Workshop schedule

Wednesday, 3/24/21

  • 10am - 11am CT
    • Security Tools vs Operations Tools - Learn the differences between Security and Operational focused tools and the impact that both can have within your environment. Emphasis will be placed on knowing the use cases for each and how a mature practice implements both.
    • Designing for Growth - Planning the growth of your logging infrastructure is a long-term plan, and while you may scope for your current logging environment, future growth and resource planning is critical to get the most out of an expensive SIEM investment.
    • Do's And Don'ts Of Windows Logging - With Windows logging, there is a lot of information that is collected and forwarded to a logging solution. This talk discusses the key points and values in collecting Windows logs and focusing on the key things to keep in mind so that valuable information does not slip through the cracks of the noise.
  • 11am - 11:15am CT
    • Break
  • 11:15am - 12:15pm CT
    • Why Fewer Well Tuned Rules Are Better Than Many - It can be difficult to know where to begin with enabling security rules within any logging solution. Our architect will review best practices around LogRhythm and explain how a manageable ruleset can be attained (ex. in some cases, a “Less is More” approach with solidly built rules and following an appropriate framework).
    • Top Log Sources You Should Be Ingesting & Why - Discussion will be focused around what you NEED to log to get the necessary visibility into the critical aspects of your logging environment. This includes potential sensitive information, risk platforms, and potential ingress/egress points. We'll also discusses the key points and values in collecting Windows logs, focusing on what to keep in mind so that valuable information doesn't slip through the cracks of noise.
    • Proactive System Management - When playing the long-game in security, your SIEM health is of utmost importance. We'll dive into ways you and your team can be proactive in maintaining your SIEM's event management, DX health, and processing health to ensure that you remain smooth-sailing over the years to come.
