Seattle Children's Gains Complete Citrix VDI Visibility with ExtraHop

IoT is growing in the enterprise and becoming of greater concern as an unprotected threat vector.

An organization needs to understand if and how enterprise IoT devices like smart TVs, badge scanners, projectors, whiteboards, and printers, as well as unknown rogue devices, have been connected to the network.

- Is your security team aware of every enterprise IoT device that sits in an office, lobby, conference room, or boardroom?
- Have you completed an assessment of the network security risks from unmanaged, nonstandard devices?
- Is there a plan for detecting and responding to malicious traffic if IoT devices are compromised?

This webinar explores the growth of enterprise IoT devices and the implications for incident detection and response. The enterprise device landscape is constantly changing; your information security team must adopt practices to easily adapt.

With the right approach, your team can quickly identify IoT devices for greater visibility to detect and respond to any new threats that come their way.

The modern enterprise encompasses a complex web of workloads consisting of hardware, applications, and data spread across edge, core, and cloud deployments. Add a growing remote workforce using a wide variety of devices, and the security challenges multiply quickly. With the release of Google Cloud’s Packet Mirroring feature, accessing network packets in VPCs just became much easier. Cloud-native NDR was the missing piece that prevented SecOps from completing Gartner’s SOC Cloud Visibility Triad. Now, enterprises can combine NDR, SIEM, and EDR, enabling SecOps and DevOps to achieve a holistic approach to cloud security and eliminate the risks of misconfiguration, undetected attacks, lateral movement, and data exfiltration.

Join this webinar to experience a presentation and live demo that will show how you can gain complete visibility into traffic traversing your Google Cloud workloads by leveraging Google Cloud’s Packet Mirroring service. During this session, join Dan Frey (Cloud PMM, ExtraHop), Vince Stross (Principal Sales Engineer, ExtraHop), Shishir Agrawal (PM Cloud Networking, Google Cloud), and Yang Liang (PMM, Google Cloud) will present the benefits of adopting a cloud-native approach to Network Detection and Response (NDR) and will share insights about how SecOps and DevOps teams can hold up their side of the shared responsibility model and deliver unified security across the hybrid attack surface.

WhatWorks in Migrating to the Cloud while Maintaining Security and Network Performance (with a remote workforce)

The need for businesses to rapidly move to near 100% work at home has increased the importance of detailed and accurate visibility into user activity in remote connections to both on-premises data centers and public cloud-based services. One effective and efficient way of achieving this visibility is for network operations and security operations to use common tools that support the views and insight into both performance issues and security-relevant changes and anomalies.

During this SANS WhatWorks webcast, SANS Director of Emerging Security Trends John Pescatore interviews Juan Canales, Sr. Manager of Enterprise Security and Architecture at Hill Physicians Medical Group (HPMG), to gain Mr. Canales' insight on what he went through in the business justification and deployment of ExtraHops Reveal(x) to increase visibility into network traffic during HPMG's transition to cloud-based computing. This visibility has already proved invaluable in maintaining reliability and security of remote communications as HPMG runs completely remote operations during the current health crisis.

Join SANS Pescatore and Juan Canales to hear details on his selection, deployment and experience using ExtraHop. The webcast includes a discussion of lessons learned and best practices and gives you the opportunity to ask questions to get deeper insight.

The COVID-19 virus outbreak has put immense pressure on IT organizations who now need to scale remote access quickly to thousands of users working from home. Many organizations did not have a plan in place for this and are doing the best they can. Many remote workers haven’t been issued laptops or are using unmanaged devices that may not have adequate protections. Some companies are running into licensing issues for things like their VPN connections. Join ExtraHop and (ISC)2 on April 16, 2020 at 1:00PM Eastern for a timely discussion on how you can deal with performance and security implications of this shift and receive tips and best practices on how to deal with the situation we find ourselves in.

The COVID-19 pandemic is straining remote access infrastructure and the IT organizations that support them. Many IT teams are doing the best they can to accommodate thousands of users working from home, while Security teams are preparing to defend a newly enlarged and more porous attack surface. Join our expert panel on a timely discussion and best practices on how to handle the performance and security implications of this shift.

As organizations continue to move to the cloud, encrypt communications, adopt IoT and manage third-party vendors, the complexity of the network increases, impeding visibility, slowing operations and impacting security. This survey is designed to understand the current state of visibility and how organizations can make better use of network data to detect threats and troubleshoot connectivity problems. In this webcast, we explore the biggest issues facing network and security teams to offer insight into improving security operations.

Attend this webcast to learn more about the:

- Level of visibility into north-south and east-west traffic
- Confidence in network visibility to detect threats
- Concerns over encrypted traffic
- Use of network and packet data for detection
- Most commonly used network security tools to detect and investigate threats
- Adoption of automation for visibility, detection and response

An estimated 500 million new apps will be created in the next five years—more than the total created in the previous four decades. Cloud workflows have helped organizations of all sizes adopt a DevOps mindset, but for SecOps, digital transformation to the cloud creates new vulnerabilities

Cloud environments expand the attack surface and erase visibility into critical infrastructure and applications, introducing so much complexity—especially inthe case of multi-cloud, used by many 80 percent of enterprises and growing—that many security leaders are forced to say “no” to progress.

