STRATEGIC REEL: From guesswork to ground truth — stopping threats before they spread

In today’s post-signature world, attackers don’t just break in — they blend in. In this second installment of the Last Watchdog Strategic LinkedIn Reel (LW SLR) series, Corelight CEO Brian Dye delivers a clear-eyed take on how defenders can regain the upper hand with network-derived ground truth.

This high-impact reel distills key insights from our RSAC 2025 Fireside Chat, including how NDR empowers SOC teams to trace the full attack path — from initial access to containment — and to prove what really happened. One customer used Corelight to verify the true scope of a ransomware attack and reject a $10 million ransom demand.

The embedded LW SLR (above) captures the message in under a minute: in cybersecurity’s next chapter, knowing — not guessing — is everything.
