What you will learn:

What NGAV is and why it is important
Why you must look beyond the alert to eliminate the blind spots
How structured investigations help you get more value from your security tools
How human intelligence combined with strong technology can help reduce risk
How Secureworks can help you eliminate time wasted investigating false positives and noncritical events

Gaps in traditional, signature-based antivirus are driving many organizations to move to more effective Next-Generation Antivirus (NGAV) technology. While NGAV provides more robust protection for your endpoints, you may struggle with how to best implement this new technology and sort alerts that require attention from the noise. Managed NGAV allows you to implement new technology with less effort.

Join us for a quick review of NGAV technology, followed by a real life example of how a Secureworks analyst investigated a NGAV alert and followed the trail through malvertising and PowerShell to identify the threat and provide actionable guidance.
