Detecting Malicious Activity in Large Enterprises Modern enterprises are extremely diverse and complex. Yet, security data collection, correlation, and analysis has not kept up with these complexities. It often seems like organizations collect too much without ever truly finding value in the vast amounts of data they have amassed. In this webcast, SANS author Matt Bromiley and Chronicle Security's Dr. Anton Chuvakin focus on concepts to effectively detect malicious activity within large enterprises. They will review how to bring giga-/tera-/petabytes togethers, correlating them into actionable intel by using YARA-L to craft efficient detections that can be used across these vast data sets. The webcast will help attendees answer important questions such as:In your current state, how much data are you ingesting/analyzing?How is your team writing detections? What types of metadata points are they looking for?How do you detect threats?Can you effectively scale detections across your data sets?How do you manage the lifecycle of those detections, tune them, keep them relevant, remove them when no longer relevant?

How to Improve Threat Detection and Hunting in the AWS Cloud Using the MITRE ATT&CK Matrix Understanding adversary tactics and techniques based on real-world observations are critical to building more effective threat detection and hunting capabilities. The context provided by data sources is what enables us to make actionable decisions. Still, it is limited to what raw data inputs we consume, as well as consuming enough of the right data to be able to mitigate, remediate and prevent future adversary activity. However, detecting malicious events is not the final solution to thwarting adversaries. Actions need to be taken, whether they are operational (e.g., stopping a malicious process) or strategic (e.g., securing an environment to prevent the execution of malicious processes). In this webinar, SANS and AWS Marketplace will discuss the exercise of applying the MITRE ATT&CK Matrix to the AWS Cloud. They will also explore how to enhance threat detection and hunting in an AWS environment to maintain a strong security posture. Attendees will learn how to:Apply the MITRE ATT&CK Matrix to classify and understand cloud-based techniquesCreate an effective detection strategy and uncover what data sources are requiredBreak down and recognize detections by security product capabilities and data sourcesLeverage threat intel for improved detectionUse AWS services and third-party solutions to support their threat detection and hunting strategy Register today to be among the first to receive the associated whitepaper written by SANS senior instructor and cloud security expert Dave Shackleford.WebinarDigital Forensics and Incident Response Presented: 1 Sep 2020 Technical Presentation View details
Closing the Critical Skills Gap for Modern and Effective Security Operations Centers (SOCs): Survey Results Any successful security operations center (SOC) will combine skilled people, effective processes and efficient technology. Previous SANS surveys have shown that the skills of the people are the prime prerequisite to enable organizations to define critical SOC processes; create use cases, hypotheses and plans; architect effective security solutions; and efficiently deploy, operate and maintain security systems. From that skills base, sophisticated technology and tools can be used as a force multiplier. CISOs and SOC managers who can reduce or close their critical skills gaps have the highest probability of minimizing business impact from cyberattacks when budgets and staffing are constrained. Webcast attendees will learn:Where hiring managers turn when sourcing potential new hiresWhich skill areas are most sought afterWhat technologies employers wish new hires had hands-on experience usingWhich security technologies are perceived as enabling organizations to delay or mitigate the need for additional staff Register today to be among the first to receive the associated whitepaper written by SANS Director of Emerging Security Trends, John Pescatore.
