eCrime, Threat Intelligence, and What's Coming at RSAC Conference 2026 | A Brand Spotlight at RSAC Conference 2026 with Tony Anscombe, Chief Security Evangelist of ESET

Tony Anscombe has attended RSA Conference since 1998 -- back when it was held at the Fairmont Hotel. That long view informs everything about how ESET approaches threat intelligence. It is not about volume. It is about accuracy, speed, and putting the right signal in front of the right team at the right moment.

The ESET eCrime Ecosystem Report comes in two forms: a business-facing summary outlining current risks for leadership, and a long-form technical report for analysts -- complete with IOCs, coding examples, and structured intelligence feeds covering ransomware, crypto scams, malicious email attachments, and infostealer data. These feeds are built to plug directly into SOC workflows and firewall rules, not to create more work for already stretched teams.

Tony Anscombe is direct about the quality problem in threat intelligence. Open-source feeds sound appealing -- until you factor in the analyst hours required to clean out the noise. By then, the intelligence is stale. Attacks circle the globe in hours. Near-real-time, verified intelligence is not a premium -- it is the baseline requirement.

The threat detection conversation has also moved well past malware. Anscombe walks through how modern attackers often skip the payload entirely -- credential theft gets them in, then slow lateral movement and data exfiltration follow, with ransomware as the final act rather than the first signal. ESET's platform focuses on behavioral anomaly detection across the full environment, with on-site, cloud, and managed deployment options for organizations that cannot or will not go all-in on cloud architecture.

At RSAC Conference 2026, ESET will be at booth 5253 in Moscone North. Anscombe has two sessions on the Wednesday agenda: one on supply chain blind spots -- urging security teams to engage directly with the business side to map third-party risk fully -- and a community rant session tackling four things that need to change in cybersecurity, including the cryptocurrency regulation debate. On AI, his message is measured: the real conversation at the show is not about using AI -- it is about securing it.

This is a Brand Spotlight. A Brand Spotlight is a ~15 minute conversation designed to explore the guest, their company, and what makes their approach unique. Learn more: https://www.studioc60.com/creation#spotlight
