Processes which tackle different aspects of an order, sometimes in parallel or batch. Processes which fork and then merge later on. Processes which go into planned deep-freeze for days or weeks before reawakening. Data formats which are hostile. The list goes on.n We take you through the thought process, share mistakes and learnings, and outline considerations/techniques to help you win in the arena of real-world data.n ",

In this talk, we will discuss ongoing work in the area of streaming machine learning and show how we leverage Flink and DSP to build real time machine learning systems that allow us to perform adaptive thresholding and anomaly detection online.  As an application of these principles, we will showcase how real time machine learning is used to detect anomalies in DSP pipelines.  The talk will introduce relevant background in streaming machine learning as well as the problem of anomaly detection on Kubernetes logs. ",

We will walk through data ingestion using the data sources supported by the new Splunk Investigate wizard. This allows users of all levels to configure their data source and perform various manipulation functions on the ingested data to make sure it meets their use case. We will also go over the guiding principles of the underlying Data Stream Processing (DSP) pipeline which empowers the user to add their own customizations and send data to a variety of destinations.   We will compare this with current Splunk Enterprise data ingestion process by configuring a TA for a specific use case and then alter the ingested data to the desired format before sending it to an index. The user will be able to draw a contrast between the two approaches and see how it does not have to take up to 6 weeks to acquire and prepare data for analytics in Splunk. We hope this session leaves the user excited about data ingestion and prep.    ",

Frankly, that felt like an insurmountable hurdle for someone with little front-end development experience. I was pleasantly surprised to find that even as a solo developer, I was able to create a full-featured Splunk App with an interface that looks like it was designed by someone far more talented. Through a demonstration of my incident response app and a discussion of my experience building it, I’ll show you how Splunk makes it easier and, more importantly, realistic to bring your own ideas to life.

What's missing is bringing the world of stream processing to the Business Intelligence user. At Splunk we've built a tool called Splunk Data Stream Processor (DSP) to fill this gap.  In this session, Max and Sharon will present the design and architecture of DSP. We will compare it with other stream processing frameworks to show you how DSP allows users to visually author and preview stream processing pipelines and instantly deploy them at scale. We will also present our developer SDKs, allowing third-party custom functions to be developed and integrated for data processing. With its high level abstractions for business users and extensible framework for developers, Data Stream Processor makes stream processing accessible to the widest possible audience. ",

Join us to understand how T-Mobile is using Splunk Enterprise with the Splunk Machine Learning Toolkit to identify and narrow the point of origin of service-impacting events across our suite of enterprise applications. Using the DensityFunction algorithm to highlight anomalous behavior, we’re able to focus an investigation on a small subset of the applications which in turn leads to faster resolution of the issues we’re confronted with.

By aggregating the heterogeneous data streams that are produced by distinct groups within crypto (blockchains, mining pools, exchanges, etc.), we have built a unified analytical platform called Nakamoto Terminal (NTerminal) using Splunk. By leveraging NTerminal, we are creating an adapted agent-based modeling (ABM) system; agents monitor the state of the ecosystem by consuming real time updates from the individual data sources that modulate their state and connectivity. Different heuristic models are called upon to facilitate data transformations and agent interactions. Within this ecosystem, collective agent activity reveals emergent properties and patterns of behavior. With Splunk as the centerpiece, integrated reports, dashboards, or searches allow you to better navigate the ecosystem of interest.",

If you are struggling with these questions, this is the session for you! Splunk Workload Management puts you in control. It allows you to define resource pools, access to them, limit the maximum number of concurrent searches in a pool, and monitor rogue searches. Using Linux cgroups to allocate CPU and memory to different pools, Workload Management allows you to create separate pools for ingestion and search. You can create sub-pools within search to isolate incoming searches. The rules can be defined based on search type, user, roles, application etc. Even better, you can monitor for rogue searches and automatically abort or throttle them.",

