AI vs. AI: How bad actors (and security teams) are using this tool

BlackBerry Technical Marketing Director, Adam Sloan highlights the importance of visibility for your organization by providing the ability to detect and present a list of known devices which are unprotected in this brand new update to CylancePROTECT® from BlackBerry.

How to discover your organisation's unprotected devices

BlackBerry Technical Marketing Director, Adam Sloan discusses an important update to CylanceOPTICS® from BlackBerry which allows Administrators to have explicit control of the Remote Response feature whilst providing the ability to implement specific whitelist IP address and port pairs to define permitted communication to systems whilst under lockdown.

How Custom Lockdown Profiles help protect your endpoints

With the undersupply of cybersecurity professionals across the industry and with no sign of cyber threats slowing down, this makes a security leaders working environments become more complex. Some organisations are facing up to 25K+ alerts per day and continually rising, as a result their security team has difficulty maintaining their cybersecurity environment, building cyber resiliency and ultimately prone to be the next ransomware victim.  

Join Jonathan Jackson – Director Sales Engineering, from the BlackBerry Cybersecurity team in APAC to learn: 

• Proactive management best practices by leveraging new unified alert management capabilities, automating your security
• How you can take advantage of solutions with new rich features for simplified and enhanced predictive security.

It’s time to outsmart and outlast modern cyber threats.

Optimising Human Hours  - Best Practice for Proactive Cyber Incident Management

As enterprise infrastructures have expanded in scope and complexity, so too have the cyberthreats that target them. In today’s digital-first environment, legacy security controls are unlikely to be able to stand up to the volume and sophistication of these attacks. Even newer security software may be overwhelming and require nuanced human intervention, which is not always accessible due to the continuing security skills shortage. To address this, some organizations are turning to managed extended detection and response (XDR) services, to strengthen their cybersecurity capabilities.

Managed XDR can be useful not just for greater technological heft, but also for advanced strategies and expert assistance. Security programs must simultaneously handle prevention, detection, response, and recovery, in order to reduce the impact of any potential cyberattack. ESG has found that, by outsourcing to an experienced managed XDR vendor, organizations have reported both improved security efficacy and operational efficiency. From noise and cost reduction to security program development, identifying the right partner could make all the difference in your security outcomes.

In this webinar from BlackBerry and ESG, industry experts will assess the full impact that managed XDR can have on security programs.

Tune in to learn more about:
— The challenges security operations teams are facing today
— What makes a managed XDR service different from a traditional MDR service
— How managed XDR can be leveraged in high-risk situations, in real time
— What the security program long game could look like, with XDR support
— And much more

Strengthening Security Program Outcomes with Managed XDR

Recent cyberattacks serve as stark reminders that no one is safe. There is zero immunity from dedicated threat actors, and anyone operating in the digital space may be targeted next. 

With the rise of malicious hacking attempts occurring every 39 seconds, organizations will exhaust themselves relying on reactive security measures. Fortunately for CISOs and security practitioners, it’s not all doom and gloom, and constructing a proactive cybersecurity approach to fend off these threat actors is possible. 

Join experts from BlackBerry to fast track your knowledge on proactive cybersecurity approaches that utilize Contextual Threat Intelligence (CTI) and the MITRE ATT&CK® framework to secure yourself against adversaries.

Additionally, in this session you'll learn how to develop countermeasures with CTI and mitigate targeted attacks like APT.

Cobalt Strike (CS) is the most widely used advancend adversary simulation and threat emulation software. It's very powerful, for both good and bad actors.
CS delivers a post-exploitation framework that was developed to emulate the greatest features of late-stage malware ecosystems and allow its users to simulate adversary actions. The adoption of Cobalt Strike by global threat actors, and the framework’s use in hundreds of genuine intrusions, ransoms, and data breaches, shows that Beacon has fought its way to the top. It currently sits on the throne as the reigning champ of all malware toolkits. If it works, it wins
The session will demonstrate how the security and threat intelligence community can proactively prevent their organisations from falling victim to the growing threat of Cobalt Strike Beacons and Team Servers.
Learn how to turn the tables on APT groups and malicious threat actors - become the hunter instead of the hunted.

It’s time to outsmart and outlast modern cyber threats.

The Evolution of Prevention-First Cybersecurity

The drastic increase in the number of devices has spawned a rise in mobile malware and cyberattacks as more and more organisations are adapting to a hybrid workforce. 63% if greyware apps leak the devices phone numbers and nearly 1 of 5 business and industry apps leaks personally identifiable information (PII). As businesses continue to allow for more mobile devices to be connected to their IT network, adversaries have been quick to exploit this expanding attack surface, as old school security approaches or systems to manage these endpoints can no longer keep up.

Traditional enterprise mobility management (EMM) solutions in place often lack prevention, visualisation, and management capabilities needed to efficiently incorporate mobile devices into the overall security architecture. Standalone products, for example, often furnish only a mobile-centric view of threat activity.
 
Security executives need to go beyond traditional EMM solutions and embrace a rapidly emerging class of mobile security capabilities known as mobile threat defense (MTD), to protect vulnerable endpoints and ultimately preventing security incidents within their organisation.

Join Adam Sloan – Principal Sales Engineer, APAC live to learn:
- How you can leverage Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning to optimise your mobile threat defense strategy.
- How to monitor mobile threats across layers to prevent malware infections and minimise SecOps overheads.
- How to implement endpoint management and protections across endpoints, people and data to prevent mobile security breaches and data loss.

How AI and ML is Applied to Cybersecurity and Why it Matters

We've entered the ‘Age of Ransomware’. Today’s attackers are hitting harder, faster and the costs are only getting higher. Between Jan – Apr 2021, more than 290 enterprises were hit by 6 ransomware groups. The collective ransoms for these businesses totaled over US$45 million.

Join Tony Lee to learn how the predictive advantage of an AI-enable protective endpoint security solutions has allowed security veterans to weather the storm unimpeded, preventing the threat before it ever has a chance to execute and proactive steps you can take to avoid becoming the next victim.

Ransomware Defense Playbook – Lessons From The Front Lines

The security professional’s job has become an endless game of cat-and-mouse, continually pursuing invisible attackers that can out-think, out-run, and outsmart most security systems. To combat these and other threats, 
enterprises are increasingly turning to endpoint detection and response (EDR) solutions that provide advanced 
endpoint protection.

To be sure your endpoints aren’t the weak link against cyber threats, it’s time to embrace the new approach to EDR, with a prevent-first approach built on a strong artificial intelligence (AI) foundation for threat prevention.

Please join our product marketing expert, Baldeep Dogra, who will take us through the following: 
• EDR’s role in a Prevent-first approach
•	Endpoint Security – responding to the market challenges
•	Adopting an EDR-first approach – a ‘Prevention Paradox’

The ransomware threat landscape continues to evolve. Over the past six months, the BlackBerry Research and Intelligence team has noted several troubling new trends, including a substantial increase of ransomware written in languages such as Java and Go. One recently discovered example is Tycoon, which the team profiled in a BlackBerry Threat Spotlight. Ransomware-as-a-Service (RaaS) groups are becoming more selective in vetting their affiliates. Scattershot approaches are giving way to highly targeted campaigns that are often deployed via compromised Managed Security Service Providers (MSSP). Threat groups are adding blackmail to their extortion toolboxes, exfiltrating and threatening to expose victim’s data and inform regulatory authorities if their ransom demands are not met. 

Join BlackBerry security experts for an in-depth analysis of today's emerging ransomware landscape and a discussion of best practice strategies for reducing ransomware risks.
