Everyone knows, working the blue team can be difficult, especially when there is no red team, no time, and no budget. This talk covers several ways you can bring quick wins to improve your defenses in your infrastructure and leverage a better security posture. We will focus on changes that can be made today that are fast, cheap, and not too difficult to implement.
