Step into a world where cutting-edge defense meets practicality in cybersecurity! "SANS Secure Your Fortress" will teach you how to master the latest and most effective defense techniques. Whether you're a seasoned expert or just beginning your cyber journey, this event is for you.
In this workshop we will begin with a presentation of the cryptographic systems that can be leveraged to create digital signatures and why we want to use these signatures (their importance). We will discuss the more common use cases for signatures (such as digitally signed email) and then move into more recent examples such as DKIM (DomainKeys Identified Mail), as well as their use for incident detection and response.
