SANS Data Breach Summit Chair, Benjamin Wright and SANS Fellow, Hal Pomeranz, will cover two topics related to data breach scenarios.

Incident or Data Breach: How Do You Know?
Presented by Hal Pomeranz

Not all incidents are created equal. The Incident Response Team is often under pressure to say whether the incident included a significant breach of personal or proprietary data. Hal will look at network and host data for markers that show when the incident du jour becomes something more significant.


Incident or Data Breach: Maintaining Confidentiality
Presented by Benjamin Wright

It is not uncommon for a security team to investigate an incident and learn that in fact it is not serious. But some investigations of incidents discover they are serious breaches of data security, which must be reported under law or contract requirements. Often times these investigations should remain legally confidential. Mr. Wright will explain methods for ensuring confidentiality."
