Three Emerging Threat Trends and Best Practices to Mitigate Them

The cyber threat landscape continues to evolve at a breakneck pace, with more and more cyber-attacks leveraging living-off-the-land, fileless, and other evasive attack methods, and criminals increasingly harnessing Cybercrime-as-a-Service offerings to deploy and adapt attack infrastructure rapidly. With the resulting deterioration in the quality and strength of digital signals used to identify cyber threat activity and the increase in volume and velocity of cyber-attacks, defenders are challenged more than ever to detect and respond to these “low-and-slow” intrusions. In this talk, you will learn how these trends impact current threat detection technologies and what organizations can do to counter and mitigate them. Join Oliver Rochford, Applied Research Director & Security Evangelist, to learn more about the top trends, how they impact current threat detection technologies and how to counter and mitigate them.
