Demand for cloud services continues to increase as the benefits of cloud services change the way organisation manage their data and use of IT.

However, while these services can be implemented quickly and easily, with increased legislation and data privacy, the threat of cyber theft is on the increase and organisations must have a clear understanding of where their information is stored and how reliant these services are.

In this webinar, Steve Durbin, Managing Director of the ISF will discuss the risks associated with cloud computing and how to manage them, as well as how to maximise the benefits.

Compliance is a fundamental pillar to effective risk management at any company. However, simply complying with laws and regulations without considering the broader threat landscape can result in disaster. Certainly, a balance between compliance and risk is necessary. Ensuring compliance represents an organization's starting point, not the endgame, should be a priority.

In a dynamic threat environment, forward-thinking organizations have concluded that the goal of total protection is elusive and that a risk-based approach to governance and management of cybersecurity is necessary. That is easier said than done, as the way most information security professionals measure risk today fails to quantify threats in terms the business can understand and use. In this CPE accredited webinar, our panel of experts will discuss:

- Aligning risk and compliance metrics and controls across functional domains.
- Benchmarking existing process for managing the risks identified by stakeholders.
- Creating a transparent 'system of record' and collaborative process life-cycle management system.
- Prioritizing control efforts accordingly.
- Aligning compliance investments with compliance risk ratings and business priorities.

With the ever-increasing frequency and sophistication of security threats to organisations, business leaders need to have a comprehensive data security strategy to protect themselves. Information security practitioners have to think and plan beyond existing protection capabilities that are aimed at preventing threats only. Today's cyber security strategies need to protect an organisations mission critical assets in a way that is:

‒ balanced, providing a mixture of informative, preventative and detective security controls that complement each other
‒ comprehensive, providing protection before, during and after threat events materialise into security incidents
‒ end-to-end, covering the complete information life cycle.

This will enable organisations to match the protection provided with the sophistication of threats to such mission critical information assets. This webinar will look at past and present models and share ideas on how organisations can ‘future proof’ their strategies to combat next generation threats.

In particular in this webinar, Nick Frost, Principal Consultant at the ISF will discuss what actions can be taken to identify your most critical information assets, and how a modern day cyber security model needs to focus on prevention and detection of a data breach, and how to respond to a breach in order to reduce damage to brand and reputation.

The European Union’s new General Data Privacy Regulation (GDPR) came into force on May 25th, and began immediately reshaping the digital universe. According to IDC's 2017 GDPR Readiness Survey, 80% of companies were not prepared, and tech giants have already been sued for violating the terms, while major newspapers have been forced to restrict EU access to their websites for fear of noncompliance. Now two months after deadline, it's clear that large scale enterprises and their employees, are still not sure about what they need to do to comply.

In this CPE accredited webinar, our panel of experts will discuss how to adhere to the GDPR and boost the security and compliance foundations of your organization by managing the data risk.

Learning Objectives:

- Find out what your organization needs to uncover data risks and avoid fines.
- Discover the latest techniques to protect data and remediate breaches.
- Learn how handle data in cloud and ensure only the right people have access.
- Clarify the requirements for your enterprise to become compliant with GDPR.

This webinar is part of BrightTALK's Founders Spotlight Series, where each week we feature inspiring founders and entrepreneurs from across industries.

In this episode, Paul Kurtz, an internationally recognized expert on cybersecurity and the co-founder and CEO of TruSTAR Technology, will share his insight and expertise into the threat intelligence and security industry.
- What it means to found and run a security start up
- Where is the industry headed in the age of cyber attacks and high-profile breaches
- How to scale and grow a business in this hi-tech industry

Paul will be taking questions from the live audience so this session will be an excellent opportunity for any entrepreneurs or security professionals out there to have their questions answered.

About the Speaker:
Paul began working on cybersecurity at the White House in the late 1990s. He served in senior positions relating to critical infrastructure and counterterrorism on the White House's National Security and Homeland Security Councils under Presidents Clinton and Bush. After leaving government, Paul has held numerous private sector cybersecurity positions including founding the Cyber Security Industry Alliance (Acquired by Tech America), Executive Director of SAFECode, Managing Partner of Good Harbor Consulting in Abu Dhabi, and CISO of CyberPoint International.

Paul’s work in intelligence analysis, counterterrorism, critical infrastructure protection, and non-proliferation of weapons of mass destruction influenced his approach to cybersecurity. Specifically, the fields highlighted the need to build an exchange platform which addresses barriers to sharing information--bureaucratic, legal, and market risk and concerns--while providing immediate value to operators defending networks.

What new security requirements apply to Persistent Memory (PM)? While many existing security practices such as access control, encryption, multi-tenancy and key management apply to persistent memory, new security threats may result from the differences between PM and storage technologies. The SNIA PM security threat model provides a starting place for exposing system behavior, protocol and implementation security gaps that are specific to PM. This in turn motivates industry groups such as TCG and JEDEC to standardize methods of completing the PM security solution space.

Michelle Drolet CEO of Towerwall will be discussing the need for developing a solid Incident Response Program and doing Tabletop exercise throughout the year. An Incident Response Plan (IRP) will ensure information security incidents, once identified, will be handled and communicated appropriately. Consistency of how incidents are handled and communicated is paramount to a successful incident response.

The IRP provides a quick, organized, and effective response to computer-related and physical security incidents. The IRP’s mission is to prevent a serious loss of information, information assets, property, and customer confidence by providing an immediate, effective, and informed response to any event involving your information systems, networks, workplace, or data.

Security incident response is an organized approach to address and manage activities during and after a security breach. The goal of security incident response is to handle any information security incident in an organized and effective manner that limits damage to the organization and reduces recovery time and cost.

How do you go about defending a community that instinctively resists change and has the power to thwart you? You can try to alter human behavior, approach the problem through unobtrusive methods, or step aside and let a calamity educate the workforce. Since the last option isn’t really on the table while you are on the clock, a combination of the first two is the most likely approach. In this talk, we go through some readily implementable methods for narrowing the attack surface of your healthcare institution.

Data protection laws such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) are complex, and can impact a broad range of business roles, including legal, audit, HR and finance, not just IT. In achieving GDPR compliance, organizations should focus on getting these roles to work together in ongoing efforts to ensure governance, risk and compliance (GRC) across an organization, and not be distracted by the noise in the marketplace. Through the process of integrating GRC practices real value can be achieved, as long as all stakeholders work with one another and take practical, measured steps toward integration. Join our panel of experts on this CPE accredited webinar to learn how your organization can achieve this.