We will use open data sources and index them in Splunk. Using advanced visualizations we will analyze the data and understand more about police actions. Then using MLTK we will create a predictive model for crimes and then analyze the model for any bias due to the data provided. Machine bias is a real issue nowadays when machine learning algorithms are increasingly being used by government agencies to predict crime and even pass sentences on convicts. We need to understand that along with having positive impact of predicting crime, it can have a long-lasting negative impact as well.n ",

The agency is responsible for protecting IP and other assets totaling $4.3 trillion as part of safeguarding the nation’s food supply chain.   The goal was to enhance the ability to handle problem escalations quickly and improve communications between teams. They are currently ingesting more than 3TB daily across 65 data sources where Splunk is leveraged as an integrated data platform and framework service to act as a nerve center for the combined NOC and SOC teams. Implementation has resulted in dramatically reducing MTTD to an average of less than 30 min compared to previous times of up to 12 hours, MTTR times from 16 hours to often less than 1 with overall outage times having now been reduced by about 68%. From a security perspective, it is used to identify data exfiltration and insider threats, as well as for security operations and compliance.  Increasing visibility into all aspects of system operations and troubleshooting efforts is now supported through a series of custom Splunk App’s, glass tables, reports and alerts with operational guides and training to best leverage the capabilities Splunk has generated.",

You can overcome these obstacles by integrating Kafka with the Splunk Data Stream Processor. The Splunk DSP is a data streaming platform that helps you transform and enrich your data. With DSP you can make data-driven decisions in real time as data is ingested. DSP also provides simple ways to build data pipelines, and gives you full control and visibility into your data as it flows through the platform. Apache Kafka is now widely adopted as a foundational element for data pipelines. DSP integrates seamlessly with Kafka clusters, and allows data to be read from Kafka, processed in highly scalable ways, and then written back to Kafka. Join us and see how to use DSP as a streaming engine for Kafka clusters.",

However your first instincts here will take you to the 'join' and 'transaction' commands. These commands will give you less-than-great performance as well as some confusing problems to work around. Come to this talk to learn how to avoid these commands *almost* entirely. We'll walk through search language examples starting with simple ones, where you would first start playing with 'join', and work our way up. In each case we'll cover why you would gravitate to join/transaction and what the problems are. Then what the techniques and the search syntax looks like to write a better faster report, and push most of the work out to the indexers. Not only will your searches run faster and your users be happier, but your administrators will be happy too with the lower system resources used!n ",

From business decisions to economic development and public policy, we rely on data to allocate resources and make critical decisions.

While our technical skills are usually our ticket in, they have little or no impact on how happy we are at work. For example, the correlation between your proficiency in Splunk and your commitment to your team is negligible. As life at work evolves, we see the rising need for an alternative data point: empathy. With the help of sentiment analysis, our talk will highlight how the presence or absence of empathy impacts our working lives. And, better yet, how we can change the course of a team, project, and our own perception by leveraging empathy in a conscious way.",

Telegraf can be deployed as a stand-alone daemon or as a Splunk application that can be pushed out from deployers, masters, and the like. We'll investigate the various integrations with Telegraf and Splunk including using Telegraf as the system to feed Splunk's App for Infrastructure (in lieun  of collectd), custom dashboards, as well as integrations with ITSI. With Telegraf's multitude of inputs, outputs, and a nearly universal run-time, it's a fantastic tool to add to your system monitoring workflows.",

Monitoring had become about MTTI (mean time to innocence) instead of fixing the fight issues more quickly and finding a way to move from ‘reacting’ to outages to ‘preventing’ them.

Our small DevOps team tasked with deploying Splunk did not have the bandwidth to build a resilient and scalable Splunk deployment in a traditional way at the pace required. By consuming the official Splunk Docker image, taking advantage of SmartStore backed by AWS S3, making a liberal use of other AWS services, and with support from Splunk PS architects as well as communities around Splunk’s official GitHub repos, we were able to rapidly deploy a complex Splunk cluster in AWS with minimal overhead.

