The new EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) rule looms and will take affect in May 2018, but only a third of companies are on track to be compliant by the due date. GDPR is the most significant change in data privacy regulation in more than 20 years. It represents an extraordinary shift in the way businesses will be expected to operate when they gather, process, maintain, and protect customer data. Any organization that retains information of EU citizens must be in compliance or face huge fines of up to 4% of worldwide turnover.

In this webinar series you will hear from industry experts facing the same challenges you face and find out how they're meeting and surpassing critical implementation check points, and you will learn what actions other organisations are taking preparation for data protection – not only for GDPR, but for long-term data protection.

Governments continue to try to regulate cyberspace, often with little effective impact. Security professionals struggle to design and operate infrastructure that will comply with rules written with Semantically Intentional Ambiguous Meaning (SIAM). Learn from the classrooms of one of the world's great universities the new methods for navigating those challenges and putting in place rules that are effective for managing infrastructure.

Digitization has become deeply embedded in enterprise strategy, as nearly all businesses and activities have been slated for digital transformations. The significant advantages of digitization, with respect to customer experience, revenue, and cost, have become increasingly compelling, and we are starting to see digital transformations in risk create real business value by improving efficiency and the quality of risk decisions.

The state of risk management at most global, multiregional, and regional banks is abundant with opportunity. Current processes are resource intensive and insufficiently effective, as indicated by average annual fines above $400 million for compliance risk activities alone. By improving the efficiency and effectiveness of current risk-management approaches, digital risk initiatives can reduce operating costs for risk activities by up to 30 percent, and a digitized risk function can provide better monitoring and control and more effective regulatory compliance. On this webinar our panel of experts will discuss digital innovations for risk management success.

Getting hacked is now a matter of “when”, not “if. As a result, the ability to detect and respond to attacks before significant damage is done has become one of the most important issues in information security.

A wide variety of tools and services are available with new technologies and capabilities being introduced regularly.

We will take a look at the important considerations for organizations seeking to monitor their network security via in-house resources, commercial tools, and/or managed security services. This will include important factors that will dictate the cost and effectiveness of security monitoring efforts.

Viewers will learn:
• Case studies and Current trends in Cyber attacks
• Security Metrics
• Oversight of third parties
• How to measure cybersecurity preparedness
• Automated approaches to integrate Security into DevOps

This talk will address how we need to develop and configure systems and software to eliminate common forms of malware and exploits. It is an engineering challenge that requires substantial change in tools and how we write applications and operating systems and how we design hardware. None of it is rocket science, but the pieces must be put together.

Viewers will learn about:
- Attack vectors and hidden risks
- How to build better dams, rather than trying to patch every leak and crack

Do we want our dams to be strong and safe, or is it more important to ensure that we can easily blow up the dams of any opponents, even if ours will break too? As a society increasingly living downstream of the dams, building better dams is a matter of survival.

Technology is constantly evolving, and IT infrastructure and cloud are no exception. A rising number of enterprises are realizing it’s not a question of public OR private cloud, but rather a multi-cloud strategy that involves the best of both worlds.

The next evolution of IT infrastructure is true hybridization-- scaling and workload enablement for the full-stack compute layer, creating an environment that allows for more informed decision making. This means decision makers have all relevant information to make cost-effective choices on where workloads go and how to efficiently control them. Hybridization is about gaining the full competitive advantage that comes from the IT infrastructure itself.

Join this interactive Q&A panel and ask your cloud, hybridization and infrastructure questions.

As the number of internet-connected devices skyrockets into the billions, a data security strategy is an increasingly important part of any organization’s ability to manage and protect critical information. Enterprises are migrating to the cloud in droves, however, protecting data in the cloud remains a challenge as employees push to access cloud apps from any device, anywhere. In the last year alone, 1 in 3 organizations were hacked more than 5 times, and with the increased number of attacks the financial cost of security incidents is also rising.

In many cases, breaches are caused by a combination of benevolent insiders, targeted attacks, and malicious insiders. For example, targeted attacks are often enabled inadvertently by well-meaning insiders who fail to comply with data or security policies, which can lead to a data breach. In this webinar, our panel will discuss major trends impacting cyber security – from the rising frequency of attacks and types of threats that organizations should be concerned about the most, and they will adress the risks, priorities, and capabilities that are top of mind for enterprises as they migrate to the cloud.

As organizations continue to ramp-up their migration to cloud-based environments, they will need to account for the associated security and control risks. There are hidden dangers and blind spots that arise through the use of virtualization technology in the data center. These hidden dangers and blind spots become more prevalent as business-critical applications are increasingly deployed on the public cloud. This is a problem considering that an organization’s operations are dependent on a cloud environment that inherently has a huge visibility gap.

Many are now making the necessary changes to keep data secure in the cloud. This talk will focus on how to pragmatically accomplish cloud security through increased emphasis on cloud network visibility and cloud access security brokers. Enterprises that can properly implement appropriate cloud network visibility and cloud access security brokers will experience a third fewer security failures. Learn about practical steps and tools that you can use for accomplishing cloud security in your organization.

Cloud computing is an increasingly vital element of information security. It’s used to protect sensitive data; for identity and access management; for network security and to aid with incident response. However it’s not without it’s own set of risks and has been hit in the past with significant and newsworthy breaches.

Join this interactive Q&A panel with top cloud and security experts as they discuss the future of the cloud and considerations to take for protecting sensitive data when it's held in the Cloud.

Cloud Security- Protection Against Evolving Security Threats
Cloud Security Protection is improving, but how can we protect against Evolving Security Threats? How can we win?
In this session we will delve into some of the security risks associated with cloud environments and what can be done to protect your applications and data that reside in the cloud by utilizing a new technology known as Software Defined Perimeter (SDP) as well as encryption and tokenization.

With so many high-profile cyber attacks and breaches in the news, it is no wonder security is cited as the biggest concern of storing data in the cloud. The amount of critical data being sent to the cloud is on the rise. In fact, more than half of business-critical data is likely to reside there by 2019.

Join this keynote panel of experts as they discuss:
- The state of cloud storage and security in 2017
- The biggest threats to data security in the cloud
- How organizations are solving these security challenges

Speakers:
- Ted Harrington, Executive Partner, Independent Security Evaluators
- Paula Greve, ‎Principal Engineer, Data Science McAfee Labs
- Ken Hosac, VP, Cradlepoint
