The Art of Breach Detection

Today's security operations centers (SOCs) are inundated with an endless stream of alerts, vulnerabilities, and threat intelligence. But the reality is that no matter how large or well-resourced a security operations team, there will always be more work to do. So the next-gen SOC must be calibrated to work smarter, not harder. 

In this webinar you will learn:
•  What are the main inefficiencies in SOC operations.
•  How to use technology to address the inefficiencies.
•  How to use people and processes to address the inefficiencies.

The Next-Gen SOC: Optimizing to Make the Most of Limited Resources

Data breaches increased a staggering 68% in 2021, according to Identity Theft Resource Center's annual report, affecting individuals, municipalities and nation states, businesses large and small, and public utilities and resources. Attacks involving ransomware more than doubled, and the most popular business targets were in manufacturing and utilities. Understanding these trends and anticipating how and why attackers might single out your business operations or employees is critical to mitigation.

How to Keep up with the Cyber Threat Landscape

The bad news? Data breaches now play a role in ransomware and extortion attacks, espionage, cyber fraud, business-email compromise, and more. The good news? As security vendors and internal security teams up their game, threat actions are converging, and threat actors now have only so many initial attack vectors to break in and do bad things.

You must simplify your prevention strategy to develop an effective means to stop data breaches, regardless of the flavor of attack. But how?

Join Nick Cavalancia to explore how you can elevate your data breach prevention strategy by viewing it through the lens of threat actor actions. Topics will include:
• Start with the bad guy and work backwards to strategy.
• Focus on initial attack vectors.
• Translate threat actions into practical prevention strategy.
• Lessons from MITRE’s ATT&CK Framework and industry trends.

Use bad-guy trends, tactics and techniques against them for effective strategy

Breaches happen by clever and well-armed cybercriminals who use many tactics, techniques, and procedures to infiltrate IT infrastructure, implant malware, and execute attacks. There is a lot at stake, so you need to know as much as possible with little or no delay to minimize adverse consequences.

Network monitoring that pipelines packets from the core network to cybersecurity analysts and analytics is the foundation of detecting and responding. Stealth is an often-used weapon, so monitoring with the highest possible fidelity is necessary to detect increasingly subtle Indicators of Attack and Indicators of Compromise.

This webinar will provide a stepwise plan for achieving faster breach detection and maximizing resilience to cyber risks by showing you how to: 
 
• Instrument any network, physical, virtual, hybrid-cloud, for high-fidelity monitoring to losslessly acquire and reliably deliver network packet data to SOC and SecOps security analysts and the analytics and tools they use
• Capture, store, and organize network packet data for use as security evidence 
• Forensically analyze security evidence to facilitate a rapid and effective response

Faster Breach Detection

Cyberattacks against healthcare jumped 42% in 2020 and another 35% in 2021. 

Successful cyberattacks disrupt healthcare operations, delay access to clinical services, and lead to significant economic loss. Stolen patient records can be used to commit fraud and identity theft, disrupting patients’ personal lives. 

Medical information is an attractive target because it has high economic value on the black market.
