Two years ago, artificial intelligence (AI) was primarily a buzzword, but the times have changed quickly! The rapid integration of artificial intelligence in multiple sectors has revolutionized operational efficiency, data analytics, and automation. Join us for our SANS HackFest Solutions Track, when we'll dive into AI-focused solutions and explore how leading cybersecurity companies are implementing AI into their offerings. This track will fe...

For people who don't work in a SOC, or in cybersecurity at all, the image of a cybersecurity operations center is that of an all-seeing, all-knowing marvel of technology. For those of us who work in a SOC, we know the technology requires constant care and maintenance to preserve visibility into the systems we're protecting. If we can preserve that visibility, we then strive to deploy appropriate and effective detections. Once we've tuned those...

Going from responding to incidents to actively hunting threats is a stance shift that requires maturity in your cybersecurity journey. It also requires having access to the right threat intelligence, the right visibility across your environment, as well as the right tools to do the job. Advances in data science and artificial intelligence can help organizations bridge the maturity gap, but we shouldn’t forget that it’s ultimately a...

In an era where cyber threats constantly evolve and the boundaries of organizations become increasingly porous, the principle of "Never Trust, Always Verify" has become more relevant than ever. The Zero Trust Solutions Forum 2024 aims to bring together top industry vendors to shed light on the newest developments, technologies, and best practices in the realm of Zero Trust. Participants will gain invaluable insights into: Emerging Technologies...

Cloud services rapidly evolve as the result of incessant agile software delivery, but so do cloud customers. Previous SANS surveys have identified mergers and acquisitions as a major reason that cloud customers have started using a new cloud service provider and use multiple single sign-on solutions. Leadership changes can create a lack of consistency. Lack of architectural guidance may also leave different teams within a company going off in...

As cloud security controls mature, it’s common to find that a wide variety of security controls and configuration capabilities are melding into a single platform or service fabric, in addition to the cloud provider infrastructure. Ranging from CNAPP to CSPM to CWPP and beyond, controls that cover the pipeline, workload security, cloud environment configuration, IaC templates, and runtime (and much more) are starting to evolve into a much...
