Talk: Malicious actors often exploit persistent threats to maintain long-term access to target systems by leveraging vulnerabilities and common misconfigurations. This is especially problematic in environments like appliances, where legitimate administrators may not have direct access to the file system, making detection and remediation even more difficult.In this session, we will walk you through our approach, which leverages a significant advantage of cloud environments: the ability to collect metadata at scale from a diverse range of products, including appliances. We will examine two real-life case studies where we used this technique, along with extensive metadata analysis, to uncover previously undetected threats.Join us in this session to learn how we've enhanced security through metadata analysis and improved detection, and to explore how we can collaborate to strengthen defenses across harder-to-monitor systems like appliances.
