3 Open-Source Tools to Unleash the Power of Threat Hunting with Network Data

Like a high-stakes game of cat and mouse, new cyber threats continue to pop-up worldwide. Legacy security measures are no longer enough to protect our digital assets, and security teams can no longer rely on endpoint detection as their only source of intel. They say the best defense is a good offense, and that's why proactive threat hunting has emerged as an essential approach for cyber security. In this session, Phil Owens, Stamus Networks' Vice President of Customer Solutions, will explain how security teams can take threat hunting to the next level by combining network data with open-source tools. Phil will demonstrate how these advanced tools have been used to detect threats that otherwise could have gone unnoticed.
