Product comparisons
Plan your evaluation
Write down the workflow, systems, operating owner, and evidence needed to make your decision. Use the same scope for every supplier, and ask which parts of the demonstration are included in the proposed package.
Exposure management
Bring findings and business context into a practical order of work. Follow prioritization into ownership, remediation handoff, and verification of the resulting change.
Detection and investigation
Define the telemetry, retention, and investigation workflow required for a representative incident. Distinguish correlation and context from the authority to perform a response.
Managed response and handoffs
Document monitoring coverage, escalation rules, response permissions, and service exclusions. Walk through an event outside normal working hours with the actual operating owners.
Questions to ask
- Which steps does our team own and which does the provider own?
- Which data sources and response actions are included in the quote?
- How do we verify that a response or remediation achieved its purpose?
