(30 minutes).
The Netflix Detection and Response Team (D&R) has grown out of the unique Netflix culture and technology stacks. We seek to make our team central to a learning security organization while buying down risk across a broad range of known and unknown threats. To achieve this we are leveraging big data related concepts to predict incident workload and look for trends over time.
In this talk, we will show how we used Pandas and Seaborn in Python to uncover patterns and trends in our security incident data, and how to create a forecast of future incidents using Prophet. The goal of the talk is to give the audience insights into what we learned and how we are applying this data to grow our incident response capabilities through engineering and new approaches as opposed to large multi-tiered SOCs with linear staffing requirements.
