Exploring Cyber Threats & Breach Prevention 2021

It’s said that 60% of SMEs in the healthcare industry will be breached; 90% of those breached will be bankrupt and out of business within one year. 

Breaches may not start at the database layer but they certainly end there, making the fallout devastating. SMEs are often targeted because their patient data is just as valuable as large organizations, but they may not have as robust a resource set to keep it secure.

Security leaders Gerry Miller of Cloudticity and Steven O’Neal from Remver, both experts in software implementation and disaster recovery for the healthcare industry, join cloud database security expert David LeBlanc of SecureCloudDB to discuss:

- Attack entry points in cloud computing
- Regulatory consequences following a breach and HIPAA violations
- How to best focus cloud database security management efforts
- Using healthcare-focused risk assessments to reduce risk of breach
- Best practices for recovery 

Whether you work for a SME or large enterprise, this panel will offer practical advice about how to best mitigate a breach and prevent business loss. Come with questions!

[Panel] Managing & Mitigating Healthcare Data Breaches in the Cloud

At SecureCloudDB, we pride ourselves on helping customers protect valuable data in the public cloud. We help organizations secure AWS database services, databases hosted on Amazon EC2 instances, and database migrations from on-premises to the cloud.

This is critical because security in the cloud is a shared responsibility.

AWS is responsible for protecting the hardware, software, networking, and facilities that run AWS Cloud services. Cloud customers are responsible for protecting their data, which means correctly configuring databases, ensuring encryption, applying appropriate permissions and more. Moreover, what worked to secure on-prem data centers doesn’t always work—or even apply—when it comes to protecting your cloud databases.

SecureCloudDB is built specifically for public cloud databases.

Our software provides a complete database inventory across all AWS accounts, checks configurations and performs real-time Database Activity Monitoring in order to build a 360-degree view of vulnerabilities and how to fix them. Users can stack security rules together to create customized cloud policies. Reporting includes user assessments, security risk scores that track how the risk profile is evolving, and much more.

SecureCloudDB is an AWS Select Technology Partner that:
Integrates with AWS Security Hub for consolidated, real-time alerting
Simplifies and automates remediation with AWS Lambda functions
Offers its cloud-native database security application in AWS Marketplace

Our complete security approach complements AWS security tools while covering the gaps that on-prem database security tools do not address.

Join us to learn how to safeguard sensitive data, fight cybercrime and ensure compliance of AWS cloud databases with SecureCloudDB!

Leveraging SecureCloudDB to Enhance Database Security in the AWS Cloud

This session is designed for Managed Service Providers. 

With 75% of databases expected to be deployed or migrated to the cloud by 2022, organizations are preparing for elevated breaches that will come with the expanded attack surface of the cloud.

In fact, Gartner predicted that the Cloud Security market saw an increase of 33% in spending for 2020 and expects this trend to continue. Organizations are concerned and want to mitigate risk, but protecting data in the cloud is challenging. 

Traditional tools do not address the architectural differences, increases in accesses, and expanded attack surface that characterizes a cloud environment. Cloud providers' native tools focus on compute, network, and storage security but exclude databases, leaving organizations vulnerable to attack.

This presents a global opportunity for Managed Service Providers to help. 

Tune in for a discussion on how to deliver best-in-class managed security for cloud databases, including:

- Ways to open customer conversations and upsell security services 
- How to minimize misconfiguration and human error as well as fend off attacks
- How to automate processes and make them scalable
- What to look for in security tooling

Learn what you can do to reduce the risk of sharing malware from your cloud object storage and protect your users, customers, and partners.

Securing Amazon S3 in the Age of Covid19 (with AWS Partner Solutions Architect)

Ransomware is an increasing threat and has cost organizations millions of dollars. When an organization does not have backups that are inaccessible to the attackers, the disruption of loss of operations and loss of customer data is often significant and publicly embarrassing. 

One of the most compelling reasons for having data and processes in the cloud is that cloud providers supply easy-to-use backup options and the ability to quickly restore systems to an earlier version. When an organization’s backup is run by the cloud provider, it is beyond the reach of criminals who would engage in extortion and ransomware.

While moving data to the cloud solves many problems, it sometimes results in new challenges and organizations need to be aware of configuration options and activity monitoring that are unique to cloud providers.

This session takes a look at ransomware in the context of cloud databases, including complexities and best practices to mitigate threats.

Cloud Security 2021: Emerging Trends, Threats, and Responses

Join us as we dive deep into recent trends that have made cloud object storage the center pin for countless enterprise applications and an emerging threat vector for malware and viruses. Since the onset of Covid 19, cyber attacks have increased in number and severity as hackers take advantage of remote work. Ransomware alone has seen a 47% increase in the severity of attacks, on top of a 100% increase from 2019 to Q1 2020.

The session will examine multiple types of successful hacker attacks on Amazon S3, including details and recreation of how an Amazon S3 bucket can be compromised with ransomware. We will move quickly into why these buckets ended up vulnerable and what types of steps security professionals can take to minimize the success of these attacks.

Historically data was stored on network drives, NAS and SAN devices, and other hardware housed in on-prem data centers. As this data has migrated out of the proprietary data centers and into the emerging public cloud (IaaS) environments, the existing tools, policies, and skills needed to secure the data must keep up with the changing world. Our panelists will share best practices on how to bolster security for Amazon S3 utilizing AWS Native Security Services and new ideas and solutions that directly mitigate malware risk on Amazon S3.

Securing Amazon S3 in the Age of Covid 19

A significant portion of IT infrastructure has moved from proprietary data centers into public clouds. According to Gartner, 80% of enterprises will eliminate their traditional data centers by 2025.  What does this mean for database security? How can organizations best protect their crown jewels — the data stored in cloud databases?

Organizations have a security strategy for on-premises databases; they need a separate one for the cloud because managing and protecting databases in the cloud requires a tailored, cloud-native approach. Network security doesn't cover it all. Nor does operating system security tooling. 

This webinar examines the techniques needed to manage and secure resources in public cloud databases. Designed for CISOs, DevOp Engineers, MSPs, Auditors and others who are responsible for data security in the cloud, topics will cover:

- Architectural elements and why “zero trust” is a must
- Database inventory considerations
- Best practices for assessing security and managing risk
- Cloud requirements for activity monitoring
