Expert Analysis: The implications of this new EU-US Data Privacy Framework

Description:
Organizations are becoming increasingly reliant upon multi-cloud or hybrid cloud environments to meet operational requirements. These complex environments come with inherent risk due to security gaps, which can be used to exfiltrate data,   exploit systems, individuals and organizations,. It is also difficult to manage  encryption keys, detect unauthorized access and prevent cloud ransomware.
In this podcast, we discuss challenges with data protection, data resilience and privacy in an outsourced environment, along with recommendations on how to control access, improve security, resilience, enable privacy and meet regulatory policies, while remaining agile.
Key takeaways:
● How are organizations maintaining effective data protection whilst adopting new digital technologies to improve agility, customer engagement and support business growth?
● How can enterprises regain control of their data security in a multi-cloud environment?
● What are some considerations for protecting data in these types of environments?
● How can enterprises increase security, resilience and privacy in the cloud without impacting their business efficiency?

At ShardSecure, we often see B2B customers seeking assurance from companies about the protection of their valuable information. Data security has become a critical concern, and both customers and partners want to know how their sensitive data will be safeguarded by the companies they share it with. 

The need for strong data protection exists across many industries, but it is especially important in sectors like SaaS, healthcare, manufacturing, biotech, and finance. Although each industry has unique requirements for protecting data and maintaining compliance, we have identified several top data security features that most B2B customers' request: 

Advanced customer data security and sovereignty requirements 
Simple processes for securing data 
Low management burden 
Support for regulatory compliance 
The freedom to focus on business goals 

In this session, we will discuss each of these features, how they can contribute to an effective data security strategy, and how to easily address them. 

Other key takeaways will include: 
How data security functions not just to protect sensitive information but also to inspire trust among customers. 
How a strong cybersecurity posture facilitates SOC 2 compliance. 
How a robust data protection solution can enhance business partnerships, strengthen organizations’ ability to focus on core objectives, and drive innovation and revenue growth. 
How the ShardSecure platform can help.

How To Address Your Customers’ Data Security Requirements

leafplanner offers a SaaS solution that empowers high-net-worth families to prepare for the future. leafplanner’s application creates a dynamic, regularly updated repository of knowledge about estates, assets, business relationships, family operations, and much more.  The information is highly sensitive and requires:
 
Advanced data privacy: 
The company aggregates crucial documents like trusts, wills, and passports as well as information ranging from complex assets to streaming service passwords. Collectively, these confidential documents paint a highly detailed picture of a family’s personal affairs, making them a valuable target for cyberattacks. 

Data Security is #1 concern of their customers: 
leafplanner also needed to earn their clients’ trust by going beyond standard data privacy technology. Most high-net-worth families operate with a high focus on anonymity, and most are also well educated on cyberthreats by their security teams. Run-of-the-mill privacy measures like MFA and encryption are bare minimums and would not suffice for these clients. 

Easy SaaS integration and SOC2 compliance: 
Finally, leafplanner needed to seamlessly slot the security solution into their existing SaaS application architecture. One of their selling points was ease of use, so the company wanted to make sure that the process of adding and updating family information remained smooth for clients. 

In this session leafplanner will discuss:
- Securing extremely sensitive data in the cloud and the concerns of AWS
- How ShardSecure provides an elevated level of trust and security to their clients
- Why trust is key for all Saas providers in today’s world
- How  preparing for the SOC2 compliance process will be simplified by ShardSecure’s solution
- Q & A

Ensuring data privacy and compliance for ultra-high net worth families

In 2023, data will be king. 
 
It’s the most important and financially valuable element of IT infrastructure. It’s a key focus for security teams, who must maintain business continuity in the face of breaches, adoptions of compliances and regulations as well as pain points around outages, ransomware attacks, insider threats, and more. 
 
Join ShardSecure's Field CTO Julian Weinberger and VP Product Management, Joe Sorial to learn how you can get control of your data, strengthen your security and resilience, and maximize your cost savings in the cloud. 
 
 
Key takeaways from this session:  
 
1. How to achieve data confidentiality in modern infrastructure, where the weakest links are and even enable security for unstructured data.  
 
2. How to ensure data confidentiality for compliance and cross-border data regulations.  
 
3. How can data security and compliance frameworks be introduced without any business interruptions?

“Optimize your cloud storage investments with cost savings and data resilience”

In this short video Julian explains how you can regain control of your data with ShardSecure. In the face of rising storage costs, cyberattacks, and operational complexity, we help companies simplify their data protection. Our innovative solution lets companies enjoy the flexibility and cost savings of securing their data wherever they want: on-premises, in the cloud, or in hybrid-cloud architectures. Organizations can enjoy stronger security and resilience without surrendering control of their data, putting their confidentiality at risk, or redesigning their workflows.

ShardSecure Overview by Julian Weinberger, Field CTO

Successfully transitioning to the cloud requires a solid strategy that balances data protection, resilience, and access with enterprise risk. Please join ShardSecure Co-founder and CEO Bob Lam and his guest Marios Damianides, CISA, CSM, CPA, and Chief IT Risk Officer at Omnicom Group for this fireside chat. 

In this session, they will discuss:

- Practical strategies for data protection, resilience, and access
- Enterprise risk management
- Applicable frameworks and associated certifications

Data protection, resilience, and risk management in the cloud

Maintaining a robust and scalable data protection strategy that addresses both unstructured and structured data can be challenging. Organizations must carefully analyze their options to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of critical data resources in the face of the increasing sophistication of attacks, an expanding threat landscape, and a stricter regulatory environment. While the focus is often on sensitive data, enterprises must also address the availability of non-sensitive data assets, for continued operation. Weak and inconsistent data security practices can lead to devastating breaches that can halt operations and put the enterprise reputation at risk.

In this webinar, we’ll examine how different data protection technologies can be use together to protect sensitive and non-sensitive unstructured and structured data beyond the traditional database model. Our expert speakers will describe how database encryption and cryptographic key management, together with novel technologies such as microsharding, provide comprehensive data protection to enhance security and facilitate auditing and regulatory compliance.

Join the webinar and learn:

• What are the main elements of a comprehensive enterprise data protection strategy
• Why it is important to protect unstructured, structured, and also non-sensitive data 
• How traditional database security is complemented with microsharding technology
