Hacking your Operational Technology for Defense
APRIL 13, 2021 @ 10:00 AM (PDT), 5:00 PM (UTC)
Ransomware, supply chain attacks and other threats don’t just affect IT networks. Operational Technology (OT), including Industrial Control Systems (ICS), are increasingly being targeted by attackers and nation state groups. With critical infrastructure and public services at stake, OT Security teams must increasingly adopt cyber security strategies from IT Security, such as red teaming and penetration testing, to prevent and respond to these threats.

Closing the Backdoor: Reverse Engineering SUNBURST
APRIL 15, 2021 @ 7:00 AM (PDT), 2:00 PM (UTC)
At the end of 2020, FireEye revealed the details of a sophisticated threat actor that took advantage of SolarWinds’ Orion Platform to orchestrate a wide-scale supply chain attack and deploy a backdoor we call SUNBURST.
This attack impacted organizations worldwide, leading executives everywhere to question whether their environment fell victim. Discovering, sharing, and shutting down access to the SUNBURST backdoor, which allowed attackers to move freely and spy on victims, required the unique expertise of Mandiant’s Frontline Applied Research and Expertise (FLARE) team. And for Mandiant Managed Defense, the identification of victims started well before the public became aware of the SUNBURST campaign.
Join Mandiant experts for a retelling of the SUNBURST discovery story and a look inside how they addressed the SUNBURST threat with customers, including stories from the front lines of this customer-focused response.
