About this talk

Today’s most popular security tools focus on protecting the perimeter—they manage endpoints and patch system vulnerabilities. But cybercriminals are no longer targeting infrastructure - they are targeting humans. It's the distracted user who clicks on an email attachment, or the eager customer who fills in credentials in a pixel-perfect phishing page who is vulnerable. It's becoming more and more evident that employees and regulated users need to be at the center of your strategy when building a robust cybersecurity approach in the era of highly sophisticated attacks. So how is that achieved? Join Proofpoint for a joint presentation with Osterman Research as we deep dive into some of the biggest challenges CISOs face, and why developing a people-centric strategy to security is the most effective way to protect your most valuable assets: your data and your people. In this session, we'll share: - Latest research findings on new methods for solving security attacks such as phishing and business email compromise - Why cybersecurity transformation is critical for protecting your people against today's threat actors - What it means and looks like to have an effective people-centric approach *This session is eligible for CPE credits with ISC(2).
