It is increasingly becoming clear that cybersecurity decisions have broader societal implications than ever before. In 2020 and beyond, technology promises to change our own experience and enhance our way of life, significantly. Society and humanity increasingly depend on tech to work, learn, and socialise. But that dependence is also making our technology, and us, targets. 

To be successful in this new era, CISOs, executives, and security professionals will need to double the efforts to navigate the maze of organisational politics and detractors, engage with the business and place people and culture at the heart of your security program to influence change. 

In this on-demand webinar Jinan Budge, Forrester Principal Analyst, shares insights to help you focus your vision and approach team, organisational and external security culture change as strategically as you would any other part of your security program.

Cybersecurity Implications on Society – feat. Forrester

Attacks on operational technology (OT) have been on the rise for decades. The rise began with the Stuxnet worm that attacked Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) in SCADA systems and has increased sharply in the last few years. Not only do these attacks threaten national interests, but as OT continues to be vital in day to day operations, overall business continuity is also endangered. As such, detecting OT threats has become a top priority as governments and organisations around the world implement programs and deliver mandates to protect critical infrastructure and business operations, across all sectors and verticals. 

While limiting security and operational risk is a crucial issue, sometimes it’s easier said than done. Watch this panel to hear security experts from across industries discuss business challenges, ways to evaluate risk, and strategies to reduce business risk with operational technology.  

You’ll learn: 
- Overview of operational risk and technologies associated with different critical industry 
- How security plays a role in operations and achieving business continuity 
- Ways your peers have effectively met business challenges 
- Recommendations to manage security and operational risk

Threat research can be an invaluable asset to security teams' proactive and reactive response plans. However, general recommendations found in threat research don't always easily translate into practical steps to defend against particular attacks.

During this on-demand webinar with Ultimate Windows Security, LogRhythm Labs' Dan Kaiser and Sally Vincent demonstrate how to translate a recent report on Maze ransomware into actionable steps for your SOC. 

They review how to:
- Turn threat details into new monitoring and threat hunting techniques
- Configure your security solution to incorporate those actionable takeaways
- Use samples of Maze that have been reverse engineered to test your newly configured solution

Maze ransomware: Use threat research & MITRE ATT&CK to turn analysis into action

Ransomware has evolved from a commodity malware strain primarily targeting home users, to a devastating and effective tool in the arsenal of advanced threat groups. As these human operated cyberattacks continue to be a lucrative source of income for threat actors, ransomware will continue to pose a major threat to many organisations. 

If threat actor activity can be detected in the environment early enough in the kill-chain, analysts stand a much better chance of unravelling the entire attack and reducing the risk to their organisation. 

In this on-demand webinar Dan Crossley, Sales Engineering Manager, LogRhythm and Imran Hafeez, LogRhythm Analytic Co-Pilot Consultant, will outline: 
• The anatomy of a human operated ransomware attack
• What additional log data can be enabled within a Windows environment to allow better tracing of threat actor activity, including:
       o	Process creation with command-line execution
       o	PowerShell logging
       o	Microsoft Sysmon
• How you can trace and alert on possible threat actor activity within your environment, with these log sources

Combatting ransomware and APT activity with process-level monitoring

The need to protect, defend and respond to threats — regardless of where the employee, data, systems and applications sit — is more apparent than ever as we continue to work from home.

The Zero Trust model helps verify at every step that only trusted identities have access to systems, networks and data they are entitled to. 

In this short on-demand session, Andrew Hollister, Senior Director LogRhythm Labs & Security Advisor to the CSO, outlines the full benefits of implementing a Zero Trust model and how this approach can enhance cyber resilience. 

Watch now to hear:
 - The considerations to be made before incorporating Zero Trust
 - The barriers and best practices to support a successful implementation
 - The business benefits of switching to a Zero Trust model

The benefits and barriers of implementing Zero Trust

Whilst some organisations have a 24x7 security operations centre (SOC) with teams of dedicated analysts carefully monitoring for threats around the clock, every day of the year. Unfortunately, most organisations cannot afford a 24x7 SOC. The cost of having well-trained analysts onsite at all times outweighs the benefit. 

In this on-demand webinar, Andrew Hollister, Senior Director LogRhythm Labs & Security Advisor to the CSO, outlines how to create an effective SOC, by combining three components — people, processes, and technology — to build an efficient security operation. 

