After infecting a target machine, many malicious programs need to communicate with a command & control server ( C & C) that is controlled by the malware author. In order to avoid detection and subvert defensive measures, malware authors employ domain generation algorithms (DGA), which enable the malware to generate hundreds or thousands of new domains, one of which is then registered by the malware author as the location of the C&C server.

Virtual Time Series Meetups are events for everyone who is passionate or curious about time series data and how it can be used. In the September 2020 edition, special guest Jeremy White shares how he uses InfluxDB to monitor his saltwater aquarium.

Snapshot Lifecycle Management (SLM) allows you to set up snapshot lifecycle policies to automate the timing, frequency, and retention of snapshots. In this talk we will cover the basics of registering a repository, setting up a snapshot policy and taking the test snapshots. If you are aware of the necessity of taking frequent snapshots for high availability/disaster recovery and you’ve been looking for a way to automate the whole process - then SLM is the right tool for you!

Learn how the latest security capabilities in the Elastic Stack enable interactive exploration, incident management and automated analysis, as well as unsupervised machine learning to reduce false positives and spot anomalies — all at the speed and scale your security practitioners need to defend your organisation.

Hosted cloud provider Kubernetes services like EKS alleviate the operational burden of Kubernetes. The cluster operator is still responsible for upgrades and all the day 2 operations for the applications running on the cluster. In this meetup we'll discuss how Rancher can help manage the lifecycle of EKS clusters, and will walk through importing existing and provisioning new EKS clusters through Rancher. We will also look at how to deploy Rancher logging and monitoring onto the cluster to handle day 2 operations on the cluster.
