Webinar Description

Key Takeaways

  • Presents 11 cybersecurity controls derived from more than 9,000 incident response investigations
  • Maps controls to NIST CSF, CIS Controls and NIST 800-171 frameworks
  • Covers ransomware, insider threats and nation-state intrusions
  • Designed for incident responders, security operations teams, CISOs and compliance officers

About the Webinar

LevelBlue hosts this 45-minute live webinar examining cybersecurity controls that have demonstrated effectiveness across thousands of real-world incidents. The session draws on data from more than 9,000 incident response investigations to identify 11 controls that have consistently helped organisations defend against ransomware, insider threats and advanced intrusions attributed to nation-state actors.

Rather than presenting theoretical recommendations, the webinar focuses on controls that incident response teams have validated through direct experience. Speakers from LevelBlue will share case studies illustrating how these controls performed during actual security incidents.

Framework Alignment

A significant portion of the session addresses how the 11 controls map to established compliance and security frameworks. The webinar provides specific guidance on alignment with NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF), CIS Controls and NIST 800-171. This mapping helps organisations understand how incident-driven security measures relate to their existing compliance obligations and security programmes.

For organisations subject to regulatory requirements or working toward framework adoption, the session offers a practical bridge between incident response findings and structured security standards.

Threat Categories Addressed

The controls presented in this webinar target three primary threat categories: ransomware attacks, insider threats and advanced intrusions from sophisticated adversaries. Each control is examined in the context of how it has performed against these threat types during actual incident investigations.

Who Should Attend

This webinar is relevant for cybersecurity professionals responsible for defensive operations, incident response and security programme development. Incident responders and security operations teams will benefit from the practical control recommendations. CISOs and security leaders can use the framework mappings to inform strategic planning. Compliance officers will find value in understanding how incident-validated controls align with NIST CSF, CIS Controls and NIST 800-171 requirements. IT managers seeking to improve organisational cyber resilience will gain specific guidance on control implementation priorities.
