Artificial intelligence is rapidly reshaping the cybersecurity landscape, giving attackers new ways to automate, scale, and personalize cyberattacks while providing defenders powerful tools to detect and respond faster than ever. Join Steve Piper, CEO of CyberEdge and Editor-in-Chief of Security Buzz, as he explores how AI is being used on both sides of the threat equation and what this escalating arms race means for organizations. Attendees will learn how AI-driven threats such as advanced phishing, deepfakes, and automated malware are changing attacker tactics, as well as how security teams can leverage AI for threat detection, response, and risk reduction. The session will highlight practical considerations for preparing defenses as AI continues to transform the future of cybersecurity.

Join us for a deep dive into Certified in Cybersecurity (CC), the entry-level cybersecurity credential from ISC2, creator of the CISSP. Cyberthreats continue to escalate worldwide, and the need for cybersecurity experts is critical. But talent is scarce. Research shows the workforce needs an influx of 3.4 million cybersecurity professionals to meet global demand. ISC2 seeks to help close the skills gap with CC by opening opportunities in the industry to a new pool of professionals. With no experience required, it creates a clear pathway and breaks down traditional barriers to entry, enabling candidates to build confidence and enter their first cybersecurity role ready for what’s next. In this 60-minute live virtual session, you’ll learn: - If CC is right for you - How Official ISC2 Training flexes with your learning style - What to expect on exam day - How to maintain your certification Plus!

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

How to Protect All Surfaces and Services in the AWS Cloud Multiple layers of defense are required to protect your AWS environment. The first step is to reduce your overall attack surface to reduce exposure, in ways such as hardening your Amazon EC2 operating systems and configuring your containers. Organizations can then implement tools, such as a cloud security posture management (CSPM) solutions, to monitor and manage risk. In this prerecorded webcast, SANS instructor Dave Shackleford and AWS Marketplace explore best practices and provide practical guidance on how you can secure your entire AWS footprint. They will also present real-world use cases and examples of tools you can leverage to protect your investments. Attendees at this webcast will learn how to:Decrease their attack surface to limit exposureProtect their AWS environment with configuration management, real-time assessment, and access control mechanisms.Implement automation for monitoring and continuous protectionLeverage AWS services and seller solutions in AWS Marketplace to protect AWS services and surfaces Register today to be among the first to receive the associated whitepaper written by SANS senior instructor and cloud security expert Dave Shackleford.WebinarCloud Security Presented: 28 Jul 2020 Technical Presentation View details

How Are Remote Workers Working? A SANS Poll Remote work has quickly become the \new normal" with the COVID-19 pandemic. Organizations have been forced to rethink how they will get work done with their employees mandated to stay home. 'How are organizations handling working from home? How well were companies prepared for remote work? How have technological needs changed with this shift? How are teams communicating? How are devices and communications being secured? When a time like this does not allow for the mission to halt, employees and employers have scrambled to keep the work going. 'Ensuring that teams are equipped, communicating, and are safe at home is key during this time.'this webinar, led by Heather Mahalik SANS Senior Instructor, Author and Senior Director of Digital Intelligence at Cellebrite, covers how companies have adjusted to this new landscape as a workforce. How have things changed and how are we coping and keeping the ball rolling forward from home.WebinarCyber Defense Presented: 4 Jun 2020 Technical Presentation View details
