Archived: Playing network traffic cop in multi-cloud environments: A guide to detecting & restricting lateral movement

On-Demand Webcast|1 hour

The latest snapshot of your network traffic logs may look innocent enough, but hidden amongst your daily activity are the movements of a cybercriminal adversary who has secretly breached your systems and is now trying to expand its foothold within your virtual walls in multi-cloud environments.

It's this east-west infiltration that turns what could be just a relatively minor breach into a damaging data exfiltration incident or a full-scale ransomware attack. That's why reducing attacker dwell time and curbing lateral movement are essential components to any network security strategy, whether you operate largely on premises, in private clouds or multi-cloud architectures.

This informative webcast will offer key insights and strategies related to the defense against post-breach lateral movement. The session will include:
• Research, statistical analysis and threat reports that underscore the threat that lateral movement represents
• Key metrics, strategies and solutions for detecting post-exploitation east-west movement, including behavioral analysis and identifying threat signatures
• Best practices for effective response once suspicious activity is detected