You’ll learn:
• What makes a SOC effective, including best practises for success
• Cost comparisons of various SOC staffing models
• Steps for building a SOC with limited resources 
• How a NextGen SIEM solution is the ideal technology for building a SOC

How to Build a SOC with Limited Resources

In this webinar, Abdulrahman Aldalbahi, LogRhythm Enterprise Sales Manager & Muntaser Bdair, Chief Operation Officer, SecurityMatterz, will outline how you can align with Saudi ECC compliance and MITRE ATT&CK for rapid threat detection and response.

As ransomware attacks continue to hit the headlines around the globe they pose a major threat to businesses of all sizes. How do you protect your organisation against ransomware effectively to reduce the associated risk?

In this on-demand webinar, Dan Crossley CISSP, Sales Engineering Manager at LogRhythm, and Andrew Hollister, Senior Director LogRhythm Labs & Security Advisor to the CSO, discuss:

•	Recent ransomware incidents 
•	Why ransomware attacks are more prevalent and destructive than ever before 
•	Practical tips to help you detect and respond to ransomware attacks
•	How a SIEM can be used to reduce the risk

Best Practices For Reducing Ransomware Risk

Today, ransomware attackers won’t simply back down if their demands are not met. Even companies who have great backups and a fast recovery process are vulnerable to an emerging strategy: exfiltrating the victim’s most private data before demanding a ransom. If victims refuse to make the payment and initiate restoring their systems, the attacker reveals what information they have exfiltrated and threatens to post it online.

That threat is completely different from the standard ransomware threat. This is because we’ve now shifted from an Integrity and Availability threat to a Confidentiality threat and of course there is the possible nightmare of privacy and other compliance regulations depending on the nature of the data that’s been exfiltrated.

During this webcast, Randy Franklin Smith from Ultimate Windows Security provides an overview of some recent high-profile attacks that have employed this strategy, including those against Honda, Xerox and Garmin. He will also discuss detection methods and MITRE ATT&CK® techniques commonly used in ransomware attacks.

Then, Brian Coulson from LogRhythm’s Threat Research team will demonstrate how to detect and respond to these types of threats using MITRE ATT&CK, UEBA capabilities, and more.

Join this webinar to learn about the latest trends in ransomware and how you can protect your organisation from them.

Keeping pace with ransomware: Lessons learnt in the past year

Working in security can sometimes feel as though you are sitting on top of a powder keg. It’s a fact that cybersecurity professionals are reporting higher levels of stress than they did just two years ago. We wanted to learn the causes of tension and anxiety — as well as understand potential ways teams might alleviate and remediate the potential of job burnout.

Our global survey of more than 300 security professionals and executives investigated the reasons behind increased stress on security teams, solution capabilities, deployment strategies, technology gaps, and more. In this on-demand webinar, we explore some of the key findings from this research, including:

- Why security professionals say they have more work stress than they did just two years ago.
- Just how many teams feel that they have adequate executive support.
- How capable teams say they are to detect known security threats.
- The number one reason security professionals say they would leave their jobs.

If you work in security, hearing that stress is impacting your space is likely no surprise. 

Watch on-demand to hear Andrew Hollister, Head of LogRhythm Labs & Security Advisor to the CISO at LogRhythm, outline why your team may be experiencing more stress than ever before, the effect executive support has on your program and some indicators on how to alleviate some of the issues your team may be facing.

The State of the Security Team: Are Executives the Problem?

To avoid a data breach, your organisation must detect and respond quickly to anomalous activity. The Verizon Data Breach Investigations Report, 2017 states that user-based threats are on the rise:

• 69% of organisations report incidents of attempted data theft — by internal threats.
• 81% of breaches involve stolen or weak credentials.
• 91% of firms report inadequate insider threat detection programs.

User and entity behaviour analytics (UEBA) can help you monitor for known threats and behavioural changes in user data, providing critical visibility to uncover user-based threats that might otherwise go undetected.

In this on-demand webinar, Mohan Raj and Ashok Chokalingam from our iMETA team at LogRhythm,l outline the various types of insider threats, the risk they pose to an organisation, the various contributors that may lead to this threat and how to identify and mitigate the risks.

Mitigating the risks of insider threats with UEBA
