 Are you registered for HP Protect 2013?  Can you come?  I hope to see you there
  • at my LOGbinder booth
  • and at my breakout session #1488 – “Setting traps for malicious outsiders and APTs on your network”

HP Protect is next month September 16-19 in Washington, D.C.  It’s a great event for infosec professionals tasked with monitoring networks and detecting intrusions. 

Here’s more information on my session:

Think outside the box with well-known security log expert Randy Franklin Smith as he argues that we’ve been going about catching bad guys the wrong way. Trying to detect malicious activity by defining what makes it an anomaly is difficult. So turn the concept on its head and make malicious activity stand out as intentional and not a one-time event. In this session, instead of looking for hints of malicious activity and weeding through false positives, Randy will show you how to set up traps throughout your network and applications that automatically distinguish between normal insider activity and malicious outsiders or APTs – even if the attacker is running under the credentials of a legitimate user. The principles are applicable to any technology, but Randy will specifically demonstrate laying traps in Windows, SQL Server, and SharePoint. You will also learn how to deal with the end-user awareness and admin pushback challenges that may arise when implementing traps

What is HP Protect?

It is HP’s annual security user conference. It began as an ArcSight conference and, after HP acquired ArcSight, evolved into a comprehensive, pan-HP security conference that delivers technical content, product roadmaps, demos, instruction, and services to users of HP, HP ArcSight, HP Atalla, HP Fortify, and HP TippingPoint software.
