Converged Cyber Security In The Era Of Cloud & Digital Risk.

The last 10 years have not just changed our applications and systems, but our entire businesses. Digital Transformation has been a key part of most large enterprise’s strategy, fueled by cloud services, mobile devices and ubiquitous connectivity, this is transformation continues to evolve. In the scramble to transform, cloud applications and cloud platforms became commonplace and with security struggling to cope, this led to an explosion of new tools, systems and procedures. Where Digital Transformation leads, Digital Risk follows, raising concerns about exposure from the existing cyber-security controls and their assumed risked models. Even these relatively modern approaches are starting to show their age, again struggling to stay ahead of the transforming cloud and network models. In a continually transforming environment, where agile is king, cloud comes first, apps are server-less, networks borderless, buildings don’t matter and employees are working everywhere, cyber-security must also transform. Our cyber-security thinking and approach must adapt to cater for this new risk reality and cut across both the business and technology silos. This is fundamentally changing the paradigm that cyber-security instrumentation, controls and people are working under. In this talk, we will explore how cyber-security organizations can navigate this change to deliver the security and risk out comes their leaders, users and customers expect.
