Mandiant is a recognized leader in dynamic cyber defense, threat intelligence and incident response services. By scaling decades of frontline experience, Mandiant helps organizations to be confident in their readiness to defend against and respond to cyber threats. Mandiant is now part of Google Cloud.

How do you find and protect all of your external-facing assets? Is your attack surface vulnerable to attack?  What do the hackers see?

With new advances in technology comes new methods for hackers to take advantage of existing vulnerabilities,  so staying ahead of the curve is a vital part of keeping your organizations as secure as possible. 

There are several ways to keep your external security tight, but to stay one step ahead of the problem of external security, you need to know exactly what your external assets are, and what they look like to any threat actors. 

In this webinar, Andrew Pettet, Mandiant Sales Engineer and Jay Christiansen, Mandiant Red Team Consulting Manager will explore some of the tools used by security teams to improve cyber resiliency. 

We'll focus on:  

-  Understanding your attack surface, where to start and what to look for
-  A view of some of the tools you can use to look at your attack surface
-  A look at some of the tools that we use during these engagements
-  Operationalizing attack surface data into actionable insights

Attack Surface Management: Improve your cyber resiliency

Attribution assessments are an essential component of intelligence analysis. With threat intelligence one of the critical functions in The Defender's Advantage, navigating the challenges of attribution is essential to developing a proactive security posture. 

This webinar demystifies the cyber attribution process by outlining an approach that focuses first and foremost on a security function's resources and stakeholders. By understanding requirements of key stakeholders, a threat intelligence team is in a much better position to build an attribution process that directly addresses challenges facing an organization. We therefore advocate for a highly pragmatic approach to attribution that first focuses on tactical clustering and operational profiling.

A Stakeholder-led Approach to Cyber Attribution

Nearly one year ago, Russia invaded Ukraine, and we continue to see cyber operations play a prominent role in the war. To provide more insights into the role of cyber, we released Fog of War: How the Ukraine Conflict Transformed the Cyber Threat Landscape Report based on analysis from Google’s Threat Analysis Group (TAG), Mandiant, now part of Google Cloud, and Google Trust & Safety.

Join our upcoming webinar to explore new findings, and retrospective insights, across government-backed attackers, information operations (IO), and cybercriminal ecosystem threat actors from the report. 

Highlights include:
- Shifts in Russia’s government-backed attackers tactics and efforts.
- How Moscow has shaped public perception of the war.
- The effects on the Eastern European cybercriminal ecosystem, and how it has changed.

Speakers:
Toni Gidwani, Security Engineering Manager - Google Threat Analysis Group
Tina Tong, Threat Intelligence Analyst - Google Threat Analysis Group
Ben Read, Senior Manager of Threat Analysis - Mandiant, now part of Google Cloud

Fog of War: How the Ukraine Conflict Transformed the Cyber Threat Landscape

This webinar shares examples from actual EMEA incidents to show techniques threat actors use to hinder analysis and hide their trails. We discuss how these techniques work, how to counteract them as an incident response analyst and how to turn them into detection opportunities.

At Mandiant, we are relentless in our mission to ensure all organizations are secure from cyber threats and conﬁdent in their readiness. We continuously review the solutions we offer our customers and revise or create new approaches to confront an ever-changing threat landscape.

Attend this session to learn how Mandiant tries to stay ahead of threat actors and adapt when usual artifacts are not available.

Mandiant Incident Response: Tales from the EMEA Frontlines

Every year we see the threat landscape in EMEA evolve in different ways. While defenders must navigate challenges, their path doesn’t have to be so uncertain. By studying the trends we see today in EMEA, we can paint a clearer picture of the battles we expect to be fighting in the coming year.

To help organizations be prepared for 2023 so they can improve their cyber readiness, Mandiant threat expert Dr. Jamie Collier covers many of the EMEA-focused topics discussed in Mandiant Cyber Security Forecast 2023, including:

• Europe may surpass the U.S. as the most-targeted region for ransomware
• Russian cyber risks likely to continue to be high-tempo and high-impact
• Iranian actors may increase in escalating attacks due to rising internal turmoil
• Information operations likely to continue to increase in tempo, with unclear impact
• Cyber insurance may restrict access and coverage
• Extortion actors likely to continue to eschew ransomware in favor of pure extortion through data theft

Mandiant EMEA Cyber Security Forecast 2023

Join Dr Jamie Collier who will prise open today's information operation landscape. We have traditionally focused on only a narrow subset of information operations and with the majority of attention concerned about Russian interference in electoral processes. Yet, today's information operation landscape demonstrates that there is now a greater variety of players involved, a wider spread of victims, and a rich spectrum of aims and objectives. 

This webinar will explore how the landscape has evolved and the links between information operations and cyber security.

Ransomware Series - Part Three.

Adversaries behind ransomware are targeting organisations of all size and industries. Ransomware encrypts your critical data and can bring your organization to a halt. Mitigation strategies start with awareness and prevention. Learn about today’s #1 cyber threat from frontline experts to understand if your security controls can prevent a ransomware attack. 

In this webinar, the final one of the ransomware series, a panel of senior Mandiant intelligence analysts and validation engineers share their perspectives on the latest and most relevant ransomware as well as best practices on safely testing prevention capabilities with repurposed real ransomware.

This session covers how to:
- Understand how Mandiant FLARE experts analyse, dissect and repurpose the most notorious ransomware families
- Evaluate the efficacy of your endpoint security controls using the repurposed ransomware
- Capture evidence of effective ransomware prevention with contextualised threat intelligence and data-driven reporting.

Ransomware Series - Part Two

Mandiant responds to hundreds of ransomware intrusions each year across the globe. In this session, our EMEA incident responders will describe a typical ransomware breach and share tradecraft employed by criminals to compromise networks, steal data, deploy ransomware, and extort victims. We will also share common challenges organisations face when responding to a breach.

Attendees will learn:

• How criminals are compromising victim organisations
• Tradecraft employed by attackers within victim networks
• Common challenges faced by organisations when responding and recovering to a successful ransomware intrusion

Ransomware Series - Part One. 

Join Mandiant Consulting and Threat Intelligence expert, Dr Jamie Collier, for a strategic overview on how ransomware has developed within the EMEA region over the past 12 months. We will explore how ransomware has emerged as a key threat to organisation's, from small or medium enterprises through to global multinationals and will also cover various trends including the rise of multi-faceted extortion, post compromise ransomware deployment and soliciting insider threats.
 
Attendees will learn about:
 
• The rise in ransomware targeting virtualization infrastructure
• How different cyber criminal groups are increasingly working together