There is a way to attack this problem from the inside out. Network Detection and Response (NDR) cuts through hybrid, cloud, and multi-cloud complexity to deliver visibility, threat detection, and automated response at scale.

Join this webinar to learn how cloud deployments are affecting security teams and how they can use agentless NDR to remove friction with developers, help developers bake security into their processes, and gain the speed and agility in threat detection and response they need to secure their growing business.

Keeping Network Inspection Visibility in the Age of TLS 1.3: What To Do When The Network Goes Dark

Like it or not, TLS 1.3 is coming and will make network traffic opaque to inspection. This discussion will cover lessons learned from real-world, large-scale experience decrypting PFS-encrypted traffic and the various options available, including SSL fingerprinting, proxies and session-key forwarders installed on critical servers. Attendees will be able to formulate a strategy for retaining visibility into encrypted traffic that works for their organization.

The MITRE ATT&CK Framework provides an excellent structure for security professionals to identify the strengths and gaps in their ability to detect attacker tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) in the environment. The framework is applicable for cloud, on-premises, and hybrid environments. Join ExtraHop and (ISC)² on March 5, 2020 at 1:00PM Eastern for a discussion on the MITRE ATT&CK Framework as we look at:

• How to get the most value from the MITRE ATT&CK Framework in a hybrid environment

• How upcoming changes in MITRE ATT&CK may affect utilization of the framework by SecOps teams

• How MITRE ATT&CK fits into an overall framework-driven strategy for improving detection coverage and security maturity in hybrid enterprises of all sizes.

As more organizations adopt hybrid environments, integrating visibility and control of your cloud assets with your data center assets is challenging.

SecOps teams that embrace proactive threat hunting have a huge opportunity to improve their effectiveness in 2020 and beyond. 44% of respondents to the Cybersecurity Insiders Threat Hunting survey indicated that threat hunting should be a top priority, and 71% said their SOC doesn't spend enough time searching for emerging and advanced threats. This webinar will cover:

- 2020 Cybersecurity Insiders Threat Hunting Survey Results
- Trends, gaps, and areas for improvement in threat hunting
- Proven best practices security operations teams can use to accelerate and improve their threat hunting practices using existing data sources and tools.

This webcast will more closely examine the results of the SANS 2020 Cybersecurity Spending Survey. A panel of sponsor representatives, led by survey author Barbara Filkins and survey advisor John Pescatore, will explore themes that emerged during the survey.

In this webcast, Barbara Filkins and John Pescatore will provide analysis of survey results and reveal strategies that organizations can use to justify security spending.

A survey of 120 Black Hat students across our Black Hat USA and Europe training courses revealed a scary statistic ... Not a single security professional in the training had the in-depth knowledge or skills to effectively carry out an incident response investigation from end-to-end to contain a breach of their organization.

Unfortunately, this is a true representation of the state of the IT security industry today and is the fundamental reason why the bad guys are winning. Whilst we continue to use traditional security strategies, the bad guys will continue to win.

With limited security skills, resources and budgets, the only way that your organization will survive moving forward is to modernize your security capabilities through automated threat detection and response.

We will discuss the problem space in more detail and how you can significantly reduce the cost of a security breach by enhancing your security operations, and streamlining your threat detection, evidence collection, evidence analysis, and automated response for real-time breach containment.

For public cloud customers, event-driven security isn’t just practical—it’s expected. Although organizations still rely on perimeter-focused technologies, they’re moving away from a strictly protect-and-prevent mindset to one that includes detect-and-respond capabilities.

In this webinar, we’ll dig into how network detection and response (NDR) can power event-driven security in the cloud. Topics will include:
- How virtual taps enable agentless NDR in the public cloud
- How NDR completes Gartner’s SOC Visibility Triad in the cloud
- How NDR can be used for response automation

Cyber security doctrines around the world have an avowed goal of improving user cyber hygiene in the workforce. But no entity within the government or in the private sector is clear about how to achieve this.

Outside of a few thumb rules, such as, asking people to use complex passwords, no cybersecurity professional knows the behaviors that users should or shouldn’t engage in to achieve cyber hygiene.

Often organizations find creative ways of repurposing what they are already doing—such as extending user training or using phish testing performance data—as a proxy for user cyber hygiene. This is the approach taken by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s Continuous Diagnostics and Mitigation program.

But such approaches cloak the problem or attempt to reframe it, rather than address it.

This webinar provides the missing pieces—making it possible for IT managers to better quantify the cyber hygiene levels of users and create an effective culture of cyber safety. Learn how IT managers can implement this method with existing phishing penetration testing and awareness training approaches to instill a culture of cyber safety within the enterprise. No longer does cyber hygiene have to be just a talking point. Instead, using the CHI, CSOs can measure, track, compare, calibrate—and achieve cyber hygiene.

Cloud has now been around for nearly two decades, and in that time it has altered the past, present and future and sent enterprises down a new path for how IT services are delivered and how businesses view IT resources.

While cloud is widely accepted as a business accelerator, it continues to haunt security teams who have gotten a “scrooge” reputation when it comes to cloud migration and adoption.

In this webcast, industry analyst Paula Musich from EMA and Ryan Davis from ExtraHop will take a Dickensian journey through cloud security past, present, and future, and offer strategies for how security teams change the future state from one of cloud stall to one of cloud as a strategic security driver.
