Myth or Reality: Insider Threat Victims DON'T Have Their Heads in the Cloud

Jadee Hanson, Director of Security at Code42, provides a behind-the-scenes look at what it's really like to run an insider threat program -- a program in which you can take steps to prevent employees from leaking, exfiltrating, and exposing company information. This webinar will provide cloud security professionals with insider threat examples (and why you should care), recommendations for how to get buy-in from key stakeholders, and lessons learned from someone who has experienced it firsthand.

Security automation strategies are a necessity for any cloud-scale enterprise. There are challenges to be met at each phase of developing and deploying security automation including identifying the appropriate automation goals, creating an accurate view of the organization, tool selection, and managing the returned data at scale. This presentation will provide the details of various of open-source materials and methods that can be used to address each of those challenges.

Today's organizations face complex challenges as a result of exponential data growth and rapidly evolving ​cyberthreats. Furthermore, as companies move to cloud, it's inevitable that technologies will need to be replaced -- and what may have worked five years ago is no longer a viable solution for today's mobile workforce.

In this session, you'll hear​ from IT professionals at F5 Networks and Harvard University, as well as​ a Code42 expert​ as they ​discuss:
- Why all endpoint backup isn't created equally
- How outdated or insufficient backup solutions leave you with gaps ​that put user data at risk
- ​​What technical capabilities you should ​look for in your next ​backup solution

Though one of the most mature industries in cybersecurity, the Financial Services industry has seen some of the largest explosion of innovation and technology. While startups and innovators are focused on speed to market and leveraging cloud infrastructure and cloud platforms as a service, the need for security in financial technologies is paramount.

In this session, Miguel Ramos will use case studies and his experience to outline key steps that can be taken to secure financial technology innovators, and explain how traditional, cloud and potentially even blockchain technologies can be used by corporations to ensure the security they need to drive business forward.

Data security has a tendency to be intimidating for organizations, users and implementers. Organizations see the value but the challenges of applying a data security solution. Wouldn’t it be great if there were solutions that took the guesswork out of data protection and key management?

In today’s data driven environment, there are strategies and technologies to protect data that do not have to be the high-risk propositions feared by organizations, users and implementers - IT professionals. By thinking of data security and key management as data t protection enablers instead of obstacles, you can easily protect data across the infrastructure and beyond. Data security and key management need to interact with the data and the users in a seamless way that doesn’t disrupt their processes or destroy the characteristics of the data.

During this webcast we will discuss some of the findings from the CSA Security Guidance v4 report and how data-centric security can help mitigate and manage many of the risks. Think of security as an enabler instead of an obstacle for cloud adoption.

It’s become clear that organizations need to overcome the challenges of securing hybrid enterprises. Hybrid IT spans platforms, tenancy and locations, which when using traditional solutions often results in a fractured security architecture without a centralized single policy, view or enforcement point. With this shift to hybrid, organizations need to embrace CSA’s Software-Defined Perimeter (SDP) specification to enable a new, transformational approach. Using SDP results in precise network security, automated network policies, reduced compliance effort and reduced attack surface.

In this session, we’ll summarize the progress that’s been made with the CSA’s Software-Defined Perimeter (SDP) specification over the past two years, and show how and why an SDP approach enables organizations to overcome the challenges of securing hybrid environments. We’ll conclude this session with a case study, showing real-world benefits achieved by enterprises that have deployed an SDP architecture.

It's becoming impossible for cyber security to keep up with paradigm-changing technological advancements which provide fertile new hunting ground for the more sophisticated cyber-criminals. You can't enumerate all possible attacks while calculating probabilities and impacts for each. We need to narrow things down. But when we reach for data, we drown in reports, dashboards, and alerts. We don't need more undigested data. We need answers. Enter threat intelligence. Useful threat intelligence is not data feeds of indicators without context, but interpretation that boils things down to provide recommendations so you can operate safely in the new Internet age. Threat intelligence demystifies the swarm of noise and connects the dots into threads that demystify what is really going on. We'll look at what good, actionable threat intelligence looks like and how you can use it to neutralize potential attacks before they strike. We'll look deeper at the threats against and originating from cloud platforms.

Join this in-depth interview at RSA Conference with John DiMaria, Global Product Champion for Information Security & Business Continuity at BSI Group.

Viewers will learn John's insights around:
- Preparing for GDPR
- Challenges for the new U.S. administration
- Protecting our critical infrastructure
- Protecting the IoT: personal accountability, product certifications, regulation
- The threat landscape
- The importance of security awareness training

Defending against human ingenuity demands a new way of thinking. With countless dollars spent and infinite alerts you still don’t have a true picture of what is going on. So when a breach happens, can you answer THE question: “How bad is it?” The inability to do so is what RSA calls the “gap of grief.” To answer, you must connect your security strategy and business risks.

RSA’s cybersecurity expert, Peter Beardmore, will provide perspective on this important issue during this pointed webcast designed to help security leaders:
- Learn how to garner the right visibility, in the right context to defend what matters most – and fast;
- Discover the 6 steps to take command of your evolving security posture in this uncertain, high risk world; and,
- Find out what it takes to link your security strategy with your business priorities.

When kicking off a cloud security project, you'll quickly discover that there are multiple deployment options for a cloud access security broker (CASB) – Log Collection, API, Reverse Proxy, and Forward Proxy – delivered via the cloud, on-premises, or hybrid - and with or without agents. But which CASB deployment mode is right for your organization? It depends on which use cases you need to support across which users and devices.

In this webinar we’ll share an objective overview of the use cases each CASB deployment option supports. Just as importantly, we’ll detail which use cases each deployment mode does not support and provide case studies explaining how companies like Aetna, AstraZeneca and Western Union leveraged various deployment architectures to cover all their key use cases (visibility, compliance, data security, and threat protection) across O365, Salesforce, Box, and Shadow IT.

Since March 2016, when the CSA launched this new Software-Defined Perimeter for IaaS initiative, more and more organizations have embraced the Software-Defined Perimeter model and are benefitting from the seamless protection it offers, whether on-premises or in the cloud. SDP can better protect IaaS services for Enterprise usage, and deliver uniform and seamless protection of on-premises and IaaS resources, enabling cost savings and agility, and a more dynamic infrastructure.

In this webinar, the leaders of the SDP-for-IaaS initiative will provide a preview of the forthcoming research and use cases that this working group has developed. This research focuses on how SDP can uniquely address security, compliance, IT administration and management challenges for cloud service providers and enterprises alike. If you’d like to hear more about securing your IaaS workloads, you’ll want to attend!
