During this talk, we will analyze real data, discuss and apply various methods, data frameworks and tools coupled with the Python programming language to tackle this obstacle. Along the way identifying methods to triage and process the data. Unearthing the golden nuggets of information that can and will help the analyst better defend the network, and find the proverbial needle in a haystack. It’s time to make the data work for the analyst instead of the analyst being held at its mercy. Even the simplest data sets can yield promising results, we just need to know what to ask, how to look, and enrich the data.
