Cloud Native applications and Services are the workhorses of modern cloud environments. They hold most of the organization's crown jewels and are therefore often the target for insider and outsider threats. Existing cloud security posture management and hardening solutions (CSPM) as well as real time detection and response solution (EDR) operate in Silo mode and are therefore failing to provide systematic security across the lifecycle of Cloud Native assets.

In today’s fast-paced, multi-cloud world, Identity and Access Management (IAM) has become the cornerstone of enterprise security architecture. As traditional firewalls lose effectiveness, identity now serves as the ultimate control surface, ensuring that only trusted users—whether human or machine—can access the right systems, at the right time, and for the right reasons. But what makes a successful IAM strategy?

This webinar will introduce you to the new 7 A’s of Identity and Access Management, a comprehensive framework for managing identity across: Authentication, Access Control, Authorization, Administration, Attributes, Audit, and Availability. Each of these functions plays a crucial role in protecting your organization’s identity data, ensuring compliance, and boosting your overall security posture. By understanding and applying these concepts, you can lay the foundation for identity-first security in your organization and empower a more flexible, scalable, and secure approach to managing identities.

Join Eric Olden—co-author of the SAML standard, author of Identity Orchestration for Dummies, and CEO of Strata Identity—and host Mark Callahan, Chief Solution Storyteller, as they walk us through each of the 7 A’s, providing real-world examples of how enterprises are putting them to work in today’s complex cloud environments. This thought-leadership session will explore the challenges and opportunities facing organizations in the era of Zero Trust identity and provide actionable takeaways to help you build a resilient and secure IAM strategy.

Cloud Threat actors are exploiting vulnerabilities and compromising identities to gain unauthorized access to resources in the cloud. With the escalating frequency of cloud-specific threat vectors, cloud security needs to evolve beyond posture management to threat detection and response across all cloud workloads. Watch this webinar with cloud security experts to learn more about:

• What are cloud-conscious adversaries, and how do they operate? 
• Why does cloud security need threat detection and response?
• What makes detection and response different in the cloud
• How multi-cloud workloads can be protected through cloud detection and response

Defending Against the Cloud Adversary: Detection and Response in the Cloud

The phrase “it's not if, it's when”, has been around for decades. However, businesses still aren’t prepared to recover or resist and therefore be resilient to major incidents. In today’s digital landscape, SaaS data is the lifeblood of every organization, and for compliance leaders, safeguarding this critical asset goes beyond traditional cyber security measures—it's about ensuring continuous data protection, compliance, and resilience against growing threats.

Join us this Cyber Security Awareness Month for an exclusive webinar focused on data in SaaS applications like Salesforce, ServiceNow, and Microsoft Dynamics.  We’ll explore ways to preserve the integrity of historical data and changes needed to build trust in your digital future.

The webinar will cover:
• What causes this lack of preparedness and how do we combat it? 
• How can we more accurately estimate the impact and prepare to ensure core operations will continue?
• Proven strategies for fast identification and recovery from unauthorized access and breaches in SaaS applications.

This session will equip you with the tools to build a resilient foundation for swift recovery from cyber attacks. Don't miss the chance to review your data security strategies and ensure your organization is prepared.

Cyber Attacks: It's not if, It's when! Why aren't we prepared?

Uncovering Gaps: Enhancing Cloud Security Posture Management

Data is one of the most frequent targets for cyberattacks and also one of the hardest assets to protect. With growing data volumes, increased regulatory requirements and the shift toward AI, organizations face significant challenges in understanding which sensitive data they hold, who has access to it and where it’s exposed.

To regain visibility and control, organizations are exploring data security posture management (DSPM) and data detection and response (DDR) solutions. These technologies help discover, classify and secure sensitive data, providing the necessary tools to manage data risks effectively in an increasingly complex digital landscape.

Watch Prisma® Cloud's webinar to hear from our senior product marketing lead, Sharon Farber, and gain a better understanding of how to:
• Get started with data discovery and classification in cloud complex datastores.
• Discover agentless tools that allow you to see a full picture of data risk in your environment within 24 hours, without impacting other business operations.
• Monitor data and respond to incidents in near-real time.
