Data science and security visibility

How can we best apply data science techniques to gain security visibility?
What data you collect obviously affects your detection capabilities, but as many have painfully experienced; there can be too much of a good thing!
In this episode, Robby is joined by Jeff Barto. He is the Chief Security Officer at a large hedge fund in the US, has worked in security for over 20 years and has a lot of experience asking himself the question “how much data is enough?”. Jeff takes us through what types of data is he collecting and why, and how to collect data smartly to get the detection capabilities you need.
Robby and Jeff also discuss their take on the future of data science and security visibility, and whether now is the time to ditch people and leave security for the machines?

Security Validation

How can we prove cybersecurity effectiveness?
With USD 124 billion being spent worldwide on IT security last year alone, it's no wonder this is a question many would like the answer to. However, finding a quantitative metric to evaluate security investments, outside of positive effects like diminishing risks and reducing the amount of bad things happening, is not straight forward.
To help us navigate this question, Robby is joined by someone with a lot of experience making security investments effective. Brian Contos has a long list of merits after his more than two decades of experience working in the cybersecurity field. He has also written several security books and is an award-winning podcaster. Brian is now CISO & VP Technology Innovation in Mandiant Security Validation, also known as Verodin, a business platform for measuring and managing cybersecurity effectiveness.
