Today’s hackers often favour the phishing email as their weapon of choice. Phishing attacks are not only common, but are also very difficult to defend against. What if you could detect and mitigate a phishing attack before its intended target clicks on that fatal link or opens that malicious attachment?

When your Exchange server is in the Office 365 cloud, solutions such as constant inbox scanning or relying on synchronous mail flow aren’t viable options. Instead, you can find a strong defence against phishing emails in the Message Tracking log in Exchange.

The Message Tracking log is available in both on-prem Exchange and Office 365 Cloud’s Exchange Online. Message Tracking logs include valuable information about the client, servers, sender, recipients, message subject, and more. If you can access this information and know how to mine it, you can detect likely phishing emails.

In this webinar, you’ll learn how to:

- Recognise the format of message tracking logs
- Pull message tracking logs from Office 365 using PowerShell’s Get-MessageTrackingLog cmdlet
- Work through a list of checks to perform against message tracking events to detect phishing emails
- Move suspect emails to a sandbox where you can use analysis tools like PhishTank, ThreatGRID, or OpenDNS
- Remove copies of phishing emails from other recipients
- Automatically detect and respond to phishing attacks with no analyst intervention
- To optimise your phishing response efficiency, LogRhythm has introduced a new open-source Phishing Intelligence Engine (PIE). PIE is a PowerShell framework focused on phishing attack detection and response.

Register for the webinar now to discover how you can use LogRhythm’s PIE and Office 365 to better detect and respond to phishing attacks.

Customer data falling into the hands of cybercriminals. It’s the stuff of nightmares for any organisation. Today the insider threat has the potential to pose a bigger risk to cybersecurity than external hackers.

In this webinar, LogRhythm experts will take you through a real use case in which data worth millions of pounds was stolen. And they will explain how the incident could have been stopped with the right response and mitigation approach.

Join the webinar to:

• Learn how cybercrime has evolved so much that insider threats now rival external threats
• See a live display of activity generated by an insider threat
• Discover cybersecurity innovations that can detect and respond to insider threats in real time

Join us to get a better understanding of the insider threat – and how to combat rogue elements in your organisation.

Threat hunting is the latest strategy to keep networks secure. Put simply, it refers to the process of proactively searching for advanced threats that may have eluded security systems. In other words, going after the ones that slipped through the net.

It’s important to know that threat hunting is more than industry hype. It provides security professionals with a powerful weapon with which to combat threat actors. So, is time to go on the offensive?

•Learn why threat hunting should be on your security mandate for 2018
•Discover some of the core requirements for getting started with threat hunting
•Hear how you can you jump start your threat hunting mindset
•Learn how a simple threat hunt can unravel a more sophisticated attack

Join our webinar to hear Andrew Costis, threat research engineer at LogRhythm Labs, outline how a simple hunt uncovered a malicious insider attack by a privileged user.

Hackers have determined a number of ways to harvest privileged account credentials and use them to infiltrate networks. This makes monitoring privileged account usage critical to reducing your organisation’s cyber risk.

The good news is that Windows provides event ID 4672, which is logged whenever an account signs in with admin user rights.

Event ID 4672 contains valuable information, such as user name, computer name and privileges, and logon session ID. Administrative users will always have one or more of the rights that trigger event 4672.

In this webinar, Windows Security Expert, Randy Franklin Smith, provides free technical training on detecting compromised accounts and demonstrates how to sift through event 4672 details.

If you're in the finance industry, you're going to be seeing some big changes in 2018. GDPR and PSD2 may seem daunting, but they don't have to be if you're well prepared. Adam Brady, Solutions Engineer from LogRhythm, walks us through what will be happening in 2018.

DNS is woven into the fabric of both the Internet and corporate intranets. It works so well that you might even forget it exists—until it is used against you.

Hackers are using DNS to find command and control (C2) servers, control compromised systems, and exfiltrate your data.

In this webinar, a group of security experts from LogRhythm and Ultimate Windows Security team up to show you how to spot threatening DNS activity with LogRhythm NetMon Freemium.

You’ll learn about the malicious use of DNS and how to detect:

- Domain-generation-algorithm (DGA) queries
- C2 data tunneled through DNS
- Data exfiltration via tunneled DNS

Alongside an expanding attack surface resulting from the growth of cloud, mobile and IoT, organisations are now increasingly faced by internal threats. Insider threats, compromised accounts, administrator abuse and other user-based threats are some of the most damaging vulnerabilities and the hardest to detect. This has led to the evolution of user and entity-based analytics (UEBA) solutions, designed to address user based threats, and through the use of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning these solutions are advancing threat detection capabilities in modern security operation centers.

In this webinar, Mark Settle, LogRhythm Product Marketing Manager, and Samir Jain, Senior Product Manager, UEBA, discuss the evolving UEBA market, and advancements in the technology fueling these solutions.

Webinar attendees will learn:
• How advancements in AI and machine learning technology are enabling security analytics and in particular UEBA.
• Why security analytics solutions are moving to cloud infrastructure, and the security implications compared to on premise platforms.
• What security mature organisations are asking for versus what is being delivered
• Whether UEBA solutions are better delivered via security analytics/SIEM platforms, or via stand alone solutions

Building fortresses has long ceased to be an option. Rather, the IT security focus has moved to dealing with the inevitable breaches as quickly, thoroughly and efficiently as possible – disarming threats before any real damage can be done. This means reducing risk to the business by cutting the mean time to detect (MTTD) and mean time to respond (MTTR).

During this video we’ll be looking at how businesses can better protect themselves by adopting an end-to-end process known as threat lifecycle management (TLM), with a focus on improving the effectiveness of both detection and response.

Key topics up for discussion:

· Speeding up detection and mitigation with machine learning

· Reducing mean time to respond (MTTR)

· The problem of 'alert fatigue’

· Automating recovery

· Next generation security information and event management (SIEM)

SANS' 2016 survey of incident response (IR) capabilities indicated that the IR landscape was ever changing. Advanced industries were able to maintain effective IR teams, but it identified hurdles responders face to increase the efficiency of their IR teams.
