Hackfest 2016,
Nov. 4, 2016, 10 a.m.
(60 minutes).
How about this: a blue team talk given by red teamers. But here's our rationale - your best defence right now is a strategic offence. The rules of the game have changed and we need to get defence up to speed.
We'll show you what the key elements are in a good defence strategy; what you can and need to be using to full advantage. We'll talk about the new "buzzwords" and how they apply: visibility; patterns; big data. There's a whole lotta data to wrangle, and you aren't seeing the whole picture if you aren't doing things right. Threat intel is about getting the big picture as it applies to you. You'll learn the importance of context and prioritization so that you can manipulate intel feeds to do your bidding. And then we'll take things further and talk about hunting the adversary, using an update on proven methodologies.
We'll show you how to understand your data, correlate threats and pin point attacks. Attendees will leave with a new understanding of the resources they have on hand, and how to leverage those into an Adaptive Proactive Defense Strategy.
