The public cloud can offload IT requirements and offer better business agility, but recent IT surveys show more than 50% of IT managers withhold sensitive data from the cloud because of security concerns. Most organizations feel that data in the cloud is data out of their control. But now, it's possible to leverage the public cloud while still maintaining data privacy and security.

Join Steve Pate, Chief Architect at HyTrust, as he presents the latest breakthrough in cloud encryption and key management - HyTrust DataControl for private and public cloud infrastructures.

In this webinar, Steve will review how, with DataControl, you can add security and controls in seconds into existing and new public cloud instances by encrypting both Windows and Linux virtual machines.

He will also discuss how HyTrust DataControl has been helping organizations secure data in both hybrid and public cloud instances, with key advantages, such as:

- Strong encryption that is operationally transparent to secure data at rest in the public cloud
- Engineered specifically for the cloud, so security stays with your virtual machines, even if they are replicated or copied
- Zero-downtime encryption and re-keying for maximum uptime
- Easy, integrated key management

We know that you will find this webinar both educational and thought provoking. We look forward to your attendance.

As an IT leader, you are under pressure to thwart ‘shadow IT’ and to deliver the agility and cost efficiencies your lines of business are finding in the public cloud.

Private cloud and software-defined data centers promise this agility, but can introduce greater risk of downtime or breach. Why? Even the most modern, robust hardware and software will still go down if process failure or administrator “pilot error” leads to mistakes in data center operations. And accidental misconfiguration in a highly virtualized environment can impact many more applications than in a traditional, air-gapped data center. As you virtualize more applications and move toward private cloud, maintaining availability at the highest level is absolutely essential.

In this webinar, Rob Babb, Principal Systems Engineer at HyTrust, will give you the lowdown on how to:

• Reduce downtime by preventing accidental misconfiguration

• Prevent large scale errors introduced through automation

• Achieve faster remediation and recovery with platform hardening,
alerts, and actionable log data

• Free up headcount for compliance through automation


We look forward to your attendance!

Whether public, private or hybrid, your organization is undoubtedly moving toward the cloud. But cloud infrastructure requires different security, especially when you want to virtualize mission-critical or regulated applications.

In this webinar, our guests, Forrester Research’s Andras Cser, VP and Principal Analyst serving Security and Risk Professionals, and VMware's Todd Zambrovitz, Senior Manager for vCloud Air, take a deep dive into the fundamentals of cloud security.

You'll learn:

- Why cloud security is different than on-premises methods

- How to approach identity and access management, especially for
privileged administrators

- Why software-defined networking deserves special attention from
a security perspective

- Approaches for securing data in the cloud

We look forward to your attendance!

In the last few years, security breaches have occurred in various shapes and forms and have shaken up many organizations, especially those in the retail industry. Approaches for auditing and assessment vary from one governance, risk, compliance (GRC) company to the next. Simply checking a box for each regulatory requirement is not sufficient. An approach to meet the challenges that go beyond compliance and address an appropriate security posture should be adopted by organizations.

This webinar, presented by Dan Fritsche, Managing Director, Application Security at Coalfire Labs, will help you understand the potential costs of failing an audit or getting breached even after having passed a Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard.

Topics covered include:

Brand Damage
Loss of Revenue
Downtime
Privacy Penalties
Forensics Investigations
Cyber Insurance Coverage

The presentation will also highlight the steps that organizations can take to address cyber-security risks.

Defending against advanced threats is one of the most difficult challenges facing enterprise security teams, and privileged virtualization admin accounts are rich targets.

In this webinar, Chris Morales, Principal Systems Engineer at HyTrust, will explain the "cloud kill chain" - the sequence of actions attackers put in place to gain unfettered access to virtualized infrastructure - and outline what enterprises can do to break this chain. For highly virtualized organizations, the cloud kill chain has the greatest potential to inflict damage while the attacker remains undetected.

