      techniques

    • Common ways intruders are detected, and reasons they are often initially
      missed

    • Improved ways to detect intruders based on network security monitoring
      principles

    • First response actions and related best practices

    • Secure communications among IR team members, and consequences of negligence

    • Approaches to remediation when facing a high-end attacker

    • Short, medium, and long-term verification of the remediation plan to keep the

  • Network Forensics


    • Collecting network traffic as evidence

    • Protecting and preserving traffic from tampering, either by careless
      helpers or the intruder himself

    • Analyzing network evidence using a variety of open source tools, based
      on network security monitoring (NSM) principles

    • Presenting findings to lay persons, such as management, juries, or judges

    • Defending the conclusions reached during an investigation, even in the
      face of adversarial defense attorneys or skeptical business leaders
