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

What must an organization do to maintain its business and operational excellence? It must build a Modern Security Program based on threat intelligence, predicted outcomes, a layer of defenses and security expertise. That Security Program must be able to prevent, detect, respond AND remediate on a 24 x7 schedule.

Attackers must maneuver through a series of devices on your network to be successful. Your goal as a defender is to be able to observe those maneuvers and deploy defensive actions fast enough to prevent major consequences. This talk will propose a simplification of modern security architecture that will dramatically improve organizations’ ability to investigate at speed, and thus keep up with adversaries.

What is the value of trust for a company, and what role does a security leader play to enable it? Join Advisory CISO Helen Patton in this informative session, where she will discuss the factors that make a company trustworthy, how a security team builds trust within an organization, and actionable suggestions for improving security and trust in your organization.

Following in the footsteps of a cyber-criminal and uncovering their digital footprint. This is a journey inside the mind of an ethical hacker’s response to a ransomware incident that brought a business to a full stop, and discovering the evidence left behind to uncover their attack path and the techniques used. Malicious attackers look for the cheapest, fastest, stealthiest way to achieve their goals. Windows endpoints provide many opportunities to gain entry to IT environments and access sensitive information. This session will show you the attacker’s techniques used and how they went from zero to full domain admin compromise that resulted in a nasty CryLock ransomware incident.
