Herding Cats or Managing Security, which Challenge is Greater? by Mark Hofman, SANS Certified Instructor To many both tasks will seem impossible, but they do not have to be. As a consultant into many different types of organizations it is remarkable how many of them face exactly the same issues, regardless of the industry, regardless of whether they are public or private companies. One of the main issues we see is that teams, whilst trying their hardest, just cannot get ahead of the game. They are stuck in the vicious cycle of identifying problems, fixing problems, identifying problems, fixing problems, and so on. In the time available we will explore what some of these challenges are and what others have done in order to resolve the problem. We will also talk about some of the critical security functions that must be in place in order to defend your networks and keep your data where it should be. Hopefully resulting in less grey hair, more sleep, and herded cats. Super Timeline Analysis by Hal Pomeranz, SANS Faculty Fellow Super Timeline Analysis will completely change the way you approach Digital Forensics. Forever. And the tools are free! Temporal data is located everywhere on a computer system. File system MAC times, log files, network data, registry data, internet history files and file metadata all contain time data that can be correlated into critical analysis to successfully solve cases. But forensic analysts must master a variety of operating systems, investigation techniques, and incident response tactics to solve challenging cases. Until recently, timeline analysis frameworks have not existed to easily allow multiple examinations of time based data into a single framework that is easily analyzed by investigators. Timeline analysis has changed the way many of us approach complex cases. It helps uncover additional indicators of compromise and aids in identifying when anti-forensic techniques have been used. Learn how to get started with this technology, and see how timeline analysis can streamline your investigations and give you comprehensive visibility into system activity.
