Title: 
Getting Familiar and Started with MITRE ATT&CK™ 

Abstract:
The MITRE ATT&CK framework has become a widely used knowledge base and model for real cyber adversary behavior. In use across governments, private sector, and security solutions providers, ATT&CK helps to focus defenses against known threats, provides an effective tool for measuring security improvements, and drives innovation. The session will cover the history of ATT&CK and what drove its creation at MITRE, the philosophy behind how ATT&CK is maintained, and several use cases for how it can be applied including behavioral analytic development, defensive gap analysis, and adversary emulation.
