Make a Plan to Replace Your SEG Workshop

Too many security practitioners spend half their day managing email—handling missed attacks, investigating user-reported messages, and managing rules and policies. The legacy email security solutions most organizations still use were never designed to address modern threats like social engineering or AI-generated attacks, leaving security teams to protect their largest attack surface with insufficient tools. This workshop explores how security practitioners can simplify email security by eliminating legacy secure email gateways (SEG). Dan Nickoliasen, solutions architect with Abnormal Security and email security veteran, will help attendees understand why modern attacks continue to evade gateways, how a new architecture can address the question of protection, and what replacing the SEG will do to unburden security teams from manual work. In this interactive workshop, attendees will: - Discuss why SEGs have become interchangeable and commoditized in their detection value - Begin a configuration inventory and map core capabilities of a modern cloud email security solution - Create a business value case appropriate for executive review on the impact of migrating away from the SEG - Walk away with a clear plan of action to automate SOC operations and modernize email security architecture Participants are eligible to earn 1 CPE credit from (ISC)² upon completion of this workshop: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeXpNB-pZ-mhmRUQCxme-d5JCj_4lDYyxVyRHiDBb2ypV5xfQ/viewform
