Jeffrey Baez (Speaker) Security Advisor, Splunk
Description
Advanced persistent threats are a risk to critical infrastructure, businesses, education institutions, social media networks and more. This means our way of life is at risk. Without data analytics, it is virtually impossible to understand when advanced threat actors have a foothold on a network. Their tactics are stealthy and uncommon. Fortunately, security teams have a bevy of tools at their disposal to protect the business and respond to threats, but it’s a race against the clock.
The best tools allow security teams to analyze large data sets, detect malicious network activity, and respond to threats across environments quickly and more accurately than others. Splunk is a leader in the industry because it offers a data analytics platform that provides production models for outlier and anomaly detection, baselining, predictive analytics and clustering. We will discuss the practical application of Splunk to secure an environment against the harsh presence that lurks on the Internet.
