Security teams gain snippets of insight from defensive failures through public breach disclosures or the investigative reporting that follows large-scale and brand-name hacks.

Upon "Going dark" after a breach detection, the security products vendors used within the compromised environment are similarly shut out - at precisely the time they can potentially add the most value to both the victim and the wider defensive ecosystem.

With today's complex and rapidly changing ecosystem of layered defenses, suite integrations, data connectors, automated response orchestration, policy configurations, and hybrid environments, breach response to a new threat or attack technique is rarely distilled down to adding a new detection signature or firewall rule.

Leverage the R&D expertise of your security vendors - you've probably already paid for it!

The stigma of a breach can be shared with vendors and any associated public shame lessens with rapid threat response.
