The Trellix Adaptive Defense Model (ADM) is a strategic cybersecurity framework designed to guide defenders across the full attack lifecycle—before, during, and after an incident—using a structured, time-aware approach. It shifts focus from reactive, tool-centric defense to proactive, contextual, and human-augmented decision-making. ADM uses the OODA loop (Observe-Orient-Decide-Act) to outpace adversaries and integrates automated playbooks with expert guidance to improve visibility, response speed, and operational resilience. It empowers analysts of all skill levels, reduces alert fatigue, and helps organizations validate security investments through measurable efficacy metrics. The model aims to transform cybersecurity from static defenses to adaptive, intelligence-driven strategies.
