Software Development LifeCycle practice has seen a radical overhaul in the last two decades, mainly to address the need to produce quality software within shorter time lengths. This radical overhaul includes the adoption of DevOps principles, tools, and techniques. But rapid software development comes with a greater risk of producing insecure code, so the DevOps principles further evolved to include security, i.e., DevSecOps.

As part of this webinar, we will cover
• Basics of Software Development LifeCycle
• Why DevOps is needed?
• Where does security fit in?
• What is DevSecOps?

The Story DevSecOps

The Apache Log4j vulnerability exploit can be extremely dangerous for organizations. Log4j is the most popular Java logging library with over 400,000 downloads from its GitHub project and the Log4j library is embedded in almost every Internet service or application we are familiar with, including Twitter, Amazon, Microsoft, Minecraft, and more.

Exploiting this vulnerability is simple and allows threat actors to control java-based web servers and launch remote code execution attacks. We’ve subsequently seen new variations of the original exploit being introduced rapidly - over 60 in less than 24 hours. Check Point’s Infinity architecture provides zero-day protection for our customers and prevented hackers from exploiting this vulnerability in our customer deployments.

Watch this webinar to understand: 

1. How to identify log4j attacks
2. Who is vulnerable to this exploit
3. How to keep your organization secure from this attack and future zero-day attacks

The Log4j Vulnerability - Everything You Need to Know

As businesses press on during this time of challenge and change – securing the digital workplace has become more important than ever. Apps and services are being hosted and consumed. Data and workers are hyper distributed. BYOD is on the rise. Use cases are becoming more diverse. The internet and home networks are now vital infrastructures.

In this hyper-dynamic context, businesses have seen a sharp increase in cyber threats.
Amongst this sea of challenges, businesses are being forced to manage competing demands;

• Continue Productivity,
• Increase Security,
• Reduce Cost.

This webinar will cover how Check Point provides a simple yet powerful security solution for the digital workplace in all its forms.

Preparing for 2022: How to Secure Your Hybrid Workforce?

Implementing a DevSecOps strategy - Automating security in application development 

Security is no longer an add-on in the new DevOps world. Rather, it must be implemented and tested early on. If you implement security from the earliest stages of the development cycle, you can minimize the likelihood of vulnerability remediation in the production stage. 

In this session, Nils Ujma, DevSecOps Architect, APAC & Japan, Check Point will share the challenges in applying security into DevOps environments and how Check Point's unique automated full lifecycle security platform can secure your modern-day applications. 

Topics Covered:
• How Developers work and their challenges?
• How to build security in from the start ?

Implementing a DevSecOps strategy

Secure The Network: Why Enterprises Need to Evolve?

The sudden swift transition of the global workforce to the home has forced organizations to make significant changes to their infrastructures. Despite the fact that 97% of organizations have faced mobile threats, 77% of remote employees are still using unmanaged, insecure BYOD devices to access corporate systems. In this presentation, we will discuss the mobile threat landscape in the new world.

Mobile Threats Evolution - What You Need To Know For 2021

Just within a year, Check Point Research has witnessed a whopping 168% YoY increase in the number of cyberattacks in APAC compared to May 2020. In this session, Ashwin Ram, Check Point Software Evangelist from ANZ, discusses some emerging and existing cloud attacks. These are the lessons from the Check Point Incident Response team who worked these cloud incidents for organizations that were attacked.

Tales From The Cloud

With the shift to the cloud, businesses are also shifting their responsibility; relying on traditional SIEM solutions and analytics tools to understand their cloud activities. But analyzing cloud big data is not an easy task, and existing solutions provide only limited visibility with no context to shed light on malicious cloud activity.

In this webinar, Check Point Regional Cloud Security Architect, Sammo Li, will share the latest Cloud Intelligence and threat hunting techniques to stop advanced attacks by using CloudGuard.

What’s lurking in your cloud environment?

Find out how Harmony Email & Office can help you ensure your users remain productive while securing their email and productivity apps environment from all imminent threats.

Securing Mailboxes and Productivity Apps with Harmony Email & Office

These days, your employees are increasingly accessing sensitive corporate assets from their smartphones, so business data is constantly exposed to potential data breaches.
IDC predicts that by 2024 mobile workers will account for nearly 60% of the total U.S. workforce.

At the same time, the attacks are on the rise. 46% of organizations had at least one employee download a malicious mobile application, which threatens their networks and data in 2020.
Mobile Threat Defense (MTD) solutions must now play a critical role in addressing those challenges.

Defending against the Dangerous Wave of Mobile Threats

Securing your data with security compliance

Over 90 % of data in the world today was created in the last 2 years, and any information stored digitally needs to be protected.

Nowadays, more and more organizations have moved their data to the cloud environment, and at the same time, they have to meet different industry compliance standards and requirements.

Lack of visibility, the dynamic nature of the cloud and lack of certainty regarding the location of the payload, all make compliance a challenging task.

Come and join our webinar to understand how Check Point  CloudGuard CSPM solution helps you provide real-time scores of the compliance level, re-conform the compliance with auto-remediation features, and to fulfil the compliance requirement in the simplest way.

The Cloud Compliance: Simplest way to fulfil your compliance needs

Threat actors have stepped-up their activity to prey on remote workers, who may not be as careful of what they click while they browse the internet from their homes. In the second quarter of 2020 alone there was a 3,900% increase in phishing attacks.
