Like information security professionals, fraud analysts are inundated with data and often experience alert fatigue. As a former fraud analyst, I was often wasting time chasing false positives and I felt as though I wasn’t making a difference. By incorporating a proactive approach, I was able to identify a larger amount of fraudulent activity. In this presentation, I would like to discuss how the proactive techniques I utilized as a fraud analyst can be successfully applied to hunting cyber adversaries. Some of the techniques include behavioral analytics, data visualization, and cultivating an adversarial mindset. The presentation will discuss financial crimes, but it is first and foremost a hunting story.
