Validating Security Controls -
Taking " We Think " to " We Know "
Jake Williams, Executive Director of
Cyber Threat Intelligence for SCYTHE
We all have security controls in place that
we hope are detecting or blocking threat
actor behaviors. But do they? Which behaviors?
How do you know? If one of
your security controls fails, will the activity
still be detected? Traditionally, security
control testing has been performed by
red team operators. Unfortunately, these
are point-in-time assessments. Ideally, the
red team would be involved in revalidating
the control with every software update or
configuration change, but this is often cost
prohibitive. During this session, Williams
will help define the value proposition for
security control validation and provide advice
on how to operationalize and scale the
practice. The next time an executive catches
you in the hall worried about something
they read about an incident at a competitor,
you can confidently say " don't worry,
we know we'd detect that. "
