Continuous Ownage: Why you Need Continuous Monitoring
Abstract:
Repeat after me, I will be breached. Most organizations realize this fact too late, usually after a third party informs them months after the initial compromise. Treating security monitoring as a quarterly auditing process means most compromises will go undetected for weeks or months. The attacks are continuous, and the monitoring must match.
This talk will help you face this problem and describe how to move your organization to a more defensible security architecture that enables continuous security monitoring.
