SOC Summit Talk: Using Pentest Findings to Improve Detections
With Ashley Knowles
March 25 @ 11:00 am – 11:25 am EDT
Are your pentest reports actually helping you make your detections better?
Penetration tests reveal more than exploited or identified vulnerabilities. They can also expose blind spots in visibility and detections.
Join Ashley Knowles, a Black Hills InfoSec Security Consultant, for a 25-minute technical presentation where she will draw on real-world penetration testing experience to help you close coverage gaps.
You’ll learn how to turn penetration test findings into actionable improvements for alerting, coverage, and detections.
