Securing Open-Source Dependencies at Enterprise Scale

The current data security and privacy protection landscape is awash with tools, acronyms, buzzwords that promise to make data breaches and privacy incidents a thing of the past. Yet hotel chains, healthcare providers, banks, department stores and even governments constantly fall victim to data breaches, ransomware or nation-state attacks. 

The plain truth is that tools are only as good as the people that use them and the processes that go with it. Two thousand years ago, the Roman empire had better military tools than the nations they conquered. Yet through time, the Romans fell to the barbarians and are merely remembered through their ruins. Likewise, companies with the latest and most buzzworthy technology implemented still manage to fall victim to attacks. 

In this presentation, industry thought leader Ralph Villanueva will tap into over 15 years’ experience of data security and privacy protection to show why ultimately, the people behind the tools and the processes they use matter more in securing your organization’s data. 

Key Takeaways:
 - How to best deploy tools in the most cost-effective way to optimize benefits.
 - How to best deploy tools to mitigate data security risks from internal and external threats. 
 - The importance of a balanced and holistic approach to data security that equally considers people, processes and technology.

As cloud supply chain attacks escalate in sophistication, traditional SBOMs alone prove insufficient for comprehensive security. While SBOMs provide valuable component inventories, they lack runtime verification capabilities—creating a critical blind spot that malicious actors increasingly exploit. This gap between static analysis and runtime behavior represents one of the most significant vulnerabilities in modern cloud environments.

The "Bill of Behavior" (BoB) approach addresses this challenge by providing vendor-supplied profiles of expected runtime behaviors. Generated using eBPF technology, BoBs codify legitimate syscalls, file access patterns and network communications. This enables immediate anomaly detection without custom rule creation, allowing organizations to verify software integrity throughout the supply chain and during execution, dramatically reducing the attack surface while simplifying security operations.

Join Dr. Constanze Roedig, Key Researcher at SBA-Research and Founder of Fusioncore.ai, to discover how this emerging standard complements existing SBOM frameworks to create verifiable trust in your cloud ecosystem.

- Build security awareness programs that create lasting behavioral change

Securing the Human Element: Why People Remain Cloud Security's Top Vulnerability in 2025

Insider threats are one of the most challenging security risks in multicloud environments, where authorized users can exploit fragmented access controls and limited visibility across platforms. When organizations lack comprehensive oversight of user activities, data flows and privilege escalation paths, the risk posed by human error and malicious insiders is much greater.



Multicloud architectures amplify insider threat risks through inconsistent identity management, scattered audit trails, and complex permission structures that create blind spots for security teams. Strategic threat modeling designed around insider risks enables organizations to map user access patterns, identify privilege abuse scenarios, and implement behavioral monitoring across all cloud platforms before incidents occur.



Join Sandeep Tripathi, IT Solutions Designer at Daimler Truck AG, to discover systematic approaches for detecting and preventing insider threats in complex multicloud environments.



Key Takeaways:

Mitigate Insider Threats in Multicloud Through Strategic Modeling

Every minute your cloud infrastructure grows, it creates new entry points for potential attacks. As organizations rush to embrace cloud innovations, they're unknowingly building digital labyrinths where traditional security measures fall short.

Cloud security threats are often perceived as purely technical challenges, but the human factor remains one of the most significant and underestimated risks. Misconfigurations, weak passwords, phishing attacks, and inadequate training open doors to breaches even in sophisticated environments. Employees inadvertently expose sensitive data through social engineering, while administrators overlook crucial updates. Insider threats pose significant risks when cloud systems are accessible from anywhere.

True Tales from AppSec Customers

Unlike monolithic applications of the past, where coding was all in the same language, an average cloud-native application can have anything from 50-5,000 different components. The problem is, any one of those could be rife with vulnerabilities that present an expanding attack surface. Although organizations use an abundance of AST tools to test their code, they all lack results correlation, and that missing piece distorts their view of their overall security risks.

Checkmarx recognizes the inefficiency of trying to manually correlate results from the many siloed testing solutions, and the deficiency of alternate solutions that merely aggregate results. It led us to develop Checkmarx Fusion to provide advanced correlation in modern application development environments.

In this webinar, join Stephen Gates, senior solution specialist, and Miki Sharon, senior product manager, Checkmarx, for a deep dive on Checkmarx Fusion and Checkmarx One AST Platform.

    After this webinar, you’ll fully understand why your AppSec testing approach is flawed.

Without Correlation, Your AppSec Testing Approach Needs an Update

Application Developers are increasing taking the “DevSecOps” ethos to heart. They are realizing that security is not just something that gets bolted onto apps or around networks. Instead, security needs to be built into the applications that they create. While many have turned to SAST solutions to identify vulnerabilities such as Log4Shell in Log4J, others rightfully wonder how to protect the code that they write themselves, code that – by definition – contains working examples of how to penetrate the security perimeter that their InfoSec colleagues have put in place.

