Modern Security Programs – IT Evolution to Security Revolution

The IT Revolution we have experienced over the last few years has forced organizations to rethink their security program.

The IT Revolution we have experienced over the last few years has forced organizations to rethink their security program. The degradation of the perimeter, the growth of micro-services, cloud migrations and human behavior are all factors that can bring an organization to its proverbial knees.

What must an organization do to remain secure? It must build a Modern Security Program that combines visibility, data analytics and security expertise. That Security Program must be able to prevent, detect, respond AND remediate on a 24 x7 schedule.

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.

Managed Detection and Response (MDR) continues to have significant growth and expected to be over $2 billion in the next 5 years. Many consider this a conservative estimate and there are differing views around MDR so this session is going to focus on answering three questions:

  • Is MDR is right for the organization you represent?
  • What should you consider for effective detection and response?
  • How does a managed approach enable security outcomes?

With Incident Response as the new normal, ensuring that our systems and processes support that effort and threat hunting are working as expected. We will discuss why and how to establish a Continuous Security Validation (CSV) program within your organization. Specifically, how such a program evolves beyond Breach and Attack Simulation (BAS) and provides teams a continuous feedback loop to understand their posture and identify gaps as they arise