Topics covered in this webinar include:

•Privileged Accounts and the Cloud Kill Chain
•The Nature of the Cloud: Today and in the Future
•Cloud Adoption Statistics
•Disrupting the Cloud Kill Chain in three phases

Organizations and agencies are taking full advantage of the flexibility, agility, and cost savings realized by virtualization. This webinar will focus on the operational challenges facing virtualization professionals and managers.

In this session, Jeff Ennis, Principal Security Architect at HyTrust, will examine the cost of downtime, the impact of downtime in a virtual environment, share real-world incidents, and highlight mitigation techniques. Attendees will benefit by gaining a better understanding of why operational integrity in the virtualized environment is critical, and the recommended approaches to mitigate the risk of extended outages.

PCI 3.0 came into effect in January, and it brought big changes to PCI compliance requirements and control implementation. The changes highlight the need to maintain compliance continuously to defend against today’s sophisticated threats, rather than focusing on the annual audit. Furthermore, these changes need to be considered against the backdrop of increasing efficiency through mixed-mode architectures and the audit of the virtualization plane.

Attend this webinar to learn:

• What are the most important new requirements in PCI 3.0?
• How does the “Business As Usual” guideline translate into QSA positions on continuous controls and monitoring?
• How best to implement PCI controls on the vSphere/ESX management plane, including in mixed-mode configurations.

Introducing HyTrust Boundary Controls

Virtualization and the cloud make data security more complicated. Specifically, customers have struggled to implement required controls to meet policies and compliance mandates. A common example, administrators have noted that there has been no automated way to ensure that workloads can only be instantiated on specific, designated, or trusted server, in a trusted location. Until Now.

HyTrust, through its technology collaboration with Intel, has extended its virtualization security portfolio with new capabilities to better secure the most important elements in virtualized datacenters and the cloud - applications and data.

Attend this webinar, featuring Eric Chiu, President and Founder of HyTrust and James Greene, Senior Security Engineer for Intel, to gain a better understanding of how HyTrust Boundary Controls work with common server infrastructures to provide mechanisms to define and enforce tighter geographic restrictions to ease compliance, deter data theft and prevent data center downtime.

What you must know when evaluating cloud encryption

Virtualized environments have unique data security challenges,
especially if you¹re running your infrastructure in the public cloud.

When you consider using Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) from a
cloud service provider, traditional security measures like full drive
encryption don¹t always translate. Virtual machines are dynamic and
mobile, and are often replicated by your CSP for backup and availability. Putting your data in the cloud gives you agility, but are you
sacrificing security?

This webinar, hosted by Steve Pate, Chief Architect at HyTrust, will
review your options and provide you with checklist of capabilities you
should consider when evaluating encryption for private, hybrid or
public clouds. We¹ll address questions like "How should I manage my
encryption keys?" and "How can I securely decommission from a CSP?"

If you are concerned about data privacy and the security of your
virtual machines running in the public cloud, this webinar is for you.

We look forward to your attendance!

The evolution to virtualization and the cloud is inevitable. Companies simply have to be more nimble, reach more users and reduce cost as they migrate away from static security controls that are not flexible and cost effective. As amazing as it sounds, this cloud migration can be supported with dynamic security measures and compliance solutions that are more effective and less expensive over time. The cloud is poised to deliver both a more nimble and secure platform for future growth.

In this webinar, with security experts from Coalfire, Fortinet and HyTrust, you'll learn how to leverage the power of cloud computing and enhance security and compliance at the same time.

Topics for discussion include:

•An overview of evolving industry standards and regulations, focusing on HIPAA, FISMA, and the latest PCI DSS 3.0 updates
•The evolving security challenges and approaches with cloud computing
•What recent cyber-attack statistics reveal about the widening gap between the hackers vs. the “good guys”
•Software defined data center architectures, such as VMware NSX, for enabling agile security
•Best practices for assessing risk management, security and compliance
