Presentation: Dark Web 101: What Every Security Professional Should Know
Tuesday • 11:15AM - 11:55AM
• Room: Johnny Blood/Willie Davis Room
Abstract
The Dark Web combined with Bitcoin is the perfect storm of capitalism where hackers are attempting to penetrate your organization in hopes of monetizing their efforts. One of the most difficult challenges for cybersecurity teams is to have visibility into what types of information has been exfiltrated from their specific organization and what to do should they find themselves targeted.
In this session, we'll cover the external threat intelligence landscape and more specifically the type of tools that are available to gain visibility into the dark web, how to dynamically update your existing defenses with the latest information from trusted sources, and how to take full advantage of this critical pillar in your cybersecurity program.