What if you need to extend ITSI with additional capabilities in order to merge your alerts with your support team's response processes? We will turn ITSI up to 11 by adding the concept of 'platforms' as a collection of related services, support reoccurring maintenance windows, and generate rich alerts that include information such as which entities are impacted and what the KPI values are. These concepts are combined so that all the problems in your platform generate a single alert with alert text rich enough that that your support teams can respond without opening ITSI, and we will do it all with just SPL.",

Large, centralized systems are being decoupled and distributed to address scalability needs and to allow companies to deliver value faster. Compared to monolithic applications, microservice architectures introduce complexity in network communication, feature much shorter life cycles, and require resiliency in dynamic environments. As companies began to build or migrate to microservice architectures they often run into operational complexity and struggle to efficiently monitor their environments. These challenges have highlighted the need to observe systems differently and lead to the rise of Observability. In this session, we will discuss OpenTelemetry and how it provides visibility into both distributed traces and metrics. We will walk through the architecture including client libraries and collection as well as cover key concepts including annotations, sampling policies and more. Live demos and coding examples will be presented through the talk. By the end of the session, you will know what OpenTelemetry is, why it is important, how you can get started and how you can get involved.n ",

Therefore the Ministry of Energy of the State of Israel implemented an advanced security strategy to protect all power plants in the country. By monitoring all their decentralized SIEM systems and SCADA events from power plant operations they get a comprehensive view of their nationwide security posture in energy supply. Due to highly heterogeneous SIEM landscapes they normalize those with Splunk's CIM and leverage machine learning based approaches on this data to get an edge over manual hand written rules. With the help of Splunk's Machine Learning Toolkit (MLTK) they can not only iterate faster on their use cases but also get immediate outcomes that help their security operations.

While machines can be given analytical capabilities with machine learning (ML), sensing human inputs - like auditory or other sensory data - in a form that machines can understand is challenging. In Splunk, we have been all about making machine data accessible to humans, but what if we flip that and make human data accessible to machines? I take audio captured from live and recorded sources and using Fast Fourier transform feed it into Splunk's Machine Learning Toolkit (MLTK) for classification and anomaly detection. Can we use Splunk to detect gunshots? Can we learn a machine’s normal sounds to detect pending failures? This presentation uses Splunk to apply superhuman ML detection and learning capabilities to human data to show that the MLTK contains accessible tools you can apply to your IT and security problems.

Escalations in cyber-related attacks have made increased visibility into these often overlooked systems paramount. Over the past year, Booz Allen has built an OT cybersecurity monitoring solution called ControlWatch that provides enhanced visibility and anomaly detection with a focus on OT environments. By aggregating data from within and around the process, the solution provides a critical view for plant managers, C-level decision-makers, or the boots on the ground. We’ll highlight the context into, detection of, and alerting on a myriad of malicious and misaligned activities. We have implemented unique OT-centric use cases and will walk-through a day-in-the-life scenario to show you how the solution increases cybersecurity awareness and resilience in a production organization at all levels.",

We can, however, use an entity's past behavior to measure how much of what we observe today deviates from normal behavior. In this way we can detect unknown, hidden and insider threats early on to stay ahead of advanced threats. This talk presents a unified, scalable framework for anomaly detection that is built on the frequent itemset mining technique. The premise is that if we can align an event with more frequent patterns observed in history, then the event is unlikely to be an anomaly. By mining through an extensive set of features and feature co-occurrences, the model can accurately capture the normal behaviors. Any new behaviors can then be scored. At which point, any new rare co-occurrences of events can be detected and sent to analysts and SOC teams for rapid investigation.n ",

