Protecting organization data against cyber attacks, threats and data breaches

When the headline says “Cloud Breach Due to Misconfigured Server,” we’re only getting a small part of the story. Critical information on what really went down rarely becomes public knowledge. 

But in order to keep cloud data secure, it’s essential to understand how attackers are exploiting the cloud API control plane, and expand the blast radius well beyond the initial misconfigured resource in order to inflict real damage. 

In this session, Josh Stella, Chief Architect at Snyk, will walk through the ways control plane compromise attacks happen, and why you need to go beyond traditional cloud security posture management in order to spot the deeper design flaws in your environment that make these attacks possible.

Attendees will gain an understanding of:
-What the cloud control plane is and why attackers need access to it
-How to identify control plane compromise risks in your environment
-Why cloud security hinges with secure design, and where to start

How Hackers Compromise the Cloud Control Plane

Businesses are now spending $170.4 billion on information security annually, according to research from Gartner. Despite this huge investment, IBM's annual security report found that the average cost due to a data breach rose from $3.86 million in 2020 to $4.24 million in 2021, the highest in 17 years. Headlines call out the latest victims, including some of the world's biggest corporations. But how can businesses protect themselves when employees are scattered, data is exploding, and devices are proliferating?

In this expert panel, cybersecurity experts will discuss best practices for proactively protecting your organization from the most common threats, and what to do when a breach does occur. 

Join us to explore:

-- Preventing breaches from external and internal threats
-- Tools and techniques for detection and response

Planning Your Application Ecosystem Landscape to Withstand Multi-Layered Attack

Hackers will never stop their attack attempts, and organizations must be aware they could be breached any second! So tune into this presentation to discover:
• How to best prepare against those attacks? 
• What tools to leverage?
• How can your security team detect even the latest, more sophisticated foes and, most importantly, how can you respond to their attacks?

Join Dr. Erdal, corporate CISO and president of the Global CISO Forum, to learn how you can master your breach detection learning from real-life examples.

The Art of Breach Detection

Today's security operations centers (SOCs) are inundated with an endless stream of alerts, vulnerabilities, and threat intelligence. But the reality is that no matter how large or well-resourced a security operations team, there will always be more work to do. So the next-gen SOC must be calibrated to work smarter, not harder. 

In this webinar you will learn:
•  What are the main inefficiencies in SOC operations.
•  How to use technology to address the inefficiencies.
•  How to use people and processes to address the inefficiencies.

The Next-Gen SOC: Optimizing to Make the Most of Limited Resources

Having a vulnerability disclosure policy (VDP) helps improve network defenses and enhance mission assurance, helping you

launch faster
with less risk
while safeguarding sensitive data

Get the expert playbook on VDPs from the DoD, Keurig Dr Pepper, and HackerOne. In less than an hour, you’ll learn how to create a VDP that expands your vulnerability awareness, builds compliance into your processes, and moves you to a higher level of security.

Understanding Your Attack Surface Through Vulnerability Disclosure

To create secure applications at the speed of DevOps, teams embrace the shift left mantra. But inserting security into app development can appear as a speed bump and even as an obstacle to continuous deployment. If 2021 proved anything it is that securing your applications still has to be priority. But it doesn’t have to be drag. By adopting a DevSecOps mindset and embedding security into the product lifecycle, teams can be fast and secure. 

Please join guest speaker Janet Worthington, Forrester Senior Analyst, and Daniel Shugrue, Digital.ai Sr. Product Marketing Manager, to hear the latest on where organizations are in the shift left transformation, the state of application security, and where teams can dig in to further their DevSecOps efforts.

Create secure applications at the speed of DevOps

As the pandemic continues to affect both business and personal lives, expectations of a ‘return’ to pre-pandemic conditions have faded from most plans. Underlying trends that have always driven information security, such as new technologies, greater compliance mandates and more severe security incidents, continue to be significant change agents. The 2022 Thales Data Threat Report, based on data from a survey of almost 2,800 respondents from 17 countries across the globe conducted by 451 Research, part of S&P Global Market Intelligence, reviews and analyzes these trends and changes.

Many organizations continue to be unprepared for the security challenges of diverse threats, ransomware, accelerating cloud transformation and hybrid work. In fact, according to the report’s survey 21% of all respondents said they had experienced a ransomware attack. Furthermore, 22% of respondents worldwide said they have paid or would pay a ransom for their data.

