About this talk

In recent months, attackers have targeted large political and sporting events, taking advantage of human error and major organizations’ cloud environments. Cyber attacks are more sophisticated than ever before, and due to the commonality of cloud-native technologies and services, detecting potential threats has become more difficult. Cloud attacks are fast, and attackers can inflict critical damage on an organization in minutes. DevSecOps teams are progressively trying to keep pace with the many layers of increased complexity in their cloud estates. Once an organization is subject to an attack, they have approx. 5 sec to detect, 5 mins to correlate data, and 5 mins to respond before the damage is done. We are witnessing DDoS and MFA attacks on a global scale more frequently. All organizations are subject to large numbers of vulnerabilities, but not all pose an immediate risk. Using threat intelligence can improve future operations, preparation, and deterrence. In this interactive session, Graham Cluley, podcaster and independent cybersecurity analyst, and Jonathan Care, expert cybersecurity advisor and former Gartner analyst, will discuss past and present cybersecurity concerns on global events such as the Olympics and elections, some of the more recent attacks to hit the headlines, the common challenges faced by DevSecOps teams in these cases, and strategies to overcome these hurdles effectively. Join our expert panelists addressing specific concerns and providing actionable advice. Discussion points Real-World Hack Stories: recent security breaches Olympics, elections, and global events Challenges in DevSecOps. Common obstacles faced by teams in integrating security with DevOps Strategies for Overcoming Challenges: Best practices for fostering a security-first culture
