Details regarding the breaches at Target, Neiman Marcus and Sony reinforce the inevitability that organizations will be breached. Organizations may be able to better protect their own networks by understanding what these companies did wrong, what they did right, what worked and what didn't work.

Ingleby and Smith recently investigated why it took so long for these companies to detect the breaches. They will review their analysis during the webinar, and they will outline scenarios whereby security data from different points of the network would have detected the breaches. They will also discuss how Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) solutions can provide security monitoring to prevent breaches without generating false positives.
