Stop the Spread: Cyber Defense Through Epidemiology
Removing the first infected device does not establish that an attack is contained. I apply epidemiological methods to trace spread through identities, shared services and network connections. Using a simulated outbreak, we compare isolation, credential revocation and segmentation. Attendees learn to map transmission paths, account for undetected compromises and judge containment by secondary infections rather than declining alert counts.
