Cisco Live 2015 Milan – Security Technology Trend Keynote - Seguridad Mania.com - España y América Latina

Not only have the motives and persistence of attackers increased, but also has their understanding of classic security technologies, applications, and how to exploit the gaps between them. Attackers are indiscriminate as they relentlessly drive their attacks home, frequently using tools that have been developed specifically to circumvent the target’s security infrastructure. They employ a methodical approach to an attack that can be demonstrated as an “attack chain” – the chain of events that leads up to and through the phases of an attack. To truly protect across all attack vectors, we have to accept the nature of modern networked environments and start defending them by understanding how attackers think and what is required to secure our infrastructure. In this session, David Goeckeler will discuss how defenders can think like an attacker to truly employ a threat-centric model of security that is advanced beyond the abilities of the attackers.
