Sophos
50-minute Sponsored Session: Date: Wednesday, August 9 | 1:50pm-2:40pm (Mandalay Bay K) Title: View from the SOC:
Avoiding Death by a Thousand Data Sources
Speakers: Mat Gangwer, VP, Managed Threat Response, Sophos
Dave Mareels, Sr. Director, Product Management, Sophos
Security data is a fickle beast. Don't collect enough data from the right sources, and you'll be blind to certain attacks. Collect too much data in a quest for complete visibility, and your data lake will be as expensive as your alerts are noisy.
How to select the optimal set of data sources, and how to operationalize that data for threat detection, investigation, and response, is a critical decision every security leader must answer.
This session covers how to select and use the right data sources—covering endpoint, network, identity, cloud, email, and more—to meet your security objectives without getting buried.

VMware Carbon Black
At Black Hat, Our Presence Shows Our Commitment
We Believe We Can Help You Win the Fight Against Ransomware
There has never been a more crucial time for security professionals to have the right solutions to defend against bad actors in the rapidly evolving threat landscape. Arming our customers with enterprise solutions that protect their businesses from cyber threats is our singular purpose.
VMware Carbon Black is sponsoring Black Hat 2023 to solidify our commitment to protecting your business by innovating our security portfolio. With Black Hat’s history as a gathering place for the industry’s brightest, we can’t think of a better place to demonstrate our passion for helping our customers operate confidently and securely. And it’s the best place to show how VMware continues to invest in preserving and expanding our presence as a cybersecurity industry leader.
At Black Hat, we’re underscoring how vital it is for infosec professionals to rely on a single source of truth to make the decisions that keep them a step ahead of the next emerging threat. By sharing the core beliefs that drive our product and business strategy, we also hope to share how we’re showing up daily for customers–and why this work is so important.
What We Believe
We believe the details matter. That context matters. That you can’t hope to drop a bunch of data into a big pile and expect magic to occur because not all anomalies are attacks, and not all attacks are anomalies.
We believe modern cybersecurity requires more visibility and fewer black boxes. No matter how smart the machine is or how fancy the tool gets, ultimately, a human must be in the loop. And that human is under attack and has to win every time when the attackers only have to get through once. Even when that human has the required insight and skills, they need help. So, we believe that people matter. They matter a great deal.
We believe no tool or organization can remove all the threats to your business. Yet, the tools you choose must enable your organization to solve and defend itself against threats unique to you. We believe the analyst, with their expertise and hard-fought wisdom, should be able to make the tool better than it was when it came out of the box. And the right solution should return the favor by making you better, not irrelevant.
For your business, we know the fight against cyber threats is important, even existential. Yet, we believe this is a fight you can win. And we know we can help tilt the scales in your favor. We’d love the opportunity to show you how.
See us in Vegas at booth #1732 and find us here.
