The Blumira Mission

The security and incident detection team at Blumira writes detection rules that power the Blumira platform to help identify indicators of compromise early and often for our customers. They are also dedicated to contributing to the greater security community by developing open-source Microsoft tools (known as Flowmira and Logmira) to make threat detection and response easier for all organizations.

Sr. Incident Detection Engineer Amanda Berlin is a highly accomplished network defender, author of “Defensive Security Handbook: Best Practices for Securing Infrastructure” with Lee Brotherston, published by O’Reilly Media.

The Blumira operations, marketing, sales, and engineering teams are composed of several experienced security professionals who previously held positions at Duo Security and Censys.

By protecting log data both in transit and at rest, Blumira ensures attackers can’t gain access to your log archives to read data without the appropriate keys. Least privilege practices makes the Blumira log database accessible only to internal Blumira services and parties that require access. For data integrity, Blumira validates that incoming logs haven’t been tampered with through periodic review and internal processes, and provides alerts for file-integrity monitoring (FIM) technology whenever changes are detected.

Blumira platform updates are cloud-delivered, sending them automatically to your organization to reduce any lag or downtime. This ensures that you’re detecting and alerting on the most important issues, around the clock. The Blumira engineering team develops and maintains parsers for a wide variety of technical integrations on an ongoing basis to save your team the time and resources of standardizing log data collection.

The Blumira threat detection framework focuses on intrusion behaviors given the ubiquity of Living-Off-the-Land tactics, while also aligning with the MITRE ATT&CK Framework. Loud and/or inaccurate security products can easily lead to alert fatigue, resulting in customers that ultimately ignore their own security tools. With that in mind, the Blumira security team designs, tests, and curates threat detections to be high fidelity from the moment of deployment. All customers receive both a contextual analysis and explicit workflow steps to first qualify and then mitigate all detected threats.

 Blumira leverages Google Cloud and Google Compute Platform (GCP) to provide a highly available security platform for our customers. Blumira maintains 99.99% uptime to ensure our service is always available and reliable.
