The Best Defense Is An Offense-Informed Defense - Seguridad Mania.com - España y América Latina

In this session, you will learn how an offense-informed defense approach will enable your security team to cut through the noise, be more effective at both identifying the most likely and riskiest attacks and thwarting them faster at less cost. We will discuss how to understand not only the attack vectors, the attackers’ tactics, techniques and procedures but also the residual effects so that, in an environment of almost immeasurable alerts and alarms, your team can focus on the indicators that are the most important.
