Description

Guests: John Stoner, Principal Security Strategist, Google Cloud Security Dave Herrald, Head of Adopt Engineering, Google Cloud Security Topics: In your experience, past and present, what would make clients trust vendor detection content? Regarding “canned”, default or “out-of-the-box” detections, how to make them more production quality and not merely educational samples to learn from? What is more important, seeing the detection or being able to change it, or both? If this is about seeing the detection code/content, what about ML and algorithms? What about the SOC analysts who don't read the code? What about “tuning” - is tuning detections a bad word now in 2023? Everybody is obsessed about “false positives,” what about the false negatives? How are we supposed to eliminate them if we don’t see detection logic?

No, Detection as COOKING!” blog EP64 Security Operations Center: The People Side and How to Do it Right EP108 How to Hunt the Cloud: Lessons and Experiences from Years of Threat Hunting EP75 How We Scale Detection and Response at Google: Automation, Metrics, Toil Why is Threat Detection Hard?

Cloud Security Podcast by Google focuses on security in the cloud, delivering security from the cloud, and all things at the intersection of security and cloud. Of course, we will also cover what we are doing in Google Cloud to help keep our users' data safe and workloads secure. We’re going to do our best to avoid security theater, and cut to the heart of real security questions and issues. Expect us to question threat models and ask if something is done for the data subject’s benefit or just for organizational benefit. We hope you’ll join us if you’re interested in where technology overlaps with process and bumps up against organizational design. We’re hoping to attract listeners who are happy to hear conventional wisdom questioned, and who are curious about what lessons we can and can’t keep as the world moves from on-premises computing to cloud computing.
