Elastic Security is a solution that enables organizations to modernize security operations.

A core part of this solution is SIEM, which equips practitioners to detect and respond to threats before damage is done.

Detection isn’t easy. Threats are sometimes likened to a needle in a haystack, but what if the needle was actively evading detection? During this stage, the ability to distinguish between normal and suspicious activity is crucial.

Once a threat is detected, the response function becomes critical. Rapid investigation and response can mean the difference between a minor inconvenience and a major catastrophe.

The way threat actors think and behave has shifted radically over the last few years. Defenders, conversely, focus on many of the same operations that we have done for the last decade. This session aims to provide insight into the ways attackers work, and how they visualize organizations and infrastructure to help better align defensive efforts.

 Learn how to monitor for and detect ransomware attacks in the early stages of the cyber kill chain when threat actors conduct recon and devise weaponization in order to extort your organization.

This presentation introduces the concept of MSSO, a game-changing solution designed to PROACTIVELY enhance cybersecurity effectiveness. The Managed Security Service Optimizer (MSSO) is an innovative approach to cybersecurity that marks a significant industry first. 

MSSO goes beyond the conventional Managed Security Service Provider (MSSP) model. It focuses on integrating seamlessly with all your existing security controls, regardless of the vendors, to gain a comprehensive understanding of your configurations, data flows, and routing. A MSSO has the context to proactively identify and bridge security gaps between various security tools, ensuring your organization's digital landscape remains resilient.

Every time a public cyber attack occurs, the pundits, news and industry reps claim that that the attack is “new and unique.”  Poppycock.  There are no new cyber threats and haven’t been since 2004.  The only thing new is the vector of attack and in most cases even those aren’t new.  During this talk we will cover the 5 cyber threats and the 2 primary methodologies required to convert those threats into attacks.  My ascertain is based on my 25 years in the industry from being one the FBI’s pioneering cyber agents, why I left, and what I have learned in the varied roles I have played since then.
