A thought-provoking webinar programme developed from over three decades of collaborating with our Members across global business, government bodies, legislators and cyber security experts.

In 2022, observed cloud exploitation cases grew by 95%. As organisations migrate more of their operations to the cloud, it is imperative to understand the motivations and strategies of these cloud adversaries to effectively defend against attacks.

CrowdStrike’s 2023 Cloud Risk Report puts a spotlight on the adversaries targeting enterprise cloud environments. Register to learn key trends in adversary activity, real-world stories of attacks on the cloud, the critical oversights leaving organisations vulnerable and guidance for defending against cloud-conscious adversaries. 

You'll learn about how:

- Adversaries are sharpening cloud TTPs
- Identity is a key access point in the cloud
- Human error drives cloud risk

The Rise of the Cloud-Conscious Adversary

Cyber asset discovery - the process of identifying and managing all devices, endpoints, and resources connected to a network, is a market projected to grow from $100M in 2021 to $4bn in 2030. Organisations from across all industries are facing a rise in cyber threats and are setting their sights on asset discovery solutions to avoid losing ground to bad actors.  

This panel session features ISF Analyst, Mark Ward in conversation with:

- Peter West –  Assistant Head, Defensive Cyber Organisation at UK Ministry of Defence, with 20 years’ experience across the MoD as a Crown Servant in Project and Programme Delivery.

- Justin Stouder – Chief Technology Officer at FireMon with over 20 years' experience building world-class software development and operations organisations.

Join this panel discussion to learn about:

- The rising significance and growth of asset discovery
- The pivotal role data quality and speed play in decision making
- The consequences of inadequate discovery and overcoming common challenges

Cyber Asset Discovery: From 'nice-to-have' to mission critical

Having a successful security posture is more easily said than done. It takes a well-designed strategy for a host of multi-faceted parameters to come together to truly bring security to an organization. 

Security Culture, being the ideas, customs, and social behaviours of an organization that influence security, is a powerful tool to help nurture and sustain that which keeps your organization safe.

In this session, we'll be hearing from industry expert Jelle Wieringa about how you can use security culture to your advantage. Based on statistics from academic research, combined with real-world experience, you'll hear everything you need to know to better understand what it can bring you and your organization

In this session you will learn:

- What defines a Security Culture
- How can you measure and better understand your existing security culture
- What are proven and practical ways to grow your security culture?

Security Culture: Making cybersecurity an active part of your organization

The cloud is big business, and threat actors know it. 

Ransomware attacks in the cloud are steadily increasing in both volume and sophistication, and organisations are struggling with a common cloud security challenge. The issue boils down to: how do we secure our cloud-enabled business without throttling innovation? After all, no one went to the cloud to slow down.

Join SentinelOne as they speak plainly about cloud defence in depth. From build time to runtime, they will discuss the complementary roles of agentless (“shift-left”) and agent-based (“shield right”) security layers. Covering both CNAPP (Cloud-Native Application Protection Platforms) and real-time cloud workload protection (CWPP), they will examine a cloud ransomware incident, and share insights to help your organisation accelerate innovation while operating securely.

Shift Left, Shield Right: The role of CWPP in a CNAPP world

Hybrid IT environments are no longer the exception for the modern enterprise; they are now the rule. 

Embracing hybrid clouds allow your organisation to innovate more rapidly and achieve better business outcomes through technology. But you have to achieve these outcomes while minimising risk - that’s the goal. 

Faced with this new reality, join Nachiket Joshi from CrowdStrike in July for a webinar exploring how IT leaders like yourself can manage and secure a continuously changing attack surface.

The Perfect Storm: Preparing today for the future state of cloud security

Even with the recent focus on increasing diversity across the industry, 75% of cyber security roles continue to be held by men. 

Particularly against the backdrop of a staffing and skills shortage, it is evident that there is a need to remove structural and cultural barriers to attract and retain diverse talent.

