Title: How behavioral analytics can stop the cyber cat-and-mouse game

CPE Credits: 1 hour

Abstract:

Over the past few years, the “cat-and-mouse game” between defenders and cyber threat actors has become heated as ever. As both cyber criminals and nation-state threat actors continue to adopt more sophisticated tactics to evade detection, the tools necessary to defend against them must also evolve. In this session, Morgan discussed several case studies where IronNet’s behavioral analytics detected threats before their impact was too great. In addition to gaining insight into some threat actors and malware to keep an eye on in 2022, attendees learned how advanced analytics and collective defense provide value through the entire attack chain.

Morgan Demboski is a Threat Intelligence Analyst at IronNet Cybersecurity. Holding a Master’s degree in Intelligence and Security Studies and a Graduate Certificate in Intelligence Analysis, Morgan has written several articles on the ever-changing cyber threat landscape and the value of behavioral analytics in detecting increasingly sophisticated threats.
