Discover how edge computing is coming of age

Organizations are looking for ways to protect against threats across a growing attack surface, and extended detection and response, or XDR, can help do this. However, while XDR delivers the centralized visibility, improved threat detection, and automated response that analysts need, the technology is complex. Service providers can provide the support organizations need to deploy and manage the tools that feed into their XDR solution

The endpoint is often the first point of attack for a threat actor, which makes managing and securing it of critical importance to organizations both large and small. By integrating additional telemetry sources, XDR extends the capabilities of endpoint detection and response (EDR) tools to provide a more complete picture of threats.
Join this 30-minute session to learn how XDR helps deliver the security outcomes organizations seek by protecting across network, endpoint, and cloud environments.

Agenda
• What is XDR, and what’s driving the need for it?
• How service providers help ensure stronger, smarter integrations
• XDR options: Native vs. open
• Why service providers can support better security outcomes

As cybersecurity evolves, organizations must adapt to the ever-changing threat landscape to protect their critical assets. In this webinar, we will delve into two emerging paradigms in cybersecurity: SASE (secure access service edge) and zero trust architecture. SASE represents a transformational approach to network security that consolidates networking and security functions. It aims to provide secure access to applications and resources, regardless of the user's location, while reducing management complexity. On the other hand, zero trust architecture challenges the traditional security perimeter by assuming that no user or device can be trusted by default, requiring continuous verification and authentication to all resources. It shifts the focus from perimeter-based security to a more granular and dynamic approach, minimizing the attack surface while preventing lateral network movement. 

In this webinar, we will provide insights on the fundamentals, benefits, and implementation considerations of SASE and zero trust architectures. Join us to learn how these two paradigms can work in tandem to provide a robust and comprehensive security strategy for your organization.

SASE and zero trust architecture: Complementing or competing?

Ransomware is one of the biggest threats for organizations nowadays. The expectation is that this threat will grow even further. That is because ransomware is such a lucrative business case for cybercriminals: organizations are too often unprepared for these attacks and decide to pay the ransom, while ransomware components are readily available. This webinar will investigate these factors and explain how organizations can become more resilient against these attacks. We will be using examples of recent ransomware attacks in different industries. Given the complexity and variety of new ransomware threats emerging daily, it can be difficult for IT teams of any size to figure out how to detect ransomware and respond to it while managing the rest of their cybersecurity needs. To address such a dynamic problem requires a more holistic approach to vulnerability management, and to be the most effective, it will also require cross-organizational coordination. 
Agenda:
• Introductions
• Overview of Cyber Risks and Top Cyber Impact
• Ransomware Attack
• Anatomy of a ransomware attack
• Evolution of ransomware
