NetWitness: The Russians (and a Horde of Others…) Are Coming!

NetWitness/FS-ISAC:

Google and Operation Aurora opened the eyes of many security teams to the prevalence of “advanced persistent threats” across all sectors and the continuing lack of network intelligence within many organizations regarding the communications of sophisticated miscreants.

Why are good security teams across a wide variety of sectors being taken down by advanced threats? Google and Operation Aurora put everyone on public notice that “advanced persistent threats” or APT represent the most critical operational security risks. Advanced threats are not limited to politically motivated attacks. There is a vast underground marketplace where data regarding your organization and your customers are bought and sold to organized criminal groups, terrorists, and state-sponsored entities around the world. These adversaries are organized, have sophisticated network weapons, and are patient. These threats transcend the ability of preventative security technologies deployed in most organizations. Financial services organizations need real-time network intelligence and local situational awareness regarding these advanced threats, to lower risk and shorten the potential exposure window.

Join the FS-ISAC and NetWitness for this complimentary opportunity to hear Alex Cox, Senior Consultant at NetWitness Corporation, and former lead researcher on the emerging threats analysis and solution development team at a large national bank, discuss how to create a powerful, real-time cyber threat intelligence capability within your organization. Alex will describe the sources of specific fraud, malware, crimeware and data exfiltration threats, and discuss how to move to a more proactive threat intelligence posture. Use this opportunity to gather intelligence on new techniques used by the enemy and methods for using real-time network forensics to lower the risk to your organization.
