Threat-Led Defense: From Adversary Insight to Detection Precision

December 15th, 2025 | 2PM EST | Presented by Binary Defense & Tidal Cyber

Modern detection engineering is evolving—and organizations need a smarter, more targeted approach to defend against today’s adversaries. In this webinar, Binary Defense and Tidal Cyber break down how a truly threat-led strategy helps security teams move beyond generic detections and instead focus on the behaviors, techniques, and impact paths that matter most.

Join John Dwyer, Deputy CTO & Head of ARC Labs at Binary Defense, and Frank Duff, Chief Innovation Officer & Co-Founder at Tidal Cyber, as they explore how threat profiling, adversary clustering, and attack-coverage mapping transform the way defenders prioritize detection engineering. They’ll unpack why “green spreadsheets” and broad ATT&CK coverage aren’t enough—and how contextualizing threats to each organization’s environment drives higher-impact, higher-fidelity detections.

Through real examples and platform walk-throughs, John and Frank demonstrate how Binary Defense and Tidal Cyber partner to:

• Identify which adversaries are most relevant to a client’s industry, geography, and operational impact

• Prioritize detection work based on adversary procedures—not generic techniques.

• Use procedure-level intelligence and clustering to reveal overlaps across ransomware operators.

• Strengthen defenses against true impact events—the actions that lead to business-disrupting crises.

• Operationalize detection pipelines by aligning out-of-the-box controls, custom analytics, and new detection ideas into a single prioritized backlog.
