DeepSec 2014 „Do you want to know more?“,
Unknown date/time
(Unknown duration)
The current security operations model is an alert-driven one. Alerts contain a snapshot of a moment in time and lack important context, making it difficult to qualify the true nature of an alert in a reasonable amount of time. On the other hand, narratives provide a more complete picture of what occurred and tell the story of what unfolded over a period of time. Ultimately, only the narrative provides the required context and detail to allow an organization to make an educated decision regarding whether or not incident response is required, and if so, at what level. This talk presents the Narrative-Driven Model for incident response.
