✪ ABSTRACT ✪

Today's threat landscape is dynamic and complex. With the ever-growing sophistication of threats and tactics, the adversary will Not Fade Away any time soon. This last year brought an ever-increasing number of people working from home where bad actors are working in the Undercover of the Night. The growth in ransomware attacks, the ramifications from more advanced social engineering tactics, attacks on cloud infrastructures, and our privacy seemingly gone, we can feel Pretty Beat Up. Couple that with the impact from the overall cybersecurity industry's lack of diversity in thought and practice makes us look at the outlook and Paint it Black. But it is not all doom and gloom.

This panel intends to use the Rolling Stones song titles to help us with a fun and informative dive into today’s threat intelligence, threat landscape and cyber resilience - so that You Win Again.
