Summary from the TLDR InfoSec newsletter

Traditionally, defensive security has taken a reactive model, searching for specific attacks and responding to a single attack vector. Modern defenses need a contextual view to assess whether a seemingly benign action is anomalous or risky in the context in which it occurs. To use contextual security practices, teams should ensure they have enough quality data, clear boundaries on what actions require human oversight, and the ability to reverse any automated actions.
