This session will take a look at how organizations can bring their own security, specifically encryption, key management and access management technologies to their cloud environments and take a centralized approach to applying these technologies to protect data and secure access to all of their cloud environments.

Is Native Cloud Security Enough?

Zero-Trust is a hot industry buzz word with no shortage of solutions from a myriad of vendors.  The greatest challenge has been implementing a comprehensive solution that covers identities, devices, and data end-to-end.  Deploying multi-vendor piecemeal solutions becomes expensive to operate and often leaves exceptions that hackers identify and exploit.

In this session we will introduce the Zero-Trust Triad Framework for a comprehensive cyber security solution that spans all IT assets and users across an organization.

Join us in this session to learn:
• The latest strategies and considerations when architecting a zero-trust solution that include identities, devices and data
• How to secure your business on-premises and through cloud adoptions    
• To control risk while expanding remote workers and broadening use of devices

Introducing the Zero-Trust Triad Framework for End-to-End Cyber Security

The cloud has fundamentally changed the IT and security landscape by breaking down traditional approaches to security with the need for new strategies that move security closer to the new perimeter: data and identities. This panel discussion will address the current state of cloud security, practical approaches for protecting data and identities in the cloud with zero trust strategies that focus on centralized encryption, key management, cloud access management and identity governance strategies.

Roundtable: Securing Data and Identities in the Cloud

If the recent race to the cloud has taught us anything, it is that businesses and organizations of every shape and size are embracing it. 

However, this has created significant security and compliance challenges, especially for small and medium-sized businesses. While larger enterprises have the resources to deploy and manage an enterprise-wide security infrastructure and strategy, the SMB community has not because of the investment and skills required, especially when it comes to complex data security and access management regulatory requirements.

Join this webinar to learn how a cloud first, easily consumable alternative for data protection and access management can help this significant and incredibly economically important business sector can implement security in easier and more cost effective manner. Specifically, you will hear about the following:
• How adopting a cloud first approach can help achieve compliance and increase data protection 
• Why encrypting data is not the monster task SMBs believe it to be
• How other SMBs are addressing the challenge of  being forced by their supply chains to adopt encryption as part of their supply agreements
• Why SMBs are more at risk from brand damage, financial ruin if a data breach occurs and how cloud based encryption will address this challenge 
• How Thales is enabling the SMB to change the game

Cloud Security: Now It Is a Game Changer for SMBs

Today’s economy is driven by data and the most successful companies are those that can use data to get closer to their customers, create new products and operate more efficiently. Cloud services are a key enabler in this. They allow the capture, storage and use of vast amounts of data. They enable the rapid development and deployment of new applications as well as the modernization of existing ones. 

Concerns over Risk & Compliance Are Slowing Adoption
However, the use of these services causes concerns over risk and compliance and these are slowing the adoption of cloud services. While organizations understand how their internal controls meet their compliance obligations the same is not true for the use of cloud services. It is also clear that many of the security incidents result from the customer’s own use of these services. For example, security and compliance are often outside the skills of DevOps teams or are overlooked and this can lead to the existence of critical vulnerabilities that can be exploited. An additional concern is the risk of government interference in the operation of the service or demands for access to the data.

Information Protection for the Hybrid Cloud
To benefit from the opportunities provided by cloud services it is essential that organizations fully understand their responsibilities, and these are centered around access to data. The customer is always responsible for ensuring that their obligations around this access are met and that their controls for this are effective. This means taking a data-centric approach to cloud security and compliance. This webinar will highlight:
- The challenges around security and compliance in today’s hybrid IT environment
- The information protection lifecycle and how this is applied in the hybrid cloud
- Why you need to control access and manage how your data is encrypted
- What else you need to take care of

There is an old Chinse saying, where there is opportunity there is also risk. This applies to the digital transformation journey many businesses are undertaking today. Businesses are driving significant digital transformation initiatives in order to accelerate performance and create new opportunities. Much of this transformation is being powered by the cloud. This means that more data and information is being stored in the cloud, creating significant risk especially for cyberattacks and data breaches. This interactive Tech Talk will discuss the challenges of maintaining a strong security posture in the cloud and how to think ahead of attacks before placing sensitive data in the cloud.  This session will also present a playbook of practical steps organizations should follow for cloud security.
