Security is NOT an Abstract Concept – Building Consensus in the Boardroom
Save your seat
Patrick Grillo, Senior Director, Security Solutions, Fortinet
Making the connection between “Cause and Effect” is difficult enough but when technology executives need to explain their strategy to a non-technical audience, all too often the key message is lost in technical jargon.
When technology is embraced by business leaders, it’s because of the perceived business benefit the technology could bring to the organization. What is frequently not discussed, or even thought about at this level, are the security implications associated with technology. The challenge for the senior technology executives is to be able to associate technology with risk, and risk with business disruption, without resorting to a Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt strategy.
This session will focus on how senior technology executives can better relate to a non-technical audience, using tangible and quantifiable examples, to both inform and persuade of the need of making security an essential component of any business plan.

In the age of Digital Transformation, SD-WAN is on the lips of all enterprises and service providers. While the operational and commercial benefits of SD-WAN are clear, the focus on these as THE consideration is dangerous, as along its benefits comes a greater cyber security risk.

Remind me WHAT This GDPR Thing is all About Again? Patrick Grillo, Senior Director, Security Solutions, Fortinet Recorded: Feb 20 2018 49 mins
Are you Prepared, Blissfully Unaware or in Full Panic Mode?
It’s 2018 and May 25th, aka G-Day (GDPR day), is rapidly approaching. Hopefully your organization is well on its way to completing the necessary steps to bring itself into line with the new regulations. However we all know that the best laid plans always have a way of falling behind.

Hunting the Hunters or Can you cover your cyber tracks to avoid being caught? Patrick Grillo, Senior Director, Security Solutions, Fortinet Recorded: Jan 23 2018 35 mins
While some hackers crave the attention of a high profile attack or data breach, others prefer to work in shadows either trying to hide their tracks or are indifferent all together.
Regardless, accurately understanding where an attack comes from is very helpful in defending against future attacks. More importantly, when companies and key organizations work together it is possible to tie together a multitude of individual footprints into a single, conclusive trail back to the originator.
This session will focus on the importance of attribution and includes a case study of how a major cyber criminal was taken down, from the lowest foot soldier to the kingpin himself.- BrightTALK

Just When You Thought it Was Safe to Jump Back into the Cyber Pool... Simon Bryden, Consulting Systems Engineer Recorded: Nov 16 2017 45 mins
If nothing else, the last 12 months have proved that we can never overestimate what can happen when you combine poor security hygiene with politics, human ingenuity and human error - if we can believe the latest headlines.
Wannacry, NotPetya and Equifax have dominated headlines but it’s not hard to compile a much larger list if you look a little bit deeper. And while past results are no guarantee for future performance, it is that time of the year to look ahead to see what might be in store for 2018. However, looking ahead without taking the past into account can only give a partial perspective.
This Fortinet “Threats on the Horizon” summit presentation will summarize what we have seen so far in 2017 and present our perspective for what we can expect in 2018.- BrightTALK

Securing SDx and Automation Nicolas Thomas, Fortinet Consulting System Engineer Recorded: Nov 7 2017 43 mins
Software Defined everything (SDx) relies heavily on automation. As organizations adopt SDx, daily tasks become more automated and traditional security architectures (such as DC perimeter security) are not enough.
Constant changes automated throughout the system and the integration and separation of responsibilities shake our security habits. In this session, we will look at how security architecture and solutions can adapt to those moving targets and provide the automated approach to make these environments even more secure.
Join us on November 7th to learn how to ensure your operations team don’t put security in too late in the automation game.- BrightTALK
