Cyber Weekend delivers plenty of holiday cheer for customers and online retailers alike. Last year it delivered record revenues topping $68 billion in the US, and as much as $281 billion worldwide. 

A reliable, fast, and fair user experience is essential for a successful Cyber Weekend. However, many factors can stand in the way. Traffic spikes — a common occurrence in the holiday season where too many users can overwhelm your applications and infrastructure with legitimate traffic — can lead to slow performance or downtime. Add to that malicious automated traffic, from bots like Grinch bots that can hoard inventory, and the impact to your business outcomes is only made worse.

When used together, Cloudflare Bot Management and Waiting Room not only protect your site reliability but also enhance your customers’ shopping experience. Discover how you can safeguard your business from overwhelming traffic spikes and greedy Grinch bots, ensuring a smooth and successful holiday season.

In this webinar, you will learn how Cloudflare:
- Protects your services from sudden traffic spikes to ensure a fast and reliable end-user experience
- Prevents bad bots from hoarding inventory and overwhelming your site
- Can maximize your savings with our limited time offer

Strategies for handling traffic spikes and bot attacks

Application programming interfaces (APIs) drive every aspect of business today — and their influence will only continue to grow--as will the risks they pose to business. Join us as John Engates and Saikrishna Chavali of Cloudflare explain what today’s business leaders need to understand about the benefits — and security concerns —associated with APIs. In this free one-hour webinar, moderated by business and technology journalist Wade Roush, you’ll learn:

● What APIs are.
● How APIs affect everything from transactions to mobile apps to supply-chain
relationships.
● What you need to know about potential data exposure from APIs.
● What to ask your security team about mitigating API risks.

Leaders in cybersecurity, infrastructure, and IT are invited to join this annual roadshow featuring a critical topic today – Everywhere Security. We know that companies like yours are trying to drive an agenda of transformation while reducing risk, securing your hybrid workforce and managing a multi-cloud environment. All the time, threats are relentless, the talent shortage is real, and vendor sprawl means costs and complexity are spiraling out of control.

- Participants can expect a stimulating discussion in a closed, confidential environment.
- Attendance is by invitation only and complimentary.
- Registration is limited to a certain number of guests per event.

Cloudflare's "Everywhere security" Roadshow

Whether you call them browser supply chain attacks, 3rd party dependency attacks, Magecart style attacks, or anything else, compromised JavaScript dependencies are hard to detect, even with the best security teams. Compromised dependencies, such as in an analytics plugin, a chatbot, or a credit card payment tool, can compromise your users’ security and data – not to mention run afoul of regulations like PCI DSS compliance. 

Join this session to see our client-side security in action and learn how to integrate defense against browser supply chain attacks into your app security posture to:

- Monitor and track 3rd party scripts loaded in your web apps 
- Alert on changes to those dependencies 
- Comply with client-side security requirements in regulations like PCI DSS

Defending against client-side browser attacks

As a go-to productivity suite for many businesses, Microsoft 365 delivers excellent native security defenses to help teams collaborate and communicate safely. 

Over the years, built-in security for SaaS apps has improved to block some of the more common threats targeting organizations. However, bad actors are simultaneously evolving to become more evasive. Today’s attacks are increasingly more targeted and sophisticated with the ability to bypass native app security functionality. 

In this webinar, learn how layering a Zero Trust approach to enhance your Microsoft 365 security can proactively stop attacks and significantly minimize cyber threats like phishing, data exfiltration, account takeover, and more.

Join this session to:

Deep dive into how this joint solution targets Microsoft 365 security challenges and threats
Study the customer & vendor shared responsibility model for Microsoft security
Understand how Cloudflare Zero Trust services such as Area 1 Email Security, CASB, and Access can prevent, block, and isolate threats across Microsoft 365

Employees, applications, and infrastructure exist everywhere today – across geographies, cloud environments, and hybrid work settings. Managing this sprawling attack surface is challenging, and the wrong IT and security strategy can add complexity, inhibit productivity, and ultimately hold your business back.

In response, many modern enterprises are shifting their IT and security controls to a unified cloud platform that can deliver consistent, fast, and rigorous protections everywhere. Cloudflare helps customers reimagine their security approach to protect employees, applications, and networks – and is on that same strategic journey itself.

