WHAT IS DETECTION AS CODE? HOW TO IMPLEMENT DETECTION-AS-CODE

Summary from the TLDR InfoSec newsletter

Detection as Code (DaC) applies software engineering principles to security detections, making them version-controlled, tested, and automated like regular code. This approach addresses problems like untraceable changes, silent detection failures, and alert floods that plague traditional SIEM-based detection workflows. DaC consists of five components: process management with agile methodologies, expressive languages for complex logic, reusable components, version control with Git as source of truth, and CI/CD pipelines with comprehensive testing.
