Beyond the Zero-Day: See Your Network Like an Attacker | Webinar with HD Moore

Assume the breach. Zero-days keep shipping, AI is writing exploits faster than anyone patches, and "patch everything in time" stopped working years ago. Stop betting the org on winning that race.

How to generate real-world load tests using Grafana Cloud k6 and production telemetry

You set a 500ms threshold because it feels like a good target.
