About this talk

In the worlds of incident response and forensics, we live in the analysis of data. But are our conclusions following a scientific process or just a gut feeling? This talk will explore various cases where the gut feeling wasn't the best way to analyze a security event and the consequences that came from an improper analysis. We'll also explore possible methods that put ego aside and look for the right answers. Critical thinking and scientific processes will be looked at in depth, as well as ways to show organizations that ignorance is not such a bad thing. Learning Objectives: - Understand why it's important to apply sound processes to incident response, yet also include creative thinking. - Understand how to implement critical thinking and scientific methodology to security event analyses. - Realize instant value in higher quality security event analyses.