This webinar will review the changing landscape of data security risks and threats. Specifically, you can expect to learn about:
• Leading sources of data threats
• Ransomware preparedness and how it has changed breach economics
• Breaches and their impacts weigh on security planning
• Data sprawl’s impact on data security
• Cloud usage trends and security practices in the cloud
• Threats of remote and hybrid workforces
• Future threats such as quantum computing

Key Findings from 2022 Data Threat Report - Global Edition

Data breaches increased a staggering 68% in 2021, according to Identity Theft Resource Center's annual report, affecting individuals, municipalities and nation states, businesses large and small, and public utilities and resources. Attacks involving ransomware more than doubled, and the most popular business targets were in manufacturing and utilities. Understanding these trends and anticipating how and why attackers might single out your business operations or employees is critical to mitigation.

This panel of security experts will explore the current state of cybersecurity and how to use threat intelligence and threat hunting to identify risk and avert disaster.

Join us to learn about:

-- The new breed of cyber criminals and why they attack
-- The types of breaches your business should fear most
-- The best sources of threat intelligence 
-- How threat hunting and threat modelling can help your business proactively deter attackers

How to Keep up with the Cyber Threat Landscape

The bad news? Data breaches now play a role in ransomware and extortion attacks, espionage, cyber fraud, business-email compromise, and more. The good news? As security vendors and internal security teams up their game, threat actions are converging, and threat actors now have only so many initial attack vectors to break in and do bad things.

You must simplify your prevention strategy to develop an effective means to stop data breaches, regardless of the flavor of attack. But how?

Join Nick Cavalancia to explore how you can elevate your data breach prevention strategy by viewing it through the lens of threat actor actions. Topics will include:
• Start with the bad guy and work backwards to strategy.
• Focus on initial attack vectors.
• Translate threat actions into practical prevention strategy.
• Lessons from MITRE’s ATT&CK Framework and industry trends.

Use bad-guy trends, tactics and techniques against them for effective strategy

Certain types of unclassified information are extremely sensitive, sought after by strategic competitors and adversaries, and often have legal safeguarding requirements. Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) is government-created or -owned information that requires safeguards or dissemination controls consistent with laws, regulations and government policies. 

Like Personal Data (PD) and Personally Identified Information (PII), CUI is highly-valued information, requiring better understanding by cybersecurity and compliance professionals. 

In this presentation, we dive into the essential aspects of CUI, such as
• CUI concepts and NIST standards.
• The CUI registry, categories and markings.
• What cybersecurity and compliance professionals must know to protect CUI.

Decoding CUI: A Highly Valued Data Type at Risk

Breaches happen by clever and well-armed cybercriminals who use many tactics, techniques, and procedures to infiltrate IT infrastructure, implant malware, and execute attacks. There is a lot at stake, so you need to know as much as possible with little or no delay to minimize adverse consequences.

Network monitoring that pipelines packets from the core network to cybersecurity analysts and analytics is the foundation of detecting and responding. Stealth is an often-used weapon, so monitoring with the highest possible fidelity is necessary to detect increasingly subtle Indicators of Attack and Indicators of Compromise.

This webinar will provide a stepwise plan for achieving faster breach detection and maximizing resilience to cyber risks by showing you how to: 
 
• Instrument any network, physical, virtual, hybrid-cloud, for high-fidelity monitoring to losslessly acquire and reliably deliver network packet data to SOC and SecOps security analysts and the analytics and tools they use
• Capture, store, and organize network packet data for use as security evidence 
• Forensically analyze security evidence to facilitate a rapid and effective response

Faster Breach Detection

We must learn from our mistakes. Exploits work, breach happens, and threat actors succeed because after decades of cyber security effort we are still missing the mark and doing what we know needs to be done to protect digital business. Join Yaniv Bar-Dayan, Vulcan Cyber co-founder and CEO, and Ali Naqvi, Vulcan Cyber senior director of solutions architects, to learn how to avoid the top five mistakes that lead to enterprise security breaches. Join us to:
Learn how your teams can avoid these mistakes and proactively protect against the latest cyber threats.
Learn how to shift to a risk-based approach to vulnerability assessment, prioritization and mitigation.
See a demo of the Vulcan Cyber risk management platform used to help protect your business against Log4Shell risk.
 
Don’t let common mistakes, and known breach vectors like Log4Shell, catch your teams unprepared and vulnerable to the growing number of exploits and threat actors facing our business today.

Avoid The Top Five Breach-Inducing Mistakes and Mitigate Log4Shell Risk

Modern web applications have become complex, heavily reliant on APIs for virtually every online interaction. This complexity brings with it the potential for new entry points for hackers and unfortunately more overhead for the business to manage and track.

Akamai’s Director of Security Technology and Strategy, Sean Flynn, takes us behind the scenes of how attackers look for new vulnerabilities and used obfuscation to prolong Log4J zero-day attacks.

