Why Detection Alone Can’t Keep Up with Modern Identity Attacks

Identity is now the primary attack surface and it’s breaking traditional security strategies.

In this episode, SpecterOps’ Mark Wilson explains why detection and response alone can’t keep up with modern attackers. With breakout times shrinking from hours to minutes or seconds, attackers no longer need exploits. They log in using valid credentials and move through trusted paths undetected.

This video explores why detection hasn’t failed, but is being asked to solve the wrong problem and why understanding and reducing identity attack paths is critical to staying ahead.
