Thought Leadership Presentation

Marketing often emphasizes the "rapidly changing, sophisticated threat landscape," but what does this mean? Is it as chaotic as it sounds? This presentation explores why your expectations of a rapidly changing, sophisticated threat landscape may not align with incident response data.

We will identify which parts of the threat landscape are rapidly changing and discuss how this disconnect could impact your organization's ability to detect and respond to incidents. Following this analysis, we will provide a framework for understanding changes in the threat landscape in a way that enhances your incident response and threat hunting capabilities.

Key Takeaways

  • Not all change is chaotic: Understand the difference between marketing hype and reality.
  • Focus on data-driven insights: Use incident response data to guide security strategies.
  • Optimize incident response: Improve your ability to detect and respond to emerging and persistent threats.

This presentation is a must-attend for cybersecurity professionals looking to better understand adversaries' tactics and improve their organization's resilience against evolving threats. Don't miss the opportunity to learn from a leading expert in the field and arm yourself with the knowledge needed to outmaneuver sophisticated cyber attackers.
