CSI SX

CSI SX: The event that has become synonymous with security solutions for your business. At CSI SX, innocent servers may wind up dead.

First, we invent a company with a global sales team. Then we build that sales team a real network, a private cloud, deployed via the million-dollar Norwich University Cyberweapons Range. The man behind the groundbreaking Norwich University facility, long-time CSI instructor Dr. Peter Stephenson, gives us the walkthrough on the SX main stage. Then, the fun begins:

• There's a screen onstage with a real-time network map.
• There's another screen displaying the SIEM console for this network.
• Yet another screen connects us to Stephenson's Cybercadet Red Team.

The Cybercadet Red Team are students in a full-time program dedicated to the attack and defense of military networks. Where our sales team's network is concerned, they're up to bad things. Nodes on the network map are turning red—not because we've got PowerPoint slides with red dots, but because real servers are being attacked and taken down.

This scenario—a fully implemented virtual network that will host multiple live attack scenarios—allows us to delve into a real-world, no-mistakes-unpunished trek through the cutting edge of virtual infrastructure, cloud computing, and agile application development. You are part of the blue team. You need to make sure that what's happening to the network onstage can't happen again.

In your breakout sessions you will test your strategies with top expert speakers and the best attendees in the industry. The live attacks that you've seen will meet with live countermeasures. And that's just Day 1!
