Datadog Detect is a virtual mini-conference dedicated to helping security teams modernize detection and response by applying engineering best practices. Hear talks from industry experts, including security researchers and engineers at Datadog, Red Canary, and Corelight to learn about building scalable, effective security operations.

In their talk, Katie Nickels (Sr. Director of Intelligence Operations) and Jesse Griggs (Sr. Threat Researcher) from Red Canary show you how to adapt an endpoint detection mindset to the cloud, specifically focusing on pre-impact TTPs and building robust cloud detections.

Kubernetes is powerful — but let’s be honest, managing access and identities across users, clusters, kubectl sessions, RBAC rules, CI/CD pipelines, and AI agents can feel like wandering through a corn maze in the dark. Static kubeconfigs, sprawling IAM roles, and long-lived credentials are the cobwebs and skeletons cluttering your path to secure, scalable infrastructure.

Is your VMware environment secure? A sophisticated backdoor called BRICKSTORM, used by espionage actor UNC5221, could be hiding in your vCenter backups right now. Restoring from a compromised snapshot means letting the attackers right back in. But what if your backups could be your best defense? In our new 4-minute demo, we walk through the exact steps to: Proactively hunt for BRICKSTORM within your backups using YARA rules. Instantly quarantine infected snapshots to stop the threat from spreading. Identify a guaranteed 'Gold Copy' for a fast, safe, clean-room recovery.

Defender Fridays - Modern SecOps: What an AI-Ready SOC Actually Means with Dr. Anton Chuvakin Join us for this week's Defender Fridays as we explore what it actually means to build an AI-ready SOC with Dr. Anton Chuvakin, Security Advisor at the Office of the CISO for Google Cloud. At Defender Fridays, we delve into the dynamic world of information security, exploring its defensive side with seasoned professionals from across the industry. Our aim is simple yet ambitious: to foster a collaborative space where ideas flow freely, experiences are shared, and knowledge expands.
