Software Engineering Institute (SEI) Webcast Series

Cyber situational awareness is an emerging topic in network operations and defense, yet the overarching concept of situational awareness has been widely used and studied extensively for decades. During this webinar, we will • describe the foundations of cyber situational awareness • explore how to apply situational awareness concepts to the cyber domain • look at how network flow plays a critical part in gaining situational awareness over today's complex networks • introduce tools that can be used to collect and analyze network flow data • review examples that show the successful use of network flow to solve operational and security problems
