This will boost digital resilience and extend the benefits to their customers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Gary Steele, president and CEO of Splunk said ahead of the event\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n

“Splunk is celebrating 20 years of helping organizations around the world keep their digital systems secure and reliable,” \u2026\u00a0 “To mark the occasion, we will unveil exciting new AI-enhanced products and other powerful innovations across security and observability to thousands of our customers and partners at .conf23.”<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

At the start of the conference Splunk customers and executives came together to demonstrate their unified security and observability platform. <\/span>Splunk Enterprise Security<\/span><\/a> allows businesses to manage their security risks with data-driven insights, ML-powered threat detection and full visibility.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

.conf23 Highlights\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

One of the stand out educational sessions of the event was run by <\/span>CardinalOps<\/span><\/a> about MITRE ATT&CK, a group of over 500 techniques used by threat groups including APT28, the Lazarus Group, FIN7, and LAPSUS$. It\u2019s thought that already 89% of organisations use these methods to mitigate security risks, so this talk tapped into a vital topic.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

CardinalOps\u2019, MITRE ATT&CK Security Layers solves several prevalent operational problems, extends protections and provides users with \u201cdetection-in-depth\u201d. The new tool will allow users to quickly find blind spots, which can ultimately be rectified.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

“As the digital landscape evolves, organizations really need a holistic approach to security and observability. A comprehensive strategy can help security teams safeguard their valuable assets, detect and address potential threats proactively, ensure regulatory compliance, maintain operational continuity and build trust among their stakeholders,” … \u201cSplunk’s latest innovations can help, as they are designed to empower and speed up IT operations, security operations and engineering teams’ work and collaboration for detecting, investigating and remediating security issues.\u201d<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
