The clock is ticking on the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) coming into effect and while there isn’t wide scale panic yet, lots of organizations are either 1) in denial or 2) just coming to grips with its implications.

The difficulty with GDPR is that the regulation states the “WHAT” but pretty much is silent on the “HOW”. The overwhelming majority of the regulation deals with process, procedure and is it really necessary to collect the data and stresses the rights of the data subject. How to protect the data, in movement and in rest, is left to individual organizations to decide except for the vague mention of “continuous risk assessment” and “state of the art”.

Another major change from the existing national regulations, which were enacted during the mid to late 1990s, GDPR takes into account the massive change in how technology plays in everyday. To protect the data subject, the punitive aspect of non-compliance is significant with penalties of €20M or 4% of annual turnover, whichever is GREATER.

So in this confusing and changing environment, where do cyber security technologies come into play?

This session will focus on the role of the underlying network in any organization’s GDPR compliance efforts and how to take advantage of certain aspects of GDPR to avoid the substantial penalties associated with the regulation.

We all know that technology plays a role in our everyday life but do you know the extent of that role? Advertising tells us to spend more and more of our life online and embrace technology in our homes, cars and everywhere else a microchip can be placed.

But nowhere is there a message about the consequences of the misuse of that technology. 2016 has seen a rise in the number of incidents involving ransomware, IoT, and simply well intentioned connectivity gone wrong. That momentum is set to continue into 2017 and beyond.

Although past performance does not guarantee future results, this session will focus on what we have seen this year and what we expect to see in the near future.

The firewall wars have caused nothing but confusion in the market. Lines have been drawn between UTM and NGFW; are they different or are they the same thing? Unfortunately that confusion has led to introducing complexity and vulnerability in enterprise networks. There is a better way. Rather than fighting through a sea of acronyms, focus on what’s really important - How can I simplify my security infrastructure and improve my ability to fight off advanced attacks, no matter where they occur in the network?

This session will present a new way of thinking about firewalls, one without the confusion, acronyms and complexity.

During the past 15 years, access layer solutions have evolved, especially in terms wireless connectivity.

Today's wireless connectivity has multiple approaches, each better meeting the specific requirements of organisations through a choice of different architectures. Whether its a refresh, redeployment, change of application or a brand new site, there are a lot of options.

During this webinar we’ll examine different approaches and how to apply them to different verticals or deployment scenarios. As wireless connectivity continues to evolve, we will also look to the future and see how trends in new hardware can provide cutting edge solutions to meet the potential needs of tomorrow's organisations.

The presentation will end with an overview of Fortinet's Secure Access Architecture and how it can meet today's and tomorrow's wireless requirements.

More and more solutions are crowding into the market but data breaches are still happening and there’s no end in sight. Is an over reliance of technology creating a false sense of “everything’s okay”? This session will focus on the three key aspects of comprehensive advanced threat protection; technology, awareness and in particular the role of threat intelligence.

Ransomware is an ever-increasing threat to enterprises and new strains are being seen on a regular basis. This presentation starts by tracing the history of ransomware from its roots as being not much more than an annoyance, to the current highly sophisticated encrypting varieties.

Following this will be a deep dive into how the malware is delivered to the victim, and an analysis of the different stages of an attack.
Finally, we will look at methods of mitigating the attack in order to minimise or eliminate the damage done.

The Data Center is not an island. It is part of a complex ecosystem, working and evolving together for the overall benefit of the enterprise.

Data Center security can no longer be treated as an island. It must integrate and interact with the overall enterprise ecosystem and security infrastructure to provide a real-time, effective security posture.

This webinar will present a high level view as to the importance of deploying an integrated, end-to-end enterprise security platform for achieving data center security.

Because sometimes, the best data center security solution has nothing to do with the data center!

The headlines are full of claims by security companies having the key to solving the problem of Advanced Persistent Threats (APT).

However, on closer inspection it seems that while the technology that they’re touting is interesting, it’s only a partial solution because it only addresses part of the problem.

In today’s changing threat horizon, attacks can come from anywhere, at anytime and in any form. An effective Advanced Threat Protection (ATP) capability must be able operate in the same manner - everywhere in the network, with any technology and fully collaborative.

This webinar will present and focus on the following:
1.The range of technologies needed
2.How to close off exploitable gaps with common threat intelligence
3.Technology is only part of the final solution

This webinar reviews some of the headline attacks and threat events of 2015, then asks what can be learned from them. After looking at some of the trends and directions that today's attacks are taking, it looks at key challenges facing the enterprise, and how they can be addressed by leveraging the latest developments in security technologies, combined with constantly updated threat intelligence.

Wireless is now the expected medium of choice for network users. Delivering it successfully can be a challenge especially with multiple different approaches and architectures available. What is right for your organisation? Cloud? Controller? How is it all secured?

This session will discuss 3 main Wi-Fi architecture types, their different advantages, the wired edge, and how to secure it all. Importantly, we will finish with what to consider when making the right choice for your needs.

As organisations embrace the latest IT technology, such as Mobility and Cloud, the traditional network boundaries are becoming increasingly complex to control and secure. There are now many different ways into an enterprise network.

Organisations have focused on building defences across the borders of their networks, leaving the internal network flat and open. However, advanced threats use this to their advantage because, once inside, they get free access to the entire enterprise network and assets.

In this webinar we will present:
1.The state of enterprise security
2.Hard on the outside and chewy on the inside – internal network risks
3.Internal Segmentation Firewall to the rescue – protecting the network from the inside-out

With the growing adaptation of Software-Defined technologies as the foundation for enterprises’ data centers, private & hybrid clouds and overall IT agility, security infrastructure transformation must take place to efficiently integrate with the Software-Defined ecosystem and become software defined itself. This presentation will highlight the need for Software Defined Security (SD-Security) and Fortinet’s framework to deliver optimized security for the Software Defined IT.

This session will look into the factors why major data breaches continue to be a recurring theme, in spite of the wealth of information over the past two years that should be helping enterprises to avoid being the next victim.

Enterprise data centers are evolving to deliver higher performance and agility, driven by rapid adoption of mobility/BYOD, big data, cloud and SaaS. At the same time, data center security needs to guard against ever more sophisticated attacks, while keeping up with rapidly increasing bandwidth requirements.

In this session Jose Grandmougin, Fortinet Director of System Engineering, will focus on the absolute need for high performance, hardware based firewalls in today’s data center and why yesterday’s data center firewalls cannot meet today’s challenges.