In this webinar, the ISF has brought together a panel of women, each with a unique and illuminating path into the industry. As a result, they are passionate about sharing their experiences to support and cultivate a community of aspiring female information security professionals. 

During this session, our panel will be discussing:

• how to break through the institutional and cultural barriers in the information security profession
• how to attract and retain a more diverse workforce from a variety of professional backgrounds
• the possible paths into the industry and the required skillsets for individuals at all career levels
• the network and training groups available for women in cyber.

Why Women Should Choose Cyber

In this session, we will demonstrate how the cross reference can help security practitioners leverage the two resources to deploy effective controls over their multi-cloud environments.

Join Benoit Heynderickx (ISF) and Lefteris Skoutaris (CSA) on the 18th April 2023 to learn:
- what is the CSA CCM, and the importance of cloud controls
- how SOGP can be used by focusing on those controls that are mapped to CSA CCM  
- how to utilise the mapping to determine gaps within your cloud environments and where both the SOGP and the CSA CCM can be used to resolve these gaps.

Using the SOGP and CCM for Multi-Cloud Security

We all know the story. The threat landscape is ever-evolving and security teams have to stay ahead of the curve and protect their networks. But what if we told you that the majority of security investments are failing?  

The reality is that your tools are only good as the data they receive. If you do not have the capability to see exactly what is on your network, then how can you expect your security tools to do what you paid them to do? 

It’s time to illuminate the blind spots and really protect your perimeter. 

Join FireMon on the 21st March, as they cover: 
• the evolving security landscape and the risks facing your organisation today 
• why asset discovery and identification is crucial to securing your environment, for good 
• how to maximise your security tool investments and extract their full value  
• how illuminating your blind spots delivers ROI, prevents breaches, data loss and reputational damage 
• beyond visibility, managing network access correctly.

Illuminate the Blind Spots: Why your security investments are failing

With organisations increasingly relying on web applications, it is more vital than ever for CISOs to adopt a proactive approach to security testing.

This webinar will provide valuable insights and strategies to help you safeguard your organisation's critical assets. Register to learn more about the most pressing threats in application security and how to effectively mitigate them.

Threats to Watch Out For: A CISOs guide to application security

Phishing has been, is, and will continue to be one of the most prolific and challenging security problems faced by organisations worldwide. 

As a result, it is imperative to identify ways in which your organisation can fight back from a technology, operational, and leadership perspective.

Join us on 7th February 2023 at 14:00 GMT as the panel explore how AI/ML-based email security vendors, front-line CISOs, and board advisors view this problem and provide insight into how we can all start tackling phishing head-on.

Perspectives on Fighting Back Against Phishing Attacks

As 2022 comes to a close, we find ourselves faced with as challenging a landscape as ever: a global cost of living crisis spiralling out of control, tensions disturbingly rising between nation states, and a seemingly unsurmountable climate emergency.

Amongst all of this macro-economic, geopolitical, social and environmental change, our global dependence on technology is being exposed day by day. Organisations and governments are struggling to keep pace with threat actors, and citizens’ privacy, public service delivery and critical national infrastructure are all at risk.

To prepare leaders to step up to the challenge and guide their organisations back from tipping point, Chief Executive of the ISF Steve Durbin will be taking to the stage once again for our annual Emerging Threats webinar.

Join us on Wednesday 7th December 2022 at 14:00 GMT/09:00 EST for insight into the key information security threats to look out for in 2023, and guidance on how you can prepare against them.

Throughout this webinar, Steve will explore the following threats:
• continued growth of cyber attacks - the rise of ransomware as a service and the cyber mercenary
• the poisoning of the data well - data manipulation compromising the accuracy and credibility of information, damaging the integrity of decision making
• the world of the never normal - the constantly shifting security, regulatory and ethical landscape in which we all need to operate.

ISF Annual Threat Update: Emerging threats for 2023

Information risk assessments enable organisations to select controls or other treatment options that are commensurate with risk in order to reduce the frequency and impact of information security incidents.

