Active Cyber Defense – Emulate attacker behavior to improve detection rules

M.Sc. Ondřej Nekovař and Jan Pohl

EIV recording without permission

The capabilities of attackers and their sophistication are constantly growing. The number of tools and technologies to protect us from these advanced attacks is also growing. According to the annual statistics and the amount of damage caused by attackers, it is clear that these tools either do not work or their implementation is so complex that it is impossible to manage it well. Another reason is the lack of human resources to operate these technologies. But is new technology really the only thing that will protect us from attacks and harm? Isn't a better solution to go back to basic concepts, survey your own environment and learn about the attacker?

In the lecture, we will introduce the Active Defense Gray Zone and explain the issue of the basic concept of creating detection rules in the context of the technologies used and their validation with the help of atomic and micro emulation tools.
