Rise of Machines: Protecting your Machine Identities

Logo
Presented by

Kevin Bocek, Vice President, Security Strategy & Threat Intelligence, Venafi

About this talk

The number of machines of all types – from Kubernetes, to cloud, to IoT – is on the rise. Every machine requires an identity – SSL/TLS, SSH, and code signing keys and certificates – that control encryption, authentication, and code execution. Too often these powerful security controls are left unprotected. Compromise, misuse, and fraud of machine identities are already prime attack vectors for hackers targeting supply chain weaknesses. And errors create debilitating outages and millions in lost business. For all these reasons and more, Gartner has named Machine Identity Management a top trend for 2021. Attend this session to learn: · The top machine identity attacks targeting your organisation and software supply chain · How SSL/TLS, SSH, and code signing keys and certificates are left unprotected · How machine identities fail and cost millions in outages · Why most organisations are not prepared to use machine identities at speed · Three things your organisation can do today to stay #fastsecure with Machine Identity Management Presenter: Kevin Bocek, Vice President, Security Strategy & Threat Intelligence, Venafi Moderator: Paolo Miranda, CISSP, Volunteer Outreach Director, (ISC)² Singapore Chapter

There are two actors on a network: people and machines. People rely on usernames and passwords to identify themselves and gain access to machines, applications and devices. Machines use digital keys and certificates to authenticate for secure machine-to-machine communication. While organizations spend billions of dollars each year on identity and access management and protecting usernames and passwords, very little is spent on protecting machine identities, which is essential to securing critical systems and data. The Venafi Platform delivers the machine identity intelligence and automation necessary to automatically safeguard the flow of information to trusted machines and prevent communication with untrusted ones—all at machine speed and scale.
