Cisco Live is one of the largest networking and security conferences in the world, bringing together thousands of IT and security professionals for a week of learning, innovation, and hands-on experience — and this year, I was there, working as a SOC analyst on the ground -protecting the event. At an event of this scale, thousands of devices and connections are generating traffic around the clock, and behind the scenes, a dedicated SOC team is watching every packet, every connection, and every anomaly in real time. This week, I sat down with the Director of the SOC to pull back the curtain on what it actually takes to secure an event like this — from threat patterns unique to a security-savvy crowd, to the tools and team structure that keep it all running.This is a conversation you don’t want to miss
