Modernizing Incident Response Using Techniques that Scale - Eric Capuano, Whitney Champion

Traditional digital forensics and incident response (DFIR) techniques often fall short, struggling to keep up with the speed and scale required by modern environments. This talk explores the limitations of these traditional methods, examining why they can be slow and challenging to scale effectively. Attendees will gain insight into innovative open source tools and techniques that enable faster, more scalable incident response processes—helping teams respond to incidents with greater agility. Digital Forensics and Incident Response (DFIR) teams face unprecedented challenges in today's large, distributed, and complex IT environments. The exponential growth of data, cloud-native architectures, and sophisticated attack techniques demands a fundamental shift in our incident response approach. Traditional methods often resemble post-incident autopsies, while defenders need to engage threats proactively—before significant damage occurs. This presentation will explore: Current challenges with traditional DFIR approaches in modern environments Why legacy forensics tools and methodologies often fail to scale The impact of cloud computing and containerization on incident response Modern techniques for rapid triage and investigation at scale Automation strategies to handle high-volume investigations How all of this can be accomplished with 100% free and open source tooling Attendees will learn practical strategies for modernizing their incident response capabilities, focusing on techniques they can implement immediately to improve investigation efficiency and effectiveness. The presentation will demonstrate modern open source tools and workflows that help teams tackle increasingly complex incidents while maintaining investigation quality. Whether you're a seasoned incident responder looking to scale your capabilities or an organization building a modern security operations center, this talk will provide valuable insights into the future of incident response.
