Unisciti a Pietro Felisi, Senior Solution Architect, per una dimostrazione di hacking dal vivo che rivelerà i limiti degli strumenti di sicurezza tradizionali negli ambienti cloud.

La Multi Factor Authentication sotto attacco: simulazione dal vivo di un attacco informatico

In the cybersecurity arms race against criminal hackers, constant innovation is needed to effectively defend against fast-evolving threats.

It's not just cybercriminals that we need to keep up with. Regulatory agencies and cyber-insurance providers require state-of-the-art protection. So, sticking with outdated security and access controls can be costly in terms of fines and higher premiums, not to mention increasing direct risks from attackers.

Join our webinar ‘Zero Trust made easy: Comprehensive network security’ to see for yourself how easy it can be to implement zero trust network access (ZTNA) across your entire extended network, using an advanced Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) platform such as Barracuda SecureEdge.

Don't miss this opportunity to find out about the comprehensive, integrated network security, including ZTNA, that leaves your IT team free to work on core operational priorities rather than security management.

Zero Trust made easy: Comprehensive network security

Cyberkriminelle entwickeln zunehmend spezialisierte Werkzeuge, um Endpoint-Security-Lösungen gezielt zu deaktivieren, bevor sie ihre Angriffe starten. Diese sogenannten „EDR-Killer“ können Schutzmechanismen umgehen und Unternehmen unbemerkt angreifbar machen.

In diesem Webinar erfahren Sie, was geschieht, wenn eine klassische Endpoint-Lösung einem realistischen Umgehungsversuch nicht standhält – und wie Managed Endpoint XDR Bedrohungen sofort erkennt, das betroffene Gerät automatisch isoliert und den Angriff stoppt, bevor er sich ausbreiten kann.

EDR-Killer stoppen – mit Managed Endpoint XDR auf der sicheren Seite

In this webinar we’ll explore what happens the moment attackers breach your network. See exactly what attackers see when they breach your network – and how to shut them down before encryption begins.

We look forward to welcoming you to the webinar.

La MFA sous attaque : simulation d’une cyberattaque en direct

Large Language Models (LLMs) and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) are reshaping application interfaces by placing AI at the core of user interactions and data flows. APIs and LLMs now power autonomous agents, linking prompts, retrieval, and actions—creating new risk surfaces such as data leakage, prompt manipulation, model governance gaps, and API abuse.

A Web Application Firewall (WAF) acts as a critical guardrail, intercepting malicious requests and grounding AI outputs in trusted sources. During this session, we’ll present a live demo showcasing real-world threat scenarios—including unsafe prompts, manipulated responses, and data leaks—and demonstrate policy enforcement, threat detection, and rapid remediation aligned with OWASP AI/ML guidance.

Securing AI Interfaces: WAFs, Prompts, and the AI Attack Surface

Cyber threats are evolving - and MSPs are expected to keep pace without expanding internal resources. This webinar shows how you can protect your clients’ Microsoft Entra ID environments, deliver 24/7 endpoint protection, and add high-value, recurring revenue services using Barracuda’s Managed XDR Suite.

Join an exclusive, live event where you’ll step into the shoes of a cybercriminal. In this guided hacking simulation, you’ll experience an account takeover attack from the inside — and see how fast modern defenses strike back.

Inside the breach: A live attack experience

Cybercriminals are using multiple techniques and technologies to launch more effective attacks at scale, increasing risks and costs for organisations like yours.

AI-enhanced phishing, phishing-as-a-service (PhaaS), malicious QR codes (quishing), and multi-path attacks that combine two or more of these techniques — these ever-evolving threats demand equally innovative solutions to detect them before they can penetrate your system.

Attend this webinar to gain a thorough understanding of the latest generation of email-borne threats and how they operate to bypass many existing security defenses — and to discover how new security capabilities leverage AI analytics and processing to effectively combat them.

Don’t let your organisation fall behind in the AI-based arms race between cybercriminals and security. Reserve your spot at this eye-opening webinar right now, and get the info you need to stay ahead.

Identity is now the new security perimeter, yet many organizations still treat identity management as a tactical IT function rather than a strategic priority. NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 changes this by introducing a "Govern" function, emphasizing executive oversight, board accountability, and continuous risk management for identity infrastructure.

In this webinar, experts from Omdia and Barracuda explore how NIST 2.0 reshapes identity management across six core functions. Topics include:

· Elevating identity governance to a strategic business function with accountability and risk assessment
· Extending zero-trust principles beyond multi-factor authentication to the entire identity lifecycle
· Using behavioral analytics and automated responses to counter identity-based threats
· Recovery procedures for identity restoration and data validation

Discover how NIST 2.0 provides a roadmap for treating identity infrastructure as critical business infrastructure.

Barracuda is out with its latest Spear Phishing Update, and among the key findings: a rise in email account takeover and lateral phishing. Why are enterprise defenses failing to detect these strikes? What new solutions will improve defenses? Barracuda's Michael Flouton shares insights.

How significant are the threats from email account takeover and lateral phishing? "Quite simply, these are extraordinarily difficult attacks to prevent," says Flouton, VP of product strategy at Barracuda. "In fact, I'd go so far as to say they're virtually impossible to prevent."

In an interview about the latest spear phishing trends, Flouton discusses:

Highlights of the Q2 report;
Why account takeover and lateral phishing are so difficult to detect;
How Barracuda is helping organizations bolster spear phishing defenses.
