FREMONT, Calif. - Californer -- Attivo Networks®, an award-winning leader in cyber deception and attacker lateral movement threat detection, today announced it will host a virtual breakout session at the 2020 RH-ISAC Cyber Intelligence Summit, titled: "Deceptively Simple Threat Detection." Tony Cole, Chief Technology Officer at Attivo Networks, will discuss the value of modern cyber deception and share ways that retail and hospitality organizations are using virtualized deception fabrics to gain rapid visibility and alert of in-network attackers.

WHO: Tony Cole, Chief Technology Officer, Attivo Networks

WHAT: Deceptively Simple Threat Detection

There are fundamentally two ways to stop an attacker. One is to pursue them and the other is to ambush them. Pursuing an attacker takes advanced training; it is complex and requires an extreme level of precision to detect attacks across all attack surfaces. Alternatively, the use of modern cyber deception has proven itself to be early and accurate in the detection of threats. Globally, retail and hospitality providers are stealthily using virtualized deception fabrics to efficiently plant decoys, bait, lures, and misdirections within their networks to ambush adversaries and trick them into revealing themselves.
