joins Sean Martin for a quick dive into the world of centralizing risk management frameworks. Ektare explains that the magic sauce isn't just bringing the data together, but stitching it together to create a unified understanding of an organization's attack surface. By overlaying business context, customers can prioritize and act upon the right set of findings in a timely fashion. Martin and Ektare discuss the challenges faced by customers in finding a centralized repository for business context, with many relying on tribal knowledge or CMDB records.
Ektare introduces the concept of a Risk Operations Center (ROC), which allows organizations to orchestrate the risk lifecycle and proactively reduce exposure. Comparing it to a Security Operations Center (SOC), he highlights the importance of extending vulnerability management programs to encompass cloud infrastructure and application security posture management.
The conversation also touches on the challenges of managing false positives and distilling a vast amount of findings into actionable items. By overlaying business context and understanding the impact of vulnerabilities on their organization, customers can fine-tune security scores, prioritize effectively, and respond accordingly.
