Cyber Warriors or Cyber Geeks
Traditional lines are blurred. The President of the Ukraine makes a global appeal for any citizen with a hacker skillset to help their cyber war & within one week, 250,000 people join a Telegram account to coordinate attacks against Russia. A retiree invests in bitcoin, only to find all the money’s been stolen from their ewallet. Gas stations in Iran are hacked & the dissident group published the Supreme Leader’s personal phone number for tech support. A cybercrime syndicate provides excellent tech support, to help victims pay ransoms & issues them a receipt. Check Point finds & blocks over 7,000 brand new attacks each & every day.
With all this noise, how do you know from where the next threats will come?
In this session, Eddie Doyle will provide a summary of last year’s interesting attacks, along with predictions for 2022 & some practical advice on what you can do today!

Finding Clarity in Chaos: A Look at the Hardening Cyber Insurance Market
Be it data breaches, phishing emails, embedded malware or ransomware, organizations – SMBs and enterprises, alike – are finding themselves the targets of cyber attacks all too frequently. According to the Theft Resource Center, the number of data breaches in the U.S. in 2021 increased by more than 68% year-over-year, with the average total breach cost nearing $4.24 million.
Cyber insurance has become a necessary tool for many organizations in this increasingly hard-fought fight against cyber bad actors. However, the cyber insurance market is changing fast. Organizations interested in cyber insurance today will likely face higher premiums, stricter underwriting requirements, and policy limitations.
Attend this presentation to get clarity on the current state of the cyber insurance market, the primary benefits of having cyber insurance, and a practical guide for obtaining cyber insurance.

Zero Trust and Microsegmentation – Easier Than You Think
Zero Trust has got to be one of the most talked about themes in cyber security. While the term means different things to different people, there are two things that can be agreed on: it’s a journey worth taking and microsegmentation is a key pillar of that journey. The next question always is how do you get started?
Regardless of the sophistication of ransomware, the end goal is always the same: get in through a vulnerability and move laterally through your network. Join this presentation as we help peel back the layers to provide you simple steps to protect yourself from these threats that include:
- Gaining visibility to where you are the most vulnerable
- Closing risky ports
- Leveraging tools you already have in place without adding layers of complexity
While the journey can seem intimidating, we’ll help you realize that it doesn’t take a team of 100 or a PhD to deploy zero trust microsegmentation that will protect your organization and keep ransomware at bay.

Rethink your Third-Party Risk Strategy in an Uncertain World
As organizations begin to recover from the pandemic, third-party risk management (TPRM) is more important than ever before. Faced with supply chain disruption and cyber threats, businesses are re-assessing their dependence on partners and taking a closer look at the risk they introduce. According to a recent study by KPMG, third-party risk management is a strategic priority for 85 percent of businesses.
How you identify and manage the risks of working with third parties is critical because your compliance, revenue, and company reputation are dependent on all parties fulfilling their contractual, security and privacy obligations. Yet, managing the risk associated with your partners is increasingly challenging.
Join Reciprocity experts as we share and discuss with you:
-
Market Dynamics driving the risk vs. opportunity balance
-
5 key considerations to better identify, manage and mitigate third party risk
-
Real world examples of improving TPRM visibility and efficiency
