Questions and topics:
Of the 3 models, which do you find you use more and why? (PoP, ATT&CK, kill chain)
What kind of orgs have ‘detection engineering’ teams? What roles are involved here, and can other teams (like IR) be involved or share a reverse role there?
Lab setup requires an agent… any agent for ingestion or something specific?
How does Fleet or data ingestion work for Iot/Embedded device testing? Anything you suggest?
How important is it to normalize your log output for ingestion? (app, web, server all tell the story)
