TALK 1: Sysmon for Windows Logging by Amalkanth Padinjarethottiyil Raveendran

Log management is an important part of cybersecurity. Windows operating system holds the major market share of endpoint systems and significant part of servers, does Windows event logs provide sufficient visibility into these systems? Is there an additional log monitoring supported by Microsoft? In this talk we are going to find answers for these questions and discuss how sysmon can be implemented in an enterprise environment.

TALK 2: Do the benefits of your social network presence REALLY outweighs the security risks? by Robert Mcardle

In the last few weeks it was disclosed that 533M Facebook records had been published on several cybercriminal forums. These records appear to be a republishing of an old data breach - but still bring up two important points - just what can an attacker do with this data, and do you REALLY want to be putting it online in the first place. In this short 10-15 min session I'll explore a bit the sort of the data thats in dumps like this, and discuss briefly what you can consider to limit your exposure to such breaches in future
