The Cipher Brief sat down with Stuart Clarke, Chief Technical Officer for Cybersecurity at Nuix, to discuss how the visualization of data plays a critical role in detecting cyber threats, including insider threats originating from within a company itself. According to Clarke, visualization “solves a lot of problems” and being able to identify “key pieces of information is incredibly complicated” without visualization.
