Cyberint is now a Check Point Company. Its impactful intelligence solution combines cyber threat intelligence, external attack surface management, brand protection, and digital supply chain intelligence into a single, powerful solution. By leveraging autonomous discovery of all of an organization’s external-facing assets, coupled with open, deep & dark web intelligence, the solution enables cybersecurity teams to accelerate the detection and disruption of their most pressing cyber risks. Global customers, including Fortune 500 leaders across all major market verticals, rely on us to prevent, detect, investigate, and remediate phishing, malware, fraud, brand abuse, data leaks, external vulnerabilities, and more, ensuring continuous external protection from cyber threats.

Enterprise Security Operations teams must understand the threat landscape in which they operate: the specific threats affecting their industry and region, the threat actors who are most likely to target them, and the tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) used by those bad actors. Threat Modeling helps SOC teams to shift from a theoretical understanding of the threat landscape to a more tangible analysis of the specific attacks their organization is most likely to face. 

In this session, Leo Sojref, Solution Architect for External Risk Management at Check Point, will discuss how to conduct strategic Threat Modeling and how it helps SOC Managers and other Information Security leaders to proactively defend against the most probable cyber attacks. By leveraging advanced cyber threat intelligence-- including an understanding of the threat groups most active in a particular sector or geographic region, as well as the TTPs and IOCs of each group-- cyber defenders can increase security preparedness, optimize defenses against the attacks they're likely to face, and reduce the risk of a major cyber incident.

Operationalizing Threat Intelligence, Part III:  Threat Modeling & Security Preparedness

Incident response and threat hunting have a lot in common: they are typically components of a mature cyber program, they require access to high-fidelity threat intelligence data, and they provide significant value in terms of cyber risk reduction. The difference? With incident response, the team knows that a cyber incident has taken place. With threat hunting, the team hypothesizes that an incident has taken place but they are not certain.

In this session, Leo Sojref, Solution Architect for External Risk Management at Check Point, will discuss how Incident Response professionals and Threat Hunters can improve their workflows and processes with CTI. Operationalizing threat intelligence as part of DFIR cases helps clearly define the scope of an incident, know which assets were affected, and accelerate mean time to recovery. Similarly, operationalizing threat intel helps Threat Hunters develop a realistic hypothesis, streamline hunting activities and log analysis, and uncover previously undetected threats.

Operationalizing Threat Intelligence, Part II: Threat Hunting & Incident Response

Cyber threat intelligence has become a standard component of the modern Security Operations Center, but many organizations are under-utilizing the CTI they already have access to. Fully operationalizing threat intelligence doesn't just maximize the value of CTI investments - it also helps to detect threats earlier in the kill chain and keeps the enterprise secure.

In this session, Leo Sojref, Solution Architect for External Risk Management at Check Point, will discuss how SOC Managers and other Security Operations leaders can enhance monitoring and detection capabilities with CTI. This will include examples of specific use cases and workflows that increase efficiency, reduce false positives, identify threats faster, and help reduce cyber risk.

Operationalizing Threat Intelligence, Part I: Continuous Monitoring & Threat Detection

Canadians, attend for a chance to win a signed Maple Leafs Jersey! 
The numbers don't lie. According to the Verizon Data Breach Report, a staggering 83% of breaches originate from external threats – think exposed digital assets, compromised credentials floating in the dark web, and damaging brand impersonation. For security teams in Canada, this reality translates into an overwhelming barrage of alerts from disparate tools, demanding more attention than their limited resources can provide.

In this webinar, discover how Check Point's latest acquisition Cyberint offers a powerful antidote to this chaos. We'll delve into how this innovative approach to external risk management delivers focused, actionable threat intelligence and unparalleled visibility across the clear, deep, and dark web. Join us to learn how Canadian organizations can proactively track their external risk landscape, gaining the crucial advantage needed to outpace threat actors and neutralize threats before they materialize into damaging attacks.

Our experts, Peter Gordon, Territory Account Manager, and Ken Towne, Senior Solutions Architect, will guide you through the capabilities of the solution and demonstrate how it can impact your security posture. Join us to learn how to effectively manage your external attack surface and proactively mitigate threats before they impact your Canadian organization.

External Risk Management in Action: Protecting Your Brand in the Deep, Dark & Clear Web

Every large organization is inundated with software vulnerabilities to analyze, prioritize, and remediate. Given the time it takes to patch and update a system while ensuring continuity, it becomes a serious challenge to manage all of these known vulnerabilities.

One approach is leverage AI to proactively test Internet-facing exposures for exploitability. If a vulnerability can be successfully exploited by advanced automation, then it represents a major risk and should be prioritized for immediate remediation. After all, if it can exploited via automation, it would not be difficult for advanced threat actors to find and exploit it themselves. 

In this webinar, Cyberint (now a Check Point Company) Product Manager Nir Ben Eliezer will discuss this new approach and how it is supported by Active Exposure Validation (AEV), a new capability within the Cyberint solution. Nir will explain how this capability is helping customers to drastically reduce cyber risk by identifying and remediating their most critical exposures. 

Join us on Wednesday, March 26th at 10am EST / 3pm CET to learn more about leveraging AI to proactively test your organization's exposures for exploitability and transforming your vulnerability & patch management program.

Validating Cyber Exposures: How To Continuously Test Exposures For Exploitability

Cybersecurity leaders today face a few major challenges when it comes to reporting to stakeholders. 

First, CISOs and other leaders often struggle to demonstrate the value and success of a cyber program. After all, when a cyber program is effective, nothing happens – no breaches, no ransomware attacks, no major incidents that must be reported to regulators and customers. It’s really a case of no news is good news. A second challenge is measuring and reporting on cyber risk. Risk is ultimately a subjective topic with many dimensions and it can be hard to accurately quantify an organization’s level of cyber risk. It’s also difficult to translate a reduction in risk to dollars and cents.

In this webinar, Cyberint Chief Strategy Officer Ophir Bleiberg will dive into these challenges and potential solutions. Ophir will also discuss Cyberint’s approach to measuring cyber risk, which will ultimately help CISOs in having more informed discussions with their stakeholders and demonstrate the value of the cyber program they’re leading.

Join us on Tuesday, December 3rd at 10am EST for strategic insights on measuring and reporting on the success of your cybersecurity efforts.

Die NIS 2-Vorschriften:   Wie man die Einhaltung der neuen Vorschriften sicherstellt

Security operations and threat intelligence teams are responsible for detecting cyber risks but, more often than not, support from other teams within the organization is needed to take mitigation actions. For instance, the SOC team may discover a high-risk CVE but help is needed from a SysAdmin on the IT team to patch the vulnerability. 
 
In this webinar, Cyberint Threat Intelligence Team Lead Anastasia Plotkin will discuss strategies for improving cooperation between cybersecurity teams and other departments. Fostering these relationships isn’t just a good camaraderie—it’s essential for managing cyber risk across the organization. Rather than being seen as a constant source of friction, the cybersecurity team should be seen as trusted partners in a company-wide effort to strengthen security and prevent a breach from taking place.
