Guide to your (ISC)² Membership in EMEA: Benefits, Maintenance & Opportunities

This year was particularly challenging for IT security professionals. For a short while, we thought we finally had this pandemic kicked. Then the Delta variant came along, further extending the work-from-home movement and its associated cybersecurity risks. Meanwhile, we saw record-setting ransomware attacks, including high-profile attacks on critical infrastructure, while the shortage of IT security talent worsened. On a brighter note, we saw increased adoption of promising security technologies, such as zero trust network access (ZTNA) and secure access service edge (SASE). 

So, what does next year have in store for the cybersecurity industry? Join Steve Piper, Founder & CEO of CyberEdge (and proud CISSP), as he shares his top five cybersecurity predictions for 2022.

Firewalls, VPN concentrators, IDS/IPS, load balancers, etc., all have one thing in common. They are stateful devices. That makes them very susceptible to DDoS attacks – more specifically, state exhaustion attacks.  To protect these devices from DDoS attacks, you need dedicated, stateless DDoS attack protection technology deployed in front of your stateful infrastructure. Join Netscout and (ISC)2 on December 6, 2021 at 1:00p.m. Eastern/19:00a.m. Pacific as we examine:

· Why stateful devices like firewalls are susceptible to DDoS attacks.
· Why industry best practices (and firewall vendors) suggest deploying stateless DDoS protection in front of your firewall to protect it and other stateful devices.

· How and why organizations should prepare and defend around the first and last line of network perimeter defense to protect the availability and performance of firewalls and other stateful infrastructure from cyber threats.

o  Meet regulatory requirements and demonstrate programme success to your leadership

Building Cyber Resilience with Managed Phishing and Security Awareness Training

(ISC)² officially launched our Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) initiative at this year’s Security Congress event. The conference featured DEI keynote speaker Jane Frankland on the importance of women in cybersecurity, as well as breakout sessions in our InclusionREADY track. These sessions generated great conversations and we received many questions. We’re excited to continue the inclusion conversation on December 1, 2021 at 1:00 p.m. Eastern/10:00 a.m. Pacific as we address many of those questions with our panel.

Continuing the Inclusion Conversation: Your Security Congress Questions Answered

Cyber threats will only continue to rise globally as the ROI of such attacks has unfortunately been proven. Coupled with the emergence of Ransomware-as-a-Service, the barriers for cyber crime to take place have been significantly lowered, causing more to fall prey. Many organizations today use legacy solutions to fight cyber threats, but find that they are losing the race as such methods may be outdated or ineffective. This is apparent when big organizations around the globe are impacted by ransomware attacks. To understand this race better, organizations need to change the question that will help them future proof their organizations against cyber threats. Join ReaQta and (ISC)2 on November 30, 2021 at 1:00p.m. GMT for a discussion on how to stay protected against cyber threats now and into the future.

The Defeat of Cyber Threats Begins with Asking the Right Question

Security teams need new approaches to work with the super fast development cycles that are inevitable when using Kubernetes and OpenShift. New research found 96% of enterprises using Kubernetes or OpenShift recently experienced a security related issue from a workload misconfiguration. One example: developers use non-enterprise approved Certificate Authorities CA(CAs) for TLS machine identities with Kubernetes, OpenShift, Istio and more making initiatives like Zero Trust impossible. These gaps won’t be fix with more controls pushed down from security teams. Developers today decide cloud-native security tooling. Security and developers need to operate in a #fastsecure mode: going as fast as possible while staying safe. Join Venafi and (ISC)2 on November 23, 2021 at 1:00p.m. GMT as open source innovator, Matt Barker, and security leader, Kevin Bocek discuss what #fastsecure means and how you can get started. The developer-led, cloud-native world doesn’t mean that security teams are any less important; just the opposite. Going faster means security teams bring their experience with threat protection, machine identity, risk and compliance to help developers stay safe at highest speeds.

#fastsecure: Security in the Age of Kubernetes

Despite acknowledging its security benefits, many organizations hesitate to implement a Zero Trust model. An "all or nothing" approach to Zero Trust is a tall and unsustainable task. What if you took a more incremental, agile approach that allows your organization to make realistic steps toward achieving Zero Trust? Join Illumio and (ISC)2 on November 11, 2021 at 1:00 p.m. GMT  as we will discuss:

• Why taking a waterfall approach to rolling out Zero Trust is fraught with risk of failure 

• How adopting an agile mindset significantly improves the chances of success of achieving the Zero Trust security goals 

• The six steps to pragmatically build your Zero Trust security program using a repeatable process 

• How security controls like segmentation can help tackle focus areas such as workload protection 

• A demonstration of each of the six steps in action in the context of segmentation – see how an application is taken through the full cycle

Lighting a Path to Zero Trust: 6 Steps to Implementing a Zero Trust Model

Recruiting and retaining qualified IT security talent has never been more challenging. Nearly nine in 10 organizations are experiencing a shortfall, according to CyberEdge’s 2021 Cyberthreat Defense Report. That’s up from eight in 10 organizations just three years ago. This weighs heavily on the minds of IT security managers as ‘lack of skilled personnel’ is consistently rated as one of the top inhibitors to successfully defending networks against cyberthreats. So, what can organizations do to mitigate the effects of this talent shortage? Well, if you’re willing to ‘think outside the box,’ there is hope. Join Steve Piper, Founder & CEO of CyberEdge (and proud CISSP), as he:

Examines the shortage of IT security personnel by job role
Proposes creative ways for recruiting new security talent
Suggests clever ways for retaining the talent you already have

Culture is an intrinsic part of what makes us human – it encompasses the social behaviour and norms found in human societies and their individuals. And, in an ‘always on’ digital society, that can only mean one thing – We Click! We click to open potentially malicious emails, infected files. We click to share information and then we click to share a bit more – all in a simple click of a button.  On September 16, 2021 at 1:00 p.m. BST, join Proofpoint and (ISC)2 as we explore how cultures are formed and influenced by digital, social media, and what role technology has to play in allowing organisations to drive security awareness and cultural change in today’s ‘NEW HQ’.
