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?

Join us for an insightful webinar, "Uncovering Blind Spots: Enhancing Cloud Security Posture Management," where we will delve into the critical aspects of securing your customers’ cloud infrastructure. 

As organizations migrate to the cloud, ensuring robust operating system security has become paramount. This webinar focuses on identifying and mitigating blind spots in Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM).

The State of Cloud-Native Security 2024

Understanding your cloud security posture does not necessarily mean understanding your data posture. Organizations adopting a Cloud-Native Application Protection Platform (CNAPP) to protect cloud-native applications are at risk of leaving data assets exposed. One such risk is shadow data resulting from dynamic changes to data pipelines and services across cloud service providers (CSPs) creating hidden repositories where the data is unknown, undiscovered, or unidentified. Due to the complexity of securing multicloud environments, this can pose significant security gaps leaving cloud teams in the lurch.

In this session, Terry Ray, SVP and Imperva Fellow, and Krishna Ksheerabdhi, VP of Product Marketing, Thales Data Security will discuss how organizations are overcoming these blind spots by effectively leveraging in-depth observability, meaningful analytics, and solid data protection practices to reduce data risk from information that drives business growth.

Join to learn:
• How the rapid growth of cloud-native applications is creating shadow data 
• Why CNAPP falls short for data security, posture, and sensitive data management 
• What challenges do organizations face in gaining complete visibility and control across on-premises and multicloud platforms
• How organizations are leveraging a data-centric approach to protect data at scale

Reining in Shadow Data: Move Beyond CNAPP

In today's generative AI landscape, traditional security techniques fall short in protecting modern AI applications. Cybersecurity teams need to understand the OWASP Top 10 threats specific to LLMs to effectively mitigate AI and data risks. While LLM Firewalls play a crucial role in protection, they are not sufficient on their own to address these threats. The rapid adoption of generative AI, coupled with the rise of shadow AI, use of sensitive data, unknown vulnerabilities, and emerging threats, presents significant security, privacy, and compliance risks.

Join our in-depth webinar to explore the top 5 AI security steps recommended to bolster your GenAI defenses. We will cover:
• Understanding AI and Data Security Challenges: Delve into shadow AI, OWASP Top 10 threats for LLMs, data mapping, and sensitive data exposure risks.
• Implementing LLM Firewalls: Learn to protect your prompts, data retrieval, and responses from attacks.
• Enforcing Data Entitlements: Discover how to prevent unauthorized data access in GenAI applications.
• Enforcing Inline Enterprise Controls: Find out how to safeguard sensitive data during model training, tuning, and RAG (Retrieval Augmented Generation).
• Automating Compliance: Streamline your adherence to emerging data and AI regulations.

Top 5 Steps to Mitigate OWASP Top 10 Threats

The data security dilemma needs to be addressed. Despite a ballooning cybersecurity spend of over $183 billion dollars in 2023, breaches increased by a staggering 78% in the same year. Threat actors increasingly take advantage of the misalignment between security and usability that companies are trying to balance with their data. Legacy solutions using access control and dynamic masking have not kept up with the advancements of our data and AI workloads. Finding a balance between data consumption and security risk is possible, and can deliver significant value. 

Join this webinar to hear about:
• Understand the interplay between data risk and consumption to deliver business value and improve your data security posture.
• Re-examine the role access control and dynamic masking solutions play in your data security strategy.
• Uncover new areas of opportunity to apply a risk-based consumption model into your organization.
Translate a zero-trust data segmentation model into business value and achievable dollar savings.
• Drastically reduce your data’s attack surface, risk of breach, double extortion, third party supply chain, and cloud & AI workload exposure.
