2020 and Beyond: Cyber Trends and how to address them
Not so long ago, the notion of perimeter made sense and was easier to protect. Recently new edges have emerged expanding significantly the attack surface and providing more opportunities for hackers to access this new gold called data. As a result, the threat has been growing in volume and sophistication, by three orders of magnitude. In such context what are the key notions that security professionals need to keep in mind to protect our precious virtual assets and make our hyper connected world a safer place?

Who Accessed Your Data in the Cloud? Your Bosses and Auditors Want to Know.

This session will include:
- Learn the fast path to getting control of your data already in the cloud

Active Defense for the Enterprise of Things
The world is changing... and so is the enterprise. Your organization became a veritable Enterprise of Things (EoT). Traditional PCs, mobile devices, cloud workloads as well as agentless IoT and OT devices. The benefits of this new world are huge. Organizations have flocked to connected devices because of the increased capabilities to support the monitoring and automation of their primary business processes. Add to that the cloud and a rush to a remote workforce, and there's no doubt we're in a new era of device connectivity.
Here's the thing: Everything that touches your enterprise exposes a potential risk. You must see it and secure it. Many of these devices have not been designed with security in mind, and each presents a new door for an attacker to enter and compromise an environment. This is one of the biggest security threats of our time. And yesterday's security strategies and technologies won't solve for this modern threat
Companies want to be custodians of this vast network of devices, not victims of it. This requires an active defense at scale and in real-time. In practice, that means being able to have continuously adaptive protection from threats through up-to-date, cloud-scale risk analysis all informed by the network data from thousands of other customers with millions of devices. That knowledge can then be used to identify, segment and enforce compliance of EVERY connected thing.
Takeaways:
- Secure every device on your network through Active Defense for the Enterprise of Things.
- Use of Segmentation to apply Zero Trust across your Enterprise.
- Reduce risk by simplifying IT and OT/ICS security, compliance and risk management.

Is Digital Transformation Driving the Need for DevSecOps?
There are over 20 million developers working for Enterprise organisations across the globe. The universal desire for faster innovation and Digital Transformation has led to DevOps empowered developers demanding efficient reuse of code, which in turn has led to a growing dependence on open source and third-party software libraries. This velocity means applications are developed faster but it also introduces new security risks.
Join Nick as he discusses how the modern software supply chain and the drive for digital innovation is putting organisations at risk. And whether it is time to empower every developer to be a DevSecOps expert?
Key Takeaways:
- Oversee new cyber risks whilst still supporting new technology initiatives
