Quantify your hunt: not your parents’ red teaming

Presented by: Devon Kerr, Roberto Rodriquez
Date: Saturday April 28, 2018
Time: 16:00 - 16:50
Location: Track 1

The security marketplace is saturated with product claims of detection coverage that have been almost impossible to evaluate, all while intrusions continue to make headlines. To help organizations better understand what detections a commercial or open source technology platform provides, a framework is necessary to measure depth and breadth of coverage. This presentation builds upon the MITRE ATT&CK framework by explaining how to measure coverage and quality of ATT&CK while demonstrating open source red team tools and automation that generate artifacts of post-exploitation. The community of security professionals and the organizations for which they work will gain new or improved abilities to measure detection capabilities.

Finally, this presentation will articulate a call to action for the industry: adopt this common language that describes these detection capabilities in a tangible and quantifiable way.
