In this talk Roy Firestein will debut his new Cyber Monitor tool, Cymon. It is the largest tracker of open-source security reports on malware, botnets, phishing and other malicious activities. Cymon ingests over 50K events and 15K unique IP's per day from almost 200 sources across the Internet to build a threat profile and timeline for IP's, Domains and URLs. Roy will demonstrate some of the system's capabilities and show examples of how you can use Cymon to research suspected malicious sources. If time will permit, he will also talk about the architecture and lessons learned when building a scalable system for big data analysis.

Roy Firestein is a Senior Cybersecurity Consultant at eSentire. He is a regular speaker at security conferences and events, such as SecTor and AtlSecCon. Pastime activities include building and breaking stuff, motorcycles and rock climbing.
