From intel to action: Cut supply chain risk with critical data intelligence

Threat intelligence -- collecting data about broad trends in online attacks -- helps security teams improve their defences by identifying online exploits that have the potential to hit their organisations and to prioritise their security resources accordingly. 

But how should your team go about collecting threat intelligence? How do you correlate this intelligence with your own internal cybersecurity telemetry to determine which attacks to worry about? In this webinar, experts offer advice and recommendations on how to collect threat intel, how to analyse it, and how to use it to build a stronger cyber defence.

During this webinar you will: 

• Get tips on where to look for hidden troves of threat intelligence data.
• Find out best practices for how to identify valuable threat intelligence.
• Hear from experts about how integrate threat intelligence into an overall cybersecurity strategy.

Why Threat Intelligence Makes Sense for Your Enterprise Security Strategy

Every day, threat actors register thousands of domains meant for phishing, command and control (C2), data exfiltration and other malicious activities.
 
Against this backdrop, it’s now more important than ever for threat intelligence teams to gain enhanced visibility of domain and DNS_based cyber threats, combined with the context needed to deliver actionable intelligence quickly to help reduce risk.
 
In this live presentation, Lead Threat Intelligence Solutions Architect Kevin Libby of Silobreaker and Tim Helming, Security Evangelist at DomainTools will demonstrate how Silobreaker and Domain Tools can simplify and accelerate investigations by extending crucial enrichment data to provide a seamless workflow for cyber security investigators.
 
Delving into malicious infrastructure, they will discuss aspects such as the tactics and techniques used to further threat actors’ agendas.
 
You’ll leave this presentation with an understanding of:

●   The necessity of collecting DNS data to defend your systems
●   DomainTools Iris Detect and the ways it provides clearer situational awareness around emerging adversary infrastructure
●   DomainTools Risk Scores and the benefits of predictive risk scoring, seamlessly presented in Silobreaker
●   How the tactics and techniques illicit actors have used to further their agendas highlighted in Silobreaker can bring context to the DNS data discovered in DomainTools

Safeguarding your organisation against DNS Threats

When it comes to threat intelligence, collecting the right data about emerging trends in online attacks takes centre stage. Actionable threat intelligence helps security leaders improve their defences by identifying exploits targeting their organisations and prioritising security resources accordingly.

But how should you go about collecting threat intelligence? How do you correlate this intelligence with your own internal cybersecurity telemetry to make it actionable – so you can prioritise which risks to mitigate first?

In this webinar, Andy Grayland, CISO at Silobreaker, and guest speaker Brian Wrozek, Principal Analyst at Forrester Research, will offer advice and real-life examples on how to collect, analyse and use threat intel to build stronger cyber defences.

During this webinar, you will:

•  Get tips on how to collect a diverse source of threat intel to deliver actionable intelligence
•  Find out best practices on how to prioritise emerging threats for strategic planning
•  Hear from experts about how to integrate threat intelligence into your overall cybersecurity strategy

How security intelligence helps leaders make risk-based decisions

Over the past year, cyber threats have continued to plague organisations of all types. From geopolitical conflicts such as the war in Ukraine to the increased use of social engineering techniques by adversaries, cyber threat intelligence (CTI) professionals have had a challenging time providing actionable intelligence to their consumers.

On this webcast, we’ll review insights from this year’s SANS CTI Survey, including both the changing threats as well as the processes analysts use to address the current threat landscape.

Ransomware attacks can have severe consequences, not only for the targeted organisation but also for their customers and suppliers. 
Yet, according to recent Silobreaker research, there is nearly a month and a half delay (43 days) between an initial attack and victim disclosure, on average.

Join Silobreaker analysts Hannah Baumgaertner and Peter Kroyer Bramson for our webinar on 28th June at 16.00 BST | 11.00 EST to learn about: 

• The latest trends in victimology and threat actors targeting organisations
• How gaps in disclosure can put organisations at risk across the supply chain
• Best practices for faster ransomware attack remediation using open-source intelligence insights

New ransomware research findings: Latest trends and intelligence best practices

Not all fraud is cybercrime, but many cybercrimes involve fraudulent activities.

While fraud and cybercrime are related concepts, they are not identical. Understanding the differences can help organisations develop more targeted strategies to prevent and respond to these threats. Fraud prevention depends on effective intelligence gathering, yet few firms have the tools or personnel to collect and analyse at scale.

In this talk, Kevin Libby, Lead Intelligence Solution Architect at Silobreaker, will use examples gathered from OSINT and discuss typical tactics, techniques, and procedures cybercriminals use to perpetrate fraud. Additionally, a light will be shined on industries that are most vulnerable to cyber fraud and what types they are experiencing.

Finally, we'll provide some key areas businesses and organisations should consider monitoring to identify potential cyber threats and fraudulent activities.

Fraud prevention with open-source intelligence (OSINT)

Open-Source Intelligence (OSINT) has become increasingly important to organisations looking to identify potential risks and vulnerabilities early, whether phishing, malware or the latest ransomware attack.

But given the enormous volume of OSINT sources – many with inherent bias or inaccuracies – how can threat intelligence teams best wade through false, slanted or misleading information, to create reports that decision-makers can rely on to prioritise and respond to threats and risks?

Open source intelligence requires a combination of automation and the human element to sort out the important from the unimportant, the timely from the outdated, the relevant from the irrelevant, and the trusted from the untrusted.

Join Kevin Libby, Threat Intelligence Advisor in this webinar to learn the tools and tactics to solve the top 3 open source intelligence challenges, and respond more quickly to attacks that put your organisation at risk.

- Shift from a manual approach and automate data collection and aggregation to save time and uncover critical intelligence at speed 
- Determine Open-Source accuracy, credibility, timeliness, and objectivity more efficiently and effectively to keep your organisation safe from risk
- Make faster, more relevant connections between different types of risk intelligence to gain strategic advantage when responding to threats

Tools and Tactics to solve the top 3 Open-Source Intelligence (OSINT) Challenges

Conflicts, pandemics, elections, and nation-state agendas frequently serve as the backdrop for cyberattacks, creating new opportunities for cyber-attackers to weaponise these events and increase their impact.

As Russian and Chinese threats intensify, bolstered by AI (Artificial Intelligence) developments and upcoming elections, it’s now more critical than ever that organisations integrate geopolitical intelligence into their cyber threat intelligence programs.

Join RANE Analyst and Silobreaker Senior Product Manager who will explore the latest geopolitical trends and emerging cybercrime attacks in today’s threat landscape.

You will learn:
• How the ongoing conflict in Ukraine is impacting global security
• Why the rise of China as a global power has implications for the US and its allies
• Where the growing threat of cyberwarfare is putting critical infrastructure at risk

Combining a range of perspectives, this webinar will provide insights and actionable advice that intelligence teams can use to identify, anticipate, and prepare for the critical risks ahead.
