Managing IT has never been a bigger challenge. Hardware, software, and users can be anywhere at any time, making IT environments extremely dynamic and often complex. A seemingly simple question has become terribly difficult to answer: ‘Who is using what device?’ IT managers have to make decisions that are often based on scattered, out of date, and incomplete data sources. How can you effectively manage the IT of an organization, if you’re not 100% sure of what assets you have to manage in the first place? This question inspired Lansweeper and still drives us today. We believe that answering it is crucial to tackle and simplify many of the challenges IT professionals face every day. Centralized IT Asset Data enables every stakeholder who needs insights into your company’s IT landscape to speak the same language. Connecting and centralizing IT Asset Data to collaborate across silos, locations, and departments is essential. Eliminate the blind spots from your environment and discover assets you didn’t even know about. Lansweeper’s IT Inventory Platform provides you the means to achieve complete visibility into your IT, centralized into one solution, helping you gain an in-depth understanding of your entire IT estate. Lansweeper creates a substantial reduction in the measure of time IT teams would ordinarily spend on routine, yet key assignments, such as network discovery, inventory, software distribution, licensing and updates. This task automation is critical for organizations with restricted staff and IT spending plans. Reveal needless expenses, support budgeting decisions, and manage your IT cost-effectively with Lansweeper The basic premise of good cybersecurity is that you can’t protect what you can’t see. So the critical first step when it comes to basic cyber hygiene is to maintain visibility of your IT environments and develop the relevant daily routines to inspect and verify.

We put our heart and soul into this Cybersecurity Conference directory.
Way back in 2013 we had another website called “Concise Courses” which used to market and sell InfoSec training courses. We published a blog post listing all the upcoming InfoSec Conferences of that year, and Google loved the resource and put us right to the top of the search engines. That ‘accidental’ occurrence spawned this directory which is maintained by a small team comprising of Henry Dalziel and Charles Villaneuva and a bunch of freelance programmers.

We list, literally, every single Information Security conference, event and seminar within every niche in Cybersecurity.

Top 5 Ransomware Myths: What the Evolution of Ransomware Means for Businesses
2021 was “the year of ransomware”. But so were 2017, 2018, 2019, and 2020 – and so far 2022 is not very different. Ransomware is no longer a problem discussed only in the cybersecurity and tech communities – it is now a regular topic in mainstream media headlines and executive board meetings.
So why is ransomware such a menace, and why can we not seem to get rid of it? One of the reasons is that we seem to miss the continued evolution of ransomware – we keep preparing for the last war. Ransomware in 2022 is very different than ransomware in 2017, yet we still treat it the same way.
Richard De La Torre, Technical Product Marketing Manager will help you to learn more about:
- Ransomware evolution and what we need to un-learn to effectively combat it
- The most common myths, misunderstandings, and misconceptions about ransomware and the threat actors behind it
- The most effective tips to become more cyber resilient and prevent security incidents from turning into catastrophic breaches

"Transforming Information Security"
In order to combat cyber threats for organizations of all sizes and the supply chain, how information security is delivered and managed require transformation. The burden of securing systems and networks has long been placed on the end organization, resulting in a distributed management requirements that do not scale. Service providers have an opportunity to aid a positive transformation to better scale security for solutions, with an aim towards improving the overall security posture and reducing the security professional deficit. Innovation to deploy security following scalable architectural patterns is paramount.

Why SOCs Fail - The Maturity Model Required for Cyber Resilience
Billions of dollars are spent annually to set up Security programs and operation centers across every industry and yet, according to Risk Based Security, 3,932 breaches were publicly reported in 2020 alone. Why are Security programs failing? Learn how the current operating model contributes to that failure and how a simple maturity model based on outcomes and use cases can make your organization more cyber resilient.
Key Learnings:
Why an outcome-based approach is the only way to offer effective coverage and protection for your organization
How the most successful Security programs use a comprehensive, strategic and end-to-end focused approach to address 95% of all operational issues at scale
Why it is critical that Security programs become more use case-driven and full lifecycle workflow orientated