In this webinar, you will also learn about:
- A new reflection/amplification distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) vector with a record-breaking potential amplification ratio of 4,294,967,296:1
- Why do attackers focus more on APIs than traditional applications
- What companies can do to stay ahead of future threats

The Application Attack Threat Landscape - After Log4J

Cybercriminals have an arsenal of tactics at their disposal - phishing, malware, social engineering, email fraud, identity theft (EAC), and ransomware. Successful attacks only need one tactic to work, but companies have to protect against all of them. The number one attack vector is still email and the number one target is still people. 
In 2021, attacks became more sophisticated and volume increased by ~20%. Email-based attacks were more successful with 83% of companies falling victim to successful phishing attacks (up from 57% the year before).

In this session, Mike Bailey will:
• Explore recent trends in the threat landscape
• Discuss best practices of a people-centric security strategy including technology, processes, and people
• Show how a layered, integrated approach can yield success

Fighting Cybercrime in 2022: All for one and one for all

Data breaches are more prolific than ever, with 2021 seeing 5250 confirmed instances involving large companies such as Facebook, LinkedIn, and Ubiquiti. Such breaches are not only a privacy concern, but are also very costly to the involved organization, incurring a loss of $4.24 million on average. The good news, however, is that in breaches where strong Zero Trust principles were employed this cost decreased by $1.76 million.

In this talk we show how Application-Layer Encryption (ALE) can be applied at the database level to provide strong protections against breaches. While traditional at rest database encryption helps protect your data in case of a direct breach, database ALE can ensure cryptographically that even authorized applications have minimal access. This means, that even if your data producing application contains a vulnerability, compromising this application won't give the attacker access to your data. Through the use of modern cryptographic techniques, database ALE can even be implemented without fully sacrificing useful capabilities of the database, such as search.

Philip has a background in mathematical engineering but has always had a strong interest in computer science, a combination which eventually resulted in a PhD in symmetric cryptography. Today he has the technical responsibility for the development of CYBERCRYPT's Encryptonize product.

Preventing Database Breaches with Application-Layer Encryption

When attackers see a way in, they take it.

If you want to stay ahead of attackers, it's time to make the shift from a focus on threat intelligence to risk intelligence.

Today’s security leaders are squeezed between increased risks and attacks, expanding attack surfaces, and decreasing resources, which has them streamlining defense strategies and investments towards what matters most and what exposures are critical. 

Join us for a lively discussion on the current security leadership shift of focus from threat intelligence to risk intelligence. Security leaders will share their journey to the sweet spot: that balance between visibility, priority and value that helps focus their security practices towards confident protection (vs whack-a-mole). Areas covered will include: 
-> Balancing protections inside and outside the network
-> Various ways of prioritizing risk and what doesn’t work
-> Mapping potential paths into and out of your network
-> Merging attack surface management, vulnerability and threat information to identify real risk

Redefining Cyber Intelligence: The Shift from Threat to Risk

Cyber threats continue to increase and are impacting almost all aspects of modern life.  Ransomware, malicious domains, espionage and digital disruption are the most common attacks of recent times.  Understanding how these vulnerabilities and their exploits are changing, provides helpful insights into combatting new threats. Cyber threats change over time, as do the countermeasures that best protect against them like:

• Ransomware
• DDoS (distributed denial-of-service)
• State-sponsored cyber actors
• Social engineering and phishing threats -- increase in sophistication
• Data exportation, breaches and insider threat

Key takeaways:
• Leverage best practices and frameworks such as NIST & ISO 27001 to manage the threat landscape.
• Prompt innovation can help protect against cyber threats.
• Build cyber threats awareness and training culture to test it regularly.
• Consider the source and validity of information when making decisions.

Trends in Cyber Threats and Top Countermeasures

Alignment is the key to a future-proof cloud strategy that can adapt to shifting business needs in any organisation. InfoSec leaders and CIOs  play an important role in guiding all parties toward alignment on the project phases, expectations and outcome. 

In this session we’ll walk through:
- a brief history of zero trust and the 3 main stages
- the unique approach offered by the Zero Trust Exchange, and why a comprehensive zero trust architecture matters

He has over 20 years’ experience in the IT industry focusing on various aspects of Internet Security and Content Delivery. Lee has been living and working inAsia for the past 14 years. He joined Zscaler in 2012.

What are the 3 main stages of Zero Trust and why does it matters to you?

With any cyber-threat prevention strategy, organizations must know the assets connected to their networks, whether these assets are vulnerable to exploitation, and which vulnerable assets should be prioritized for remediation actions. These activities are known collectively as security hygiene and posture management. Unfortunately, organizations often manage these fundamental security best practices haphazardly, opening them up to cyber threats or the ever expanding attack surface. 

In this keynote presentation, ESG Senior Principal Analyst and Fellow, Jon Oltsik, will share new research and discuss the challenges around security hygiene and posture management to explore what companies can do to both address these challenges and establish best practices.

Threat Prevention Anchored by Strong Security Hygiene and Posture Management
