Role Based Behavior Analytics – Patterns and Anomalies in User Behavior as Indicators of Attack
It is easy for attackers to beat traditional security measures: antivirus, firewalls, and intrusion detection systems. This is because those methods are akin to blacklisting known bad behavior. Attackers need only to modify their behavior slightly to avoid the blacklist. Anomaly detection, instead models normal user behavior and alerts when attackers deviate from that without any humans specifying what normal behavior is.
This talk will explain what anomaly detection is, how it works, and how to apply it to your network.
What You’ll Learn
- Why traditional security measures (antivirus, firewalls, IDS, etc.) are not enough to secure your network
- How anomaly detection works
- How to apply anomaly detection to your network
