2023 Survey Event | Threat Hunting: Focusing on the Hunters and How Best to Support Them
As vendors develop new software or tools for threat hunting, we need to remember that threat hunting is predominantly a human-based activity in looking for incidents that our automated tools have not yet found, or cannot yet detect. This year, our survey will focus on the hunters themselves and how their organizations support threat hunting. Are hunters asked to complete multiple tasks at once? How much focus is given to threat hunting compared with other cybersecurity tasks? We look further at the skills that threat hunters must hone as that are just starting out, to skillsets of those who have been hunting for many years. We again will compare year-on-year trends to see how organizations have shifted their perspectives on threat hunting.

2023 Report: Digital Forensics
It is no surprise that there is a shortage of cybersecurity professionals, and year upon year, these careers continue to be some of the most in-demand jobs in the corporate, healthcare, financial, education, and government sectors. While the term cybersecurity is broad in scope, there are many in-demand roles specifically in digital forensics and investigations. Digital forensics is a small subset of cybersecurity which is further broken up into many distinct disciplines, each often requiring their own set of specialized skillsets, aptitude, certifications, and on the job experience. This webcast aims to dissect some of these disciplines and get a feel from the experts why they chose their specific field and what it takes to thrive as a practitioner in niche forensic fields.Register for this webcast now and be among the first to receive the companion report by authors Domenica Crognale (SANS Certified Instructor) and Heather Mahalik (SANS Fellow).

The Importance of NDR Detection-in-Depth
Detection engineering has evolved into an art, contributing to the success rates of endpoint and network detection and response tooling capabilities. Used to effectively counter the increasing complexity of today’s cyber threat actors, high-fidelity detections can help an organization discover threats earlier, neutralizing them before further damage can occur.

SANS 2024 Threat Hunting Survey: Hunting for Normal Within Chaos
In recent years, the cyber threat landscape has evolved significantly, blurring the lines between tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) used by cybercrime and nation-state-sponsored attacks. On this webcast, SANS certified instructors Mat Fuchs and Josh Lemon will explore results of our 2024 Threat Hunting Survey, and reveal how organizations are changing their proactive hunting activities and their use of hunting for unusual patterns, behaviors, and artifacts within network traffic and endpoints to catch threat actors who continually try to side-step detections. Register for this webcast now, and you will automatically receive the companion white paper upon publication.
