One of the most common cyberattack techniques, lateral movement, allows criminals to target critical school computer systems to extort large ransom accounts. Utilizing the MITRE ATT&CK Framework can help identify control gaps and detect lateral movement. 

Attivo Networks, McAfee, and Carahsoft discussed a unified approach to identifying lateral movement and putting the proper security controls in place to better protect your school and community in the fight against ransomware.

During this webinar, we discussed our approach including:

• Understanding the TTP’s attackers use most often
• Aligning the security controls and strategy to provide redundant systems of attack detection
• Creating additional obstacles adversaries must overcome to execute a successful attack
• Protecting against common attack scenarios
• Bolstering detection capabilities throughout the Cyber kill chain with a particular focus on lateral movement