This webinar shows:

* How threat actors reverse engineer applications
* How a “Protection Blueprint” secures applications
* What unobfuscated and disassembled machine code looks like to a threat actor
* How obfuscated machine code makes the threat actor’s job more difficult
* What anti-tamper measures do to prevent reverse engineering of applications

How to Build a Blueprint for Secure Software

A lot is expected of software developers these days; they are expected to be experts in everything despite very little training. Throw in the IT security team (often with little-to-no knowledge of how to build software) telling developers what to do and how to do it, and the situation becomes strained. This silo-filled, tension-laced situation, coupled with short deadlines and pressure from management, often leads to stress, anxiety and less-than-ideal reactions from developers and security people alike. This session will explain how job insecurities can be brought out by IT leadership decisions, and how this can lead to real-life vulnerabilities in software. This is not a talk about “feelings;” this is a talk about creating programs, governance and policies that ensure security throughout the entire SDLC.

No more laying blame and pointing fingers, it’s time to put our egos aside and focus on building high-quality software that is secure. Application security expert Tanya Janca will explore the cause and effect of insecurities and other behavioral influencers and present several detailed and specific solutions that can be implemented at your own place of work, immediately.

Limiting the Impact of Future Ransomware Threats

Securing your network against bad actors requires visibility to detect and respond to the inevitable attacks on your organization. You can’t stop what you can’t see! The good news is you have the data you need in your network data. The bad news is that you may not be using that data to identify and mitigate cyberattacks. 

Join us in this webinar to learn the innovative ways that Advanced Network Detection and Response, based on scalable deep packet inspection from your network, will help your organization achieve comprehensive security protection with:

• Always on, real-time detection of network activity to halt attackers in their tracks

• Visibility into your dynamic attack surface and its traffic

• Lateral movement tracking of attack to respond and mitigate quickly

• Unlimited historical perspective of attack

Leverage Network Data To Minimize Your Cybersecurity Risk

Timely remediation: It’s critical to responding to active threats in an environment. Knowing when (and when not) to apply automation is equally important. Given the speed at which threat actors can progress through the attack lifecycle, configuring automated remediation steps can go a long way. Hear how Expel approaches incident response and puts auto-remediation into practice.

The steps to sensible auto-remediation

Threat detection has become an important consideration for entities of all sizes and verticals. What originally began as logging and security-centric alerting by point products has morphed into a multi-million dollar industry of threat detection and response solutions and services. Offerings are comprised of vendor-agnostic log collection, analytics and correlation capabilities, threat intelligence feeds, and other tools geared towards reducing mean time to detect and respond. 

In this session, we’ll review the evolution of log collection and discuss the major components of today’s detection services and solutions. Viewers who are debating whether to outsource their detection and investigation needs or build their own SOC teams and manage their own solution will come away with much food for thought.

Understand Threat Detection and Response Solutions and Services

Organisations have never been more connected or vulnerable. Threats evolve at rapid pace and cybersecurity has failed to keep up. 
Proactive and preventive cybersecurity measures have previously been little more than an aspiration. No more! Machine learning and artificial intelligence allows us to stop cyberthreats in their tracks.

Join Jonathan Jackson – Director Sales Engineering, from the BlackBerry Cybersecurity team in APAC to learn:
- The current cybersecurity trends 
- What’s changed?
- How you can apply prevention-first security to your own organisation to combat cyber threats.

It’s time to outsmart and outlast modern cyber threats.

The Evolution of Prevention-First Cybersecurity

Organizations face a constant barrage of cyber threats that could lead to business disruption, intellectual property theft, and reputation damage. But preventing such attacks has become increasingly challenging due to business factors like supporting the remote worker population, connecting IT to third-party partners, and developing new types of applications for digital transformation. 

How can CISOs balance the need for aggressive IT initiatives for business enablement while managing and mitigating cyber risk? ESG Senior Principal Analyst and Fellow, Jon Oltsik, will discuss best practices for cyber-threat and breach prevention that can protect and support the business.

Outwit Attackers with a Proactive Cybersecurity Plan

Combating Cyber Threats & Breach Prevention 2022

Threats like malware and denial-of-service attacks have been around since the earliest days of the internet, and the cybersecurity industry has created generations of threat detection and response tools to identify and remediate them. As security threats continue to evolve and advance, the tools to identify and stop them need to evolve as well.

This panel of security experts will explore how security teams can shift form using reactive to proactive measures, utilizing a host of emerging tools and technologies. Join us to learn about:

--Endpoint-focused technologies such as XDR
--AI's role in reshaping threat detection
--Threat detection and intelligence services
--Security observability tools that improve breach detection
--Using tools within a zero-trust framework to limit vulnerabilities
