Large organisations face a particular challenge when it comes to mitigating threats originating from both within and outside of the enterprise. Organisational complexity, low security staff to employee ratios, a rapidly changing threat landscape and compliance all add to a big headache for beleaguered security staff.

During this web seminar we’ll be looking at how intelligence-based analytical security techniques can automate many of the mundane tasks of a SOC Analyst, leaving security professionals to do what they do best – focus on the problems that require using human intuition and creativity, looking to the future, and considering the strategic needs of the business over the medium to long term.

  • Security operations centres (SOCs) – do you need one?
  • Insider threats – how to baseline ‘normal’ and monitor irregular activity
  • Combining machine learning and AI for increased effectiveness and automated response
  • Dealing with the downside – false positives and configuration
  • The role of cloud-based solutions
