DESCRIPTION:   'Title: Sold Out - Finding the Needle: An Introduction to De
 tection\n   Engineering\n   When: Friday\, Aug 9\, 09:00 - 12:59 PDT\n   W
 here: Springhill Suites/Desert Inn - [1]Map\n\n   Description:\n\n   As de
 fenders\, we are always outnumbered\, but we are by no means\n   outmaneuv
 ered. Attackers may hide in the haystack of haystacks\, but\n   with scala
 ble detection logic\, efficient coding practices\, a thorough\n   investig
 ation methodology\, and a reasonable corpus of computing\, we\n   can stil
 l determine which haystack to look within\, and subsequently\n   find the 
 needle.\n\n   This is often made possible by a detection pipeline. And kno
 wing how\n   detection pipelines work\, and the role each component plays\
 , can help\n   us write more efficient\, more accurate detections to make 
 life hard\n   for the attacker. By reducing the attacker's window of oppor
 tunity\,\n   whilst making the subsequent investigation easier for the wou
 ld-be\n   analyst\, we can maintain a strong defensive position\, forcing 
 the\n   attacker to burn significantly more resources in an attempt to mak
 e\n   progress.\n\n   This workshop will run attendees through implementin
 g a simple\n   detection pipeline in code\, and some basic detection rules
 \, to\n   understand how to: - Ingest and normalize arbitrary log data\, a
 nd make\n   such data available for downstream detection rules\; - Impleme
 nt\n   detection logic\, to isolate potentially malicious behaviour\; - En
 rich\n   log data with more context\, aiding investigation\; and - Draw\n 
   relationships from individual log entries\, to reduce investigative\n   
 noise.\n\n   Attendees should be comfortable with either Python 3 or Golan
 g\,\n   including core language syntax and the execution environment of th
 eir\n   preferred language.\n\n   Speakers:Kathy Zhu\,Troy Defty\n\n   Spe

 Security Engineering Tech Lead in the detection space at\n   Google. Her i
