ELASTIC DAY | DENMARK

One day. Infinite possibilities.

The First Official Elastic Day Denmark is Here!

Elastic Day Denmark is a free event gathering developers, architects and consultants, where you can learn first-hand how to bring the Power of Search to your enterprise search, observability, and security use cases with Elastic solutions.

The program is aimed at anyone who is interested in Elastic, whether you are using any of the solutions already or not, and includes technical updates, sneak peaks, customers sharing their stories, keynote presentations, and an exhibition area during the day.

We will close off the event with a lottery where you can win a €200 Amazon gift card, an interactive CTF security workshop for those who like to test-drive their skills, and finally, networking drinks and bites!

Evidence-based NDR and Threat Hunting

Advanced attackers can often operate undetected for extended periods of time by finding blind spots in an environment and circumventing traditional detection mechanisms. What they all have in common is that they rely on the network, where they inevitably leave traces of their activities. Using Elastic we can follow the trail of evidence and stop attackers faster.

  • A laptop with a fast internet connection and a modern browser (e.g., Chrome) is all that is needed.
  • An understanding of endpoint and network fundamentals is required.
  • Experience working in an IT or security operations role such as SOC or incident response analyst is strongly preferred.
