Attack & Defend: Hack It, Then Catch It

Two weeks ago we sat in the SOC and watched real attack traffic hit a live SIEM. Last week we went the other way and took a target from recon to shell. Tonight we put both seats in the same room.

We run one attack against a lab target we own, then switch chairs and hunt for it. What did the attacker leave behind? Which log caught it? Which one didn't, and why? You'll see the same event from both sides, and you'll see why each side gets better by watching the other one work.

This year's Cybersecurity Awareness Month theme is "Don't Make It Easy for Them." Tonight you'll see what that looks like from both sides of the keyboard.

This one is network-wide. HQ in the DMV, Atlanta, and South Florida on the same call.

🎯 What We'll Cover
- The attack, step by step: recon, the foothold, and what the attacker did once they were in
- The defense, same timeline: the alerts and log lines each step produced in Splunk
- The gaps: what the defender missed the first time, and the detection that closes it
- How to practice both sides at home, and which one to start with
