#IMOS18 - Here Come the Robots: What and When to Automate Your Security

In today’s competitive business landscape and knowledge-based economy, we all rely on technology to be more productive and make our lives easier.
Organisations thrive when they trust their workforce to collaborate on valuable IP & work with critical systems. Perhaps, in their eagerness, some overlook the importance of verifying user trust with technology. This can leave an organisation open to the risk of losing data that is sensitive to the employees, customers and the business.
In a recent study of senior IT decision makers, 54% felt their organisations’ customers were more likely to care about cybersecurity compared to general employees, contractors/freelancers & third party vendors (35% – 36%).
As a result, it’s important for the security team to have the tools and policies in place to automatically monitor and quickly triage any risks that come with high levels of trust, to ensure the early detection of insider threats and ability to respond before an incident occurs.
In this webinar you will learn:
•Why increasing trust within the workplace is key for business success
•Why trust without verification can be a significant risk
•How to build trust through visibility and early detection of insider threats

The perimeter has shifted. Your users directly access cloud applications from everywhere and data no longer reside only in datacenters. Digital transformations like SD-WAN, IoT and cloud make securing your infrastructure, applications and data complicated. SD-WAN enabled branches directly connect to the internet, but they don’t have the ability to replicate a full HQ security stack. IoT leads to an explosion of non-standard devices using non-standard protocols, making them harder to secure. Every new change doesn’t equal need for a new security tool.

What’s needed is a scalable, simple and integrated security approach that leverages existing infrastructure that organizations already own. The Domain Name System (DNS) is critical to the fabric of the internet and any IP based communication, serving as the perfect foundation for security because it is simple to deploy, ubiquitous in networks, is needed anyway for connectivity and can scale to the size of the Internet.

Join this webinar to learn how leveraging DNS as a foundational security architecture for digital transformations can:
•Protect your brand by securing your traditional networks and transformations like SD-WAN, Cloud and IoT
•Reduce time and cost of your enterprise threat defense
•Automate responses and provide data to the rest of the ecosystem

It is one year since GDPR came into force and the regulation became the data protection standard for European businesses.

Since then, fears that huge monetary penalties would become the norm have not come into fruition and there have been few headlines about businesses struggling to comply.

However, research continues to claim that businesses are not actually compliant with the regulation, that the cost to comply can still be prohibitive and that for many organizations exactly how to comply remains a mystery.

In this webinar, we will assess the first year under the rule of GDPR, explore what we have learned and cut through some of the hype from before and after the deadline.

Key takeaways:

•What have we learned from the first year of GDPR, and what has changed?
•Are businesses still failing to comply with GDPR, and if so, why?
•What does GDPR look like for the UK following Brexit?

In this webinar, we will explore the concept of zero trust, assess why it is needed in the modern enterprise and outline how micro-segmentation can help win the zero trust race for organizations.

The Domain Name System (DNS) plays a critical role in modern network connectivity. Unfortunately, it is also a central part of many cyber-attacks as DNS is involved in more than 90% of malware/ransomware and nearly half of all data exfiltration incidents.

So how exactly how do cybercriminals use DNS to carry out attacks? In this webinar we will examine the many ways cybercriminals exploit the unique properties of DNS.

Key takeaways:

• The various phases in the intrusion kill chain and how DNS is used in each phase
• The technical mechanisms behind DNS reconnaissance, protocol anomalies, exploits, hijacking, command and control (C&C) communications, DGA threats and more
• How DNS-based attacks work—through real word examples, including malware, phishing campaigns, and advanced persistent threats (APTs)
