During the event SANS will also give a presentation on its brand new FOR578 - Cyber Threat Intelligence course that is now officially out of BETA and already selling out at venues in the U.S. and Europe.

8:45am - 9:30am | How to Build a World-Class Threat Intelligence Capability From Scratch Threat intelligence is a broad subject and the natural tendency is to produce intelligence on any topic or event regardless of its applicability to the company. True success in threat intelligence depends on focusing intelligence efforts to very specific business objectives, which removes the large surface area and leaves only a challenging sliver of ultra-high value to pursue. This presentation will reveal critical concepts and practical details, where necessary, to produce a world-class threat intelligence capability from scratch. Levi Gundert, Vice President of Threat Intelligence, RecordedFuture |
9:30am - 10:15am | Panel Discussion: Challenges Facing the Threat Intelligence Industry This panel will focus on insights from the expert members on what challenges face the threat intelligence industry today and how they might impact the community. Threat intelligence is an extremely useful capability but is often misunderstood and mislabeled. More so, some vendors have promised threat intelligence will serve as a silver bullet for security. This panel will focus on dispelling the hype and focusing on the value of threat intelligence. Moderator: Panelists: |
