Join us for this live webinar at 10am on 14th January (PT) or 15th January (GMT).

On November 21, 2024, CISA posted a security advisory with lessons learned from a red team assessment of a critical infrastructure organization. In the security advisory, CISA cautioned that an over-reliance of EDR without combining network layer protections can leave an organization ill-equipped to prevent and detect malicious activity. More and more, organizations are realizing the need to shift from endpoint-centric solutions to XDR solutions that include network-focused strategies. This expert panel will examine why EDR is often insufficient and how NDR is gaining traction as a complementary solution. We'll discuss the necessity of a holistic threat detection that includes signatures, pattern matching with YARA, anomaly detection, and AI-augmented detection technologies.

Join us to discover how AI and ML are revolutionizing network defense, learn actionable steps for enhancing cyber resilience, and examine real-world scenarios, as we explore the future of network security.