ISF materials, including the SOGP, have been developed to support the risk assessment process of identifying business impacts, assessing key threats and vulnerabilities, in addition to treating information risks. These materials complement organisational approaches to information risk assessment and, when used in conjunction with ISF Risk methodologies such as IRAM2 or QIRA, enables an organisation to keep information risk within acceptable limits.

Join Gareth Haken, Principal Analyst at the ISF, for our final webinar in the ISF Cyber Security Showcase Week, where he considered all these different materials, and presented how they can be combined and used to effectively manage risk.

Managing Risk the ISF Way

The digital transformation has affected all sectors: automotive, industry, banking, health, and since the pandemic the education sector has been transformed, not to mention remote working.

From the industrial network to the cloud, the attack surface has become fragmented, and hacker groups have become more and more agile in exploiting vulnerabilities that have often been present for many months. Finding attack paths before they are exploited across the entire attack surface is changing our approach to vulnerability management. Companies need to identify critical assets as soon as possible to reduce the risk of attack.

The Future CISO: Securing the digital organisation of tomorrow

The post-digital transformation reality has exposed businesses differently across newly adopted IoT eco-systems and expanding regulations targeting cyber negligence. Exposure has been realised as incidents have increased in frequency, cost, and complexity. From business engagement to technology risk oversight, an integrated strategy is essential to reinforcing and measuring your InfoSec risk program.

In this session, Jorge highlights some of the latest market insights from InfoSec leaders, peers, and industry analysts, examining the driving factors behind business challenges in managing risk. He also discusses how scaling your approach to managing IT and data assets, risks, controls and policies can deliver a more complete picture to better measure and inform program investments.

Key takeaways:
 - how to evaluate your current IT-ecosystem and centralise key data points to enhance visibility to risk across critical areas of the business
 - enhance risk response by aligning with the business to transition from low to high trust risk and security culture
 - identify areas for efficiency gains to focus on strategic program investment.

Keeping Pace with Cyber Security by Scaling IT Governance & Data Risk Management

Phishing continues to be the preferred method that cybercriminals use to gain access to a business-critical information. While many organisations have turned to technology to combat the threat, criminals blend their own technology and creativity to bypass legacy security systems and launch their attack – meaning your business’s customer, employee, and financial data is one corrupt email away from a breach.

As the threats gain in volume, organisations need to deploy a modern approach to email security to protect their business.

Watch Justin Pemberton, Senior Director of Sales for UK & Ireland at IRONSCALES, as he expands upon:

 - the types of attacks that sneak through legacy email security software
 - tips for creating a modern, hybrid approach to fight phishing
 - examples of the hybrid approach in action.

The Modern Approach to Fight Phishing

Once viewed as an expensive luxury, developments in threat intelligence have enabled the capability to move into the realm of quicker, real-time updates of an organisation’s threat landscape and potential threat events.

However, threat intelligence can provide value only if it enables the business to take action. If skilfully crafted and employed, threat intelligence informs decisions and enables actions that equip an organisation to react not only to today’s threats, but also to prepare for tomorrows.

Join Max Brook, Research Analyst at the ISF, as he draws from his experiences in writing the latest ISF Threat Intelligence report, to get to the core of what intelligence really is and explore how you can develop and maintain an effective threat intelligence capability – helping your organisation to understand the threats you face, and make well-informed decisions about how to address them.

Threat Intelligence: An evolving capability

Organisations around the world rely on Industrial Control Systems (ICS) assets and environments to support their business operations and processes every day.

Through innovations in ICS technology and broader digital transformation, these assets are increasingly breaking out of what were previously isolated environments and reaching out to external networks and even the internet, dramatically adjusting the attack surface.

Understanding and protecting these often-critical environments is of the utmost importance. Tune in as Paul Holland, Principal Research Analyst at the ISF, offers his unique author’s insight into the ISF’s research on protecting ICS, and how collaborating with other teams will enhance the way organisations can protect their key resources.
