Rapid technological evolution requires security that is resilient, up-to-date, and adaptable. In this webinar, Asaf Perlman, Incident Response Leader at Cynet, will explain how DFIR (digital forensics and incident response) has transformed and present a real-life scenario investigation, highlighting the digital forensics aspect and how XDR fits into the picture.

DFIR via XDR – Master the art of Incident Response with a powerful XDR

Security teams at small to mid-sized enterprises are given a nearly impossible task - protect the organization from an onslaught of advancing cyber threats with a limited budget, limited security technology, and an understaffed (and often underskilled) security team. Yet day in and day out, these teams are continually thwarting highly sophisticated and coordinated attacks by a global network of cybercriminals.

What we often overlook is the toll this cyberwar is taking on our front-line leaders.  We may think that the job of a CISO at a small to mid-sized organization is stressful, but just how stressful is it?  And what are the implications of this stress? Join George Tubin, Director of Product Strategy to delve into a Cynet’s recently sponsored “Implications of Stress on CISOs” survey, including:

•   The prevalence and main sources of CISO stress
•   The effects of stress on a CISO’s job performance and personal life
•   What CISOs say would help reduce job stress

CISO Stress - The Implications of Fighting the Cyberwar

Extended Detection and Response (XDR) has the potential to dramatically improve efficiency for enterprises with unwieldy security stacks. But, can XDR benefit companies with lean security teams that don’t have same breadth of security technologies as larger enterprises?

Join Jon Oltsik, Senior Principal Analyst with Enterprise Strategy Group (ESG), and George Tubin, Director of Product Strategy at Cynet, for a discussion about how XDR can be a game changer for lean security teams as well.

How The Right XDR Can Be a Game-Changer for Lean Security Teams

Join Ronen Ahdut, Head of Cyber Threat Intelligence at Cynet for a discussion around the methods and threat actors involved in the top breaches in 2022, with a deep dive into the world of infostealers and compromised credentials as the top “Initial access vector”, and how most of the breaches were conducted by teen hackers, sometimes only 14 years old.

Ronen will also provide advice for detecting these newer threats and the ongoing need for human oversight in cybersecurity. 

In this webinar you will learn:
 •  How the top breaches of 2022 unfolded and a deep dive into infostealers
 •  Who was behind the top breaches and their common profile
 •  How to better detect the evolving threat landscape
 •  Why human oversight remains critical to protect your organization

The Rise of the Rookie Hacker - 2022 Trends and 2023 Predictions

Detection doesn’t always mean prevention. You need to know how a hacker thinks if you want to stay ahead of evolving threats. 

Now sure how to get into a hacker’s mindset? Then you won’t want to miss this session!

Our Red Team Researcher, Adam Ben-Ezer, will give you a glimpse into the mindset of a hacker to better understand how you can keep your org safe:

• A hacker’s decision-making process  
• The unique characteristics of many hackers and how they lend to their success 
• The techniques, sub-techniques, and tactics at a hacker’s disposal  
• And, as a bonus, Adam will give us a demonstration of an attack through the lens of the hacker and tips on how you can simulate a similar attack to see if your org is prepared.

Join Cynet’s IR Leader, Asaf Perlman, as he walks through the six phases of Incident Response and shares insights from his extensive experience successfully responding to hundreds of security incidents around the globe. In this webinar you will learn:

• Advice for following each of the six Incident Response phases
• Lessons learned from hundreds of successful IR engagements
• Three key pieces of advice to best prepare for a security incident

Step-by-step approach to tackling an Incident Response

Don’t underestimate the power of playbooks! If your team is struggling to keep up with never-ending alerts; you aren’t alone. That’s why IT and security teams are increasingly turning to automation to keep their orgs safe.

Playbooks relieve the manual burden of threat investigation by automatically determining the root cause and scope of an attack. Thanks to automated playbooks, lean and overwhelmed IT teams can make sure that every threat is investigated – without forcing the team to work 24/7.

Why every lean IT team needs automated playbooks

We asked CISOs of small security teams to talk to us about their pain points and how they’re planning to address these challenges in the year ahead. The goal of the survey was to see what’s changed for CISOs of lean teams since our survey last year, and to understand how they’re dealing with the new and unexpected challenges that arose this year.

When comparing the two survey results, it’s clear that there’s a significant shift in the way small security teams are evolving their strategies. We're seeing a change in the technologies they rely on as well as increased pain points around the risk of overlapping technologies and lack of visibility into the environment.

George Tubin, Cynet’s Director of Product Strategy, does a deep dive on the 2022 survey results and discusses:

* The background of the survey and its methodology
* Top key findings
* Where CISOs are investing their budgets
* Top 10 breach prevention tech in use vs. what is being planned for
* The top challenges for small security teams
And more

2022 CISO Survey of Small Security Teams

Business reliance on Cloud and SaaS services has increased dramatically over the past few years, and the positive impact on organizations is clear. Many organizations rely on several to dozens of cloud-based technologies for mission critical business services.  Along with the many benefits provided, these services do introduce some critical risks to organizations that may not have the expertise or resources to fully manage them.  

Join Shai Kariv, Cynet Director of Product and George Tubin, Cynet Director of Product Strategy to gain insights into the risks introduced by Cloud and SaaS services and simple steps you can take to mitigate the risks, including:

- How CSPM and SSPM offer you greater visibility into the risks introduced by your Cloud and SaaS ecosystem 
- How you can easily assess your security posture across all of your Cloud and SaaS providers and correct configuration errors with a single click 
- How CSPM and SSPM helps you assess and achieve regulatory compliance

The Easy Way to Reduce the Risk of Cloud and SaaS Services

Cybersecurity can be described as a marathon for security teams as they spend most of their time building defenses that offer sustained protection from threats every day. However, they must be ready to sprint and answer an immediate threat to avoid dragging out the response and exposing their organization to more damage.  

That’s easy for large enterprises with seemingly unlimited resources, but what about lean IT security teams without that luxury? Fortunately, speeding time to response is a real, and very achievable goal.

How Lean Security Teams Can Improve Their Time to Response

Threat visibility involves what seems like contradictory aims. On one hand, security teams need visibility into an ever expanding attack surface populated by new and evolving threats. That generally means more alarms. The second requirement for threat visibility is the ability to rank and filter alarms by importance. In that way, security teams need to know more but respond less – an inversion of the current situation.

Join Anthony Roberts, Cynet Sales Engineering Manager and George Tubin, Cynet Director of Product Marketing to learn how any security team, even the leanest ones, can affordably expand threat visibility while limiting false alarms to see cyberattacks earlier and more clearly

How to See More, But Respond Less with Enhanced Threat Visibility

The increasing volume and sophistication of cyberattacks have naturally led many companies to invest in additional cybersecurity technologies. We know that expanded threat detection capabilities are necessary for protection, but they have also led to several unintended consequences. The "more is not always better" adage fits this situation perfectly.

This webinar sheds light on alert overload, the result of too many alerts. Beyond discussing the stress and strain placed on cybersecurity teams trying to sift through an ongoing barrage of threat alerts, we will show how this situation actually degrades cybersecurity effectiveness. We will talk about the way out – something important to almost every company suffering from alert overload.
