Description: “Security is splintering, Organizations splitting along complexity. Attackers are splitting into tiers focused on stealing money, clients and intellectual property. Successful defense requires understanding the shifting security ecosystem and the ability to rapidly reassess your position, the attacks coming at you and your options. To succeed, we must be willing to make decisions based on partial and often inaccurate data. We must find ways to make errors and adapt, so that evolutionary processes can improve our defenses the same way that they work for attackers. This talk explores a new way of thinking about the problems we face.”
