Deep Observability - giving visibility of all your mission critical traffic

Comment soulager les équipes d’exploitation dans la sécurisation d’un stack applicatif en augmentation dans les environnements Cloud Hybride ?

 



Le cloud hybride offre souplesse et scalabilité mais il accroît aussi les risques, car la surface d’attaque face aux menaces se trouve augmentée. Le cloud est devenu la nouvelle cible de cybercriminels cherchant à bénéficier d’infrastructures de calculs (Cryptomining), mais aussi à dérober des données sensibles comme en atteste la multiplication des cyberattaques depuis le début de la crise sanitaire.

Lors de cette session, Gatewatcher et Gigamon passeront en revue les bonnes pratiques et vous expliqueront en quoi l'association de leurs expertises permet d'offrir la visibilité et la détection nécessaire sur l’ensemble des flux réseaux pour détecter les cybermenaces visant les infrastructures physiques, Cloud public ou Cloud privé.

Comment détecter les menaces avancées dans un environnement Cloud hybride ?

The Covid-19 pandemic has forced communications service providers (CSPs) to alter how they operate their networks and deliver solutions to their customers. Digital transformation was already a strategic priority, but the pandemic has increased its importance and clarified the benefits: improved customer experience, reduce risk and costs and increase profits.
We have observed increased demand for both network volumes and availability, and this has placed greater emphasis on network visibility and security and a core challenge will be transitioning to a virtualized, service-based architecture whilst minimizing risks and costs.
During this Summit, we will discuss how network providers can optimise the cost of monitoring and securing their networks for a 5G future. How to optimise and shape the data traffic to effectively understand their customers and enable new digital services for growth.

Leveraging traffic shaping and monitoring to optimise network performance

You have all the cloud monitoring and security tools in place. Would you agree that it’s still difficult to: 
 - Have complete visibility and eliminate blind spots, like hybrid cloud application activities and container communications, and discover and monitor unmanaged hosts/apps and IoT? 
 - Provide comprehensive security, such as detect and respond to network-based threats, enumerate hosts on the hybrid cloud network, and support shared responsibility and Zero Trust frameworks, particularly as it relates to network traffic? 
 - Detect unwanted activities, such as shadow IT, crypto-mining, and P2P and torrent traffic? 
 - Comply with network-related compliance and SLOs, such as extending on-premises policies, controls, reports, and practice knowledge to cloud apps? 

Obviously, no security posture is 100% attack-proof. However, bringing the “network perspective” to hybrid-cloud workloads makes it easier to address the challenges above, and more. 

At this session we will dive into several use cases and we will demo the yet untapped advantage the network perspective brings to cyber defense.

Your Cloud Workloads Are Fully Secure, Right?

Gigamon recently co-hosted a thought leadership panel for cable and service providers with CIO Talk Network.
 
With millions of subscribers relying on service and cable providers for their entertainment and business needs, the security and reliability of the networks are critical. Any network downtime means enormous financial losses and dissatisfied customers. Evolving ransomware and other cybersecurity threats are only making matters worse.
 
So how are industry leaders shaping their security strategies, rethinking resiliency processes, and leveraging best practices to manage such menacing cyberthreats and ensure compliance proactively?

Creating a Winning Cyberthreat-Ransomware Management Strategy

Virtualization remains at the forefront of the data center, and is extending into the cloud to enable true hybrid and multi-cloud environments. These environments aren't an island and demand an ecosystem of solutions to perform at the level demanded by a company's applications.

To ensure those applications perform well and are highly available across the company, smart companies are leveraging innovative new technology, efficiently integrated into their VMware infrastructure.