We use this data to help customers build tailored defenses—defenses that automatically detect, investigate, and respond to suspicious activities in real time. In this session we will discuss how Splunk security researchers created our own honeypot and data collection framework in response to research demonstrating that honeypots were twice as effective as open-source intelligence feeds at detecting new threats (http://tinyurl.com/y335po8d). We will provide an introduction to honeypots and explain how we architected and built KLAPP-Back, a high-interaction SSH honeypot. We will also discuss how KLAPP-Back helped us build better detection analytics and seed Splunk Enterprise Security, Splunk Phantom, and Splunk User Behavior Analytics use cases with attacker data. ",

This risk-based approach reduces false positives and the situational numbness associated with the legacy whitelisting process. Splunk and TI will walk you through TI's SOC successes as it transitioned to risk-based alerting. TI will detail a few real-life risk-based rule examples, discuss learning curves to fast track your transition, and discuss how MITRE ATT&CK™ fits in with this approach.  After this session, you will have the foundation to embark on your risk-based alerting journey, allowing you to increase detection mechanisms, increase your coverage of the ATT&CK™ techniques, and improve the overall effectiveness of your SOC.",

Beyond the attacks that make headlines and result in millions of stolen personal records, we will also focus on the far less publicized risks related to exposure of intellectual property, infrastructure details or finances. We will share our experience in building a defensive strategy that now detects highly-covert exfiltration attempts.n n To this end, we first shed a lot of light on how companies use general-purpose file stores, such as Box, Office365 or Google Drive. We cover the types of files that commonly get stored in the cloud, file sharing practices, access properties, as well as uses of cloud stores by various departments. There are a lot of unexpected insights which eventually invalidate common security assumptions.n n As the boundary between good and bad gets blurred, we will provide you with a peek into how to design an effective data-driven defense. This approach helped us hone our detection to just tens of validly suspicious exfiltration files in a massive cloud store.n ",

Any changes made to rules or telemetry analyzed without that knowledge risk making your organization more vulnerable. In this session we'll discuss how Splunk empowers us to perform advanced analytics on everything from alert conversion rates to human time expenditure on alerts so that we can optimize all processes related to alerting. As long as we know what to measure and where to look, Splunk can help us tune our security operations centers to reduce monotony and false positives without diminishing our ability to detect actual threats.n ",

Traditional approaches to use case ideation focus on identifying new use cases based on the data already available to the security operations center. However, the threat landscape is constantly changing, and attackers are constantly getting more sophisticated. To detect these advanced threats, our use cases must be based on both business and threat context. In this session, we will share our approach to building innovative use cases based on real-world threats. Starting with industry-specific threat intelligence, we identify the threat actors and their specific tactics, techniques, and procedures. With these insights, we identify use cases relevant to the business, map them to both existing and new data sources, and prioritize implementation based on the specific threats.",

    "Description": "Looking to eliminate blind spots across your SAP environment and take proactive action to detect and mitigate attacks before mission-critical ERP applications are compromised? n n SAP recently teamed with Splunk to help a leading manufacturer build and validate a first-of-it’s-kind bi-directional integration between SAP Enterprise Threat Detection and Splunk. See a demo of how Enterprise Threat Detection’s open, extensible framework enables an exchange of alerts with Splunk to facilitate real-time attack investigations from either platform plus the ability to rapidly take action within the SAP landscape or broader heterogenous infrastructure.n n SAP Enterprise Threat Detection is a powerful native SAP HANA application that quickly identifies suspicious patterns at the application server and database level. When a potential SAP software-specific threat is identified, Enterprise Threat Detection can send an alert to Splunk to correlate with other application and infrastructure data for deeper investigation or trigger immediate action. Conversely, InfoSec teams using Splunk to rapidly identify anomalies across the broader security infrastructure can send alerts to Enterprise Threat Detection for forensics or to trigger appropriate actions in the SAP environment. The combination of Enterprise Threat Detection and Splunk enables organizations to more effectively combat security issues across the enterprise spanning applications and infrastructure.n ",
