In today's world of global supply chains, a breach never stops at a supplier level but cascades all the way up the chain. So being able to detect and stop a supply chain attack at an early stage before an attacker exfiltrates confidential company data or damages company operations and reputation is critical to your organization's survival. Luckily, hackers always leave a trace, so proper detection can help you stop breaches at an early stage before hackers achieve their goals.

Join us for our webinar, Anatomy of a Supply Chain Attack (Detection and Response), where Progress Expert Pavel Minarik will show you what footprints are left in the network at every stage of an attack and how these can be detected by the Network Detection and Response technology of Flowmon ADS.

Within 20 months, individual EU Member States are expected to transpose the NIS2 and RCE directives into national legislation. It will concern not only critical, essential and important entities, but also National Security Authorities and various accredited CSIRTs.  
 
In this webinar, we will discuss important milestones, individual measures and obligations, and the capabilities of the Flowmon solution, which can help organisations comply with directives and paragraphs of Cyber Security Acts, especially in the area of risk-management measures, network security monitoring and incident reporting.

How to Comply with Current EU Regulations NIS2 & RCE

As technology environments continue to become more complex, cybersecurity challenges are also growing exponentially. The Zero Trust approach has become well-established in the industry, but the relationship between Zero Trust and DevOps is still evolving for many organizations. While leading teams have embraced DevSecOps to integrate security into the development process, Zero Trust teams incorporate compliance into their security strategy.

In this webinar, we will explore how DevOps principles such as Infrastructure as Code can be combined with a Policy as Code approach to automate security across all cloud, on-premises, and distributed endpoints, enabling organizations to detect and resolve security issues quickly. We will cover key topics such as how Zero Trust is related to DevOps, how endpoint security management becomes easier with Zero Trust, and how Zero Trust orchestration can be achieved with Progress Chef.

Join us to learn how you can leverage the Zero Trust approach to improve your DevOps practices and enhance your organization's cybersecurity posture.

Zero Trust and DevOps: Strengthening Cybersecurity in Complex Environments

As IT ecosystems become more complex, security misconfigurations are more likely to happen. According to Microsoft’s Cyber Signals report, 80% of ransomware can be attributed to configuration errors in software and devices. While organizations are aware of the impact of misconfigurations, they face many challenges in managing continuous security and compliance.  

Security and compliance in DevOps are more critical than ever as organizations continue to develop and deploy software that needs to align with regulations, industry standards and internal policies. DevOps teams must also implement appropriate security policies and frameworks. We'll discuss:
-Selecting a continuous compliance automation solution for your organization 
-Mitigating compliance risks for your organization 
-Simplifying compliance with different benchmarks and standards 
-Adopting a Policy-as-Code approach to help maintain compliance

7 Key Considerations When Choosing a Continuous Compliance Solution

Development best practices currently call for organizations to “shift left” with their security efforts by integrating the application security team into the development process right from the beginning. Learn best practices for handling security earlier in the DevOps process.

Shifting Security and Compliance Left via DevOps

Today’s IT infrastructure is an increasingly complex mix of servers, clouds, devices and applications. End-to-end visibility is necessary for network and system administrators to address outages, hardware failures, software performance issues, traffic bottlenecks and potential security threats.

As a result, IT infrastructure management (ITIM) solutions must be able to discover, manage and report on the widest variety of network devices (e.g., routers, switches, firewalls), servers (virtual and physical), and clouds (e.g, AWS, Azure). The more your solution can discover and identify, the easier it will be to implement and automate your monitoring activities.

Progress WhatsUp Gold offers ample out-of-the box monitoring features, helping you to monitor more of what matters to your organization and saving precious time and resources. In our webinar, we’ll use WhatsUp Gold to explain: 

Industry best practices for monitoring networks, servers and clouds

The Impact of Infrastructure Automation: Real Examples

As today’s networks grow increasingly complex, your network application and security teams are all struggling with network communications, hidden threats and misconfigurations. Each of these issues allows various vectors, increasing the likelihood of a cybersecurity incident. Often an incident occurs because an organization lacks a single pane of view, the right information sharing, and an automated, inter-departmental workflow.  

The solution is a combination of network anomaly detection and response automation, deep network traffic analysis and data collection, which together can provide clear insights into “what’s really going on” in your environment.  

In this webinar, Progress solutions expert Filip Cerny will introduce you to Network Detection and Response (NDR) and discuss:  

- Why network visibility matters 

- How to use network visibility in daily cross-department operations (and get the most out of it) 

- Why network visibility is key to building a resilient security architecture

Your modern IT infrastructure has become an increasingly complicated mix of on-premises, public and private cloud applications, devices and environments. Forward-thinking organizations are addressing this complexity by transitioning to a proactive “observability” approach for infrastructure management. This methodology produces and then applies actionable data to optimize and secure the entire network.

But moving from theoretical to practical observability takes thoughtful planning and the right platform. In this webinar, we will discuss:

- What is observability and why is it critical to your network operations?
- What do we mean by highly distributed environments?
- The types of data collected and used for observability
- The factors you must consider when selecting an observability platform

How to Achieve Full Stack Observability in Highly Distributed Environments