The Tools that Supercharge a VMware Environment

Zero trust is increasingly a guiding principle for modern cybersecurity programs. With an ESG survey finding that for 51% of enterprise respondents it’s the top driver of adopting zero trust - ahead of reducing the number of cybersecurity incidents and supporting Digital Transformation - there’s no denying that zero trust is now central to cybersecurity modernization. 
You may ask: ‘Weren’t organizations starting to implement zero trust before the pandemic?’ While that’s certainly true, the leap in adoption of cloud services since March 2020, and the increased dependency on cloud infrastructure, has undoubtedly changed the game. As a result, it’s time to both reexamine zero trust’s applicability for securing growing cloud footprints and increase your knowledge of new zero trust use cases. In episode 3 of Revisiting Threat Models in the Cloud Era Doug Cahill, Senior Analyst at ESG, is teaching organizations how to apply zero trust in new cloud infrastructures and why it’s so critical today. 

Make sure you join and learn:
- What ESG’s definition of zero trust is
- What the scope of zero trust is and essential zero trust use cases
- How zero trust is different to default deny and the way enterprises have treated access previously
- If ZTNA is replacing VPNs
- What the role of monitoring in a zero trust approach is
- And more

[Ep.3]  Zero Trust for the Cloud Era: New Use Case Insights

The world is constantly changing and now more than ever, already pushed-to-the-brink IT departments are being called upon to help their organizations continue their transformation efforts, to reshape the end user computing experience, and to ensure that IT is secure, compliant, and financially sustainable. Legacy approaches to modern problems may still have a place, but as IT leaders and professionals work to ensure that their platforms are suitable for new needs, it's clear that thinking needs to revolve around supporting a new generation of IT and business.

Enterprise technology vendors are working hard to help their customers bring sanity to the madness through the development of solutions intended to solve critical business problems. Today’s enterprise IT solutions are supercharging the traditional IT organization with next-generation innovations, making what was seemingly impossible, possible.

Profiling and Posturing your IoMT Network

Think your backups are a panacea for ransomware defense? Think again. Traditional backups are no longer enough and despite ransomware being a popular business model for cybercriminals for years, it’s gaining relevance with supply chain attacks, and big game hunting - attacks on enterprises - are increasing. Graff, JBS, Colonial Pipeline and software manager Kaseya are just some of the businesses held to ransom recently. With Colonial paying $4.4 million and JBS $11 million, it’s more essential than ever that CISOs are clued up on the latest in threat intelligence as enterprise ransomware attacks become more targeted and less ‘spray and pray’. 

This rise of ransomware is coupled with the shift from remote to hybrid working, which has seen the number of remote endpoints and intruder attack space both increasing exponentially. It’s the perfect storm, and organizations must know how to effectively battle ransomware by planning ahead and preparing for the inevitable. In episode 2 of Revisiting Threat Models in the Cloud Era, Doug Cahill, Senior Analyst at ESG, is sharing his expert opinion on exactly how to do that. 

Make sure you tune-in and learn:

- New insights into the shift to enterprises being attack targets and why
- Why ransoms have increased and what the role and relevance of cybersecurity insurance is
- Essential information about the threat actors themselves and how have they changed their approach to monetizing extortion
- Specific best practices for ransomware cybersecurity that businesses must implement
- And more

Lunch & Learn: Exposing Ransomware-as-a-Service

Why organisations need to quickly change the way they think about IT monitoring.

The technology environments used by organizations to deliver business services has seen one of the most dramatic shifts in the past five years. Most organizations now operate a heterogeneous estate, that comprises on-premises legacy, on-premises hybrid cloud, to multiple public clouds. This increase in infrastructure complexity is further complicated by the mixture of software environments being used as IT departments deploy VMs and cloud-native on the same infrastructure. One of the fundamental requirements is to have visibility into all these different technologies, so that management can make critical decisions. In this webinar you will:
• Discover why observability is so important when managing complex heterogeneous environments.
• Learn that monitoring and automation must operate seamlessly together to meet user expectations of service delivery.
• Understand that not all monitoring and observability solutions provide the visibility needed to ensure real-time decisions can be made.

Presenting is OMDIA’s Roy Illsley Chief Analyst, IT Ecosystem & Operations reviewing his latest multi-cloud research findings along with Bassam Khan, Gigamon’s Vice President of Product and Technical Marketing Engineering.
