Mastering Cloud Incident Response with Hilal Lone

Episode No: 74

In this episode of the Scale To Zero podcast, we discussed building a resilient cloud security posture with cybersecurity expert Hilal Ahmad Lone.

Here, we’ve covered some of the important areas of incident response, such as incident response teams, planning, tools, vulnerabilities, the role of AI, and more. Discover expert insights and best practices.

Learnings from the podcast

  1. Having a defined Incident Response Process and Alignment among the team are key for a successful Incident Response Program
  2. Monitor your MTTD and MTTR and use that to constantly improve your Incident Response Program.
  3. When it comes to Security of your organization, Open Source or Native security tools or vendor tools do not provide 100% coverage. It always needs customization as these lack the context.