Join senior Cloudflare leaders Maha Pula (VP, Global Head of Solutions Engineering) and Jacqueline Keith (Senior Manager, Security Engagement) as they discuss:
- Common challenges and pitfalls organizations face when modernizing security
- Lessons learned from Cloudflare’s own security evolution
- The advantages of consolidating security onto a single platform, powered by an intelligent global network

Everywhere Security: How to secure employees, applications, and networks

With phishing campaigns still proving to be one of the top methods for breaching an organization, threat actors are increasingly targeting individual users through multiple channels of communication (email, web, SMS, and more). These multichannel threats deploy complex and evasive methods that bypass traditional security controls. The goal is simple —  trick users into clicking malicious content, paying fraudulent invoices, or divulging sensitive information. 

Multichannel phishing is emerging as a preferred method for exposing users to a wide range of threats. The rapid adoption of hybrid work has fueled this trend as well, providing additional opportunities for threat actors to capitalize on digital channels that support the productivity of remote workers.

In this webinar, we’ll go in-depth on why multichannel phishing attacks are so dangerous, how users are being exploited through their use of email and web browsing, and what can be done to insulate users from these malicious threats.

Join this session to learn more about:

- Multichannel phishing campaigns
- How attackers are exploiting users through email and web browsing
- Protecting against multichannel phishing attacks – without disrupting user productivity

Moving to the cloud was billed as a way to save companies money, but the reality is that cloud spend is filled with hidden costs, and as your company grows, so does your cloud bill. Excessive cloud bills hinder innovation, limit architectural decisions, and divert money away from other areas needing investment. You soon learn that costs slowly creep up as your company scales due to the need for more seats or increased egress fees. 

Join this webinar as we discuss various topics related to cloud spend including: 

- How to scale your business without scaling your cloud costs 
- What egress fees are and how you can avoid them
- How you can avoid vendor lock-in and empower multi-cloud for your business

How to lower your cloud spend

As the concept of Zero Trust has gained momentum, organisations have embarked on initial projects to enhance their security posture. These projects often involve implementing multi-factor authentication (MFA) for critical applications or transitioning from VPNs to more advanced solutions. 

While Zero Trust conversations often focus on network security, we believe it is essential to address email security as well. Cyber risks associated with email attacks continue to pose significant threats to organizations. In this webinar, we will shed light on the critical role of email security as a vital component of a comprehensive Zero Trust strategy. 

Join this webinar as our Zero Trust experts discuss and demonstrate live what you need to do to go beyond the initial steps and projects to build a Zero Trust platform that provides the flexibility to secure hybrid work holistically:

- Extend beyond VPN augmentation with ZTNA and remote browser for an extra layer of security
- How to protect users and data with a Zero Trust approach
- Reduce cyber risk through email security, which is essential in the Zero Trust conversation

Accelerate your journey to Zero Trust with Email Security

It’s a new year and DDoS attacks continue to impact the availability of critical services. Cloudflare mitigated the largest DDoS attack on record launched from new VPS-based botnets — a change from traditional IoT botnets. We also saw pro-Russian hacktivist groups launching multiple cyber attacks against Western targets. And ransom DDoS attacks continue to plague organizations large and small.

Join this session to learn key trends from our Q1 2023 DDoS trends report and the key defenses you need to ensure business continuity through what is expected to be another busy year for DDoS attacks.

The State of DDoS Attack - Q1'2023

Today, as much as 40% of all Internet traffic consists of bots: non-human users of websites and apps. Unfortunately, much of this bot traffic is malicious. And as malicious bots become more prevalent and sophisticated, truth and fiction sometimes blur together, making it difficult to understand how bad bots can impact your organization — and what you can do to prevent them.

Join Sumit Bahl, Product Marketing Manager for Cloudflare, Poornaprajna Udupi, Chief Technology Officer at Good Money Group, and Anand Guruprasad, Solutions Engineer at Cloudflare, to take a closer look at some of the most common false assumptions about bad bots — and how your organization can stay bot-free by taking a more informed approach to defense.
