Solution Summit Part 1: Shadow Data - The Elastica Shadow Data Report

Cybercriminals must become masters of evasion if they are to be successful. Many threats, such as APT’s, are designed to remain hidden for weeks or longer as they slowly monitor their victim, compromising select information in a way that is also intended to go unnoticed. Others, like ransomware, may only need to hide their malicious intentions long enough to infect and begin encryption processes. And even when these attacks trip some defensive sensor, it can take analysts days to investigate and launch an effective incident response, often too late to prevent significant damage. Join Infoblox and (ISC)2 on June 17, 2021 at 1:00 p.m. Eastern/10:00 a.m. Pacific as we assess evasion methodologies and the value of DNS, with some unique North American callouts, to counter them across the kill chain including:

· Why does DNS visibility expose threat activity other solutions miss?

· How can DNS visibility be used to make other solutions more effective?

· What role does DNS play in investigation and response?

Cyber investigations and Incident Response (IR) stand to benefit more from disruption than any proficiency in security. What should and could be on the leading edge still relies on outdated, people-heavy approaches, and circa 2005 technologies. Shockingly, this is still how some of the biggest players in the industry tackle the most brand damaging cyber events today. This traditional engagement model is tedious; takes too long and costs too much. Smarter, better and faster options are within our grasp. Join eSentire and (ISC)2 on June 8, 2021 at 1:00 p.m. Eastern/ 10:00 a.m. Pacific for an examination of some of the big rock innovations that are accelerating and revolutionizing the IR world. We’ll cover advancements in endpoint and network sensors, and process improvements in evidence acquisition and analysis and will pivot to forward-leaning engagement models converging IR, cyber intelligence and SOC analyst expertise. Other topics to be covered include:

- How modern day cyber investigations and Incident Response can leap off the starting blocks more quickly, with faster time-to-execution and time-to-value for customers.

- How the next generation of cyber investigation and Incident Response will change the game for information security executives who are looking for a leg up when going into battle to protect their businesses from cybersecurity incidents.

As organizations continue to struggle to find trained cybersecurity professionals to build out their teams, recruiters and hiring managers may need to adjust the tactics they use to proactively identify internal and external candidates. Developing bench strength by targeting candidates who have transferable skills can lead to long term depth and stability on security teams. Understanding who to look for and managing their expectations of what cybersecurity roles entail is critical to success. Join Clar Rosso, CEO of (ISC)2 on May 18, 2021 at 1:00 p.m, Eastern/10:00 a.m. Pacific as she provides an overview of the 2021 (ISC)2 Cybersecurity Career Pursuers Study, which surveyed both experienced cybersecurity professionals as well as jobseekers considering a career in the field. The study examines such topics as which tasks and experiences make a cybersecurity professional successful, the value of mentorship, at what point in their careers pursuers seem likely to seek a cybersecurity path, what attracts people to the profession and which qualities rank as strong indicators of future success for team members.

The building blocks of traditional WAN architectures are showing their age. MPLS is expensive and has painfully slow deployment times. Broadband Internet does not deliver the millisecond performance and constant reliability needed for most business applications today. And neither infrastructure was designed with security in mind. Compounding matters further, the surge in remote work and increased cloud adoption is straining traditional WAN architectures. WAN-as-a-service is a cloud-based WAN architecture that offers global scale, integrated enterprise network security functions, and direct, secure connectivity to remote users. Join Cloudflare and (ISC)2 on May 13, 2021 at 1:00PM Eastern for an examination on how WAN-as-a-Service can increase operational agility and lower total costs of ownership and solve the inherent challenges associated with MPLS and broadband Internet.

We’ll also cover:

· What is WAN-as-a-service and what are its advantages over traditional WAN architectures
· How can enterprises build and deploy a successful WAN strategy with fast connectivity and robust security built-in
· How enterprises can increase your operational agility with easy deployment and management of network services
