Description

The collection, classification, and exploitation of knowledge about adversaries - collectively known as cyber threat intelligence - gives network defenders information superiority that is used to reduce the adversary's likelihood of success with each subsequent intrusion attempt. Responders need accurate, timely, and detailed information to monitor new and evolving attacks, as well as methods to exploit this information to put in place an improved defensive posture.

The Cyber Threat Intelligence Summit & Training brings together top experts and practitioners for in-depth threat intelligence talks, world-class SANS training, DFIR NetWars, and exclusive networking events! This year's Summit will provide you with specific analytical techniques and capabilities, through case studies and firsthand experience, that can be utilized to properly create and maintain threat intelligence in your organization.

The Summit will explore the following:
  • Interesting perspectives and case studies that challenge CTI assumptions and result in a shift in understanding
  • Methods for producing Cyber Threat Intelligence
  • Implementing and making decisions based off of intelligence
  • Case studies on the application of cyber threat intelligence to a security or business problem
  • How classic intelligence approaches are applied to CTI analysis and production
  • Innovative ways to utilize or analyze CTI
  • New tools developed to support or enable CTI

Supplier diversity ensures a more resilient supply chain while supporting economic development in the communities in which it operates.   The impact of MGM Resorts' supplier diversity initiatives is significant.

The story extends beyond the numbers – it reflects the tangible benefits brought to small and diverse-owned businesses, fostering economic empowerment in their communities.    MGM Resorts also supports the development and business skills of diverse-owned businesses through investment, mentorship and education.
